Dax Hair Wax, 3.5 Ounce

I have thick, longish, wavy hair and Dax Wave and Groom has been in my toolkit for years. I love how it holds and shapes, but have never liked how hard it is to spread. I didn't know Dax Wax existed until recently. I used to be a big Paul Mitchell Dry Wax person, only it's kinda expensive and really does a number on pillows. Anyway, decided to pull the trigger on Dax Wax and I'm really happy I did. It goes on much easier than W&G. Less hold, but I think W&G can be overkill anyway. Let's my hair move around a little more and really shows off the texture. Overall, just an easier application with more lift and bounce than the red tin. Time will tell, but I think Dax Wax may just knock W&G out of rotation eventually, and that's no small feat. Plus it's just fun to say- DAX WAX!!!

As a lifelong gel user I got switched on to hair wax about 7 years ago and haven't looked back. I've tried a few different wax products but I always come back to this. It's so gentle on your hair and scalp (no irritation or flakes like with gel/mousse/spray) and is safe to leave in two days in a row. It takes a tiny bit more hand washing afterwards to get it off your hands, but the soft hold is so worth it. Compared to other wax products it's easier to work with and wash out.Works best in hair that is 99% dry. Wash/wet hair, brush, dry, and then apply for a great look. Washes out easily with regular shampoo, but clarifying shampoo might work better for you.

It would be easier to use if a bit creamier. At the same time, it takes only a little bit to style my hair and seems to stay that way all day. I'm hoping this one can will last a long time.

Good

This stuff is tame. No hold, thin, etc.I'd been looking for a Paul Mitchell Dry Hair Wax alternative. This is not it. If anyone knows of one, please post.

Good quality

I see so many complaints that it doesn't washout. I don't know how much they're using or what kind of high quality shampoos they apply, but it washes out fine for me. ...basic Head & Shoulders.

Gave this a 3 star because it does hold as it is advertised, but very difficult to wash out. It says washable on the lid, but inside the lid says "Use DAX Removing Shampoo for complete removal of All DAX Products". Had I known that, I would not have bought this.
