Quicksand – Premium Men’s Hair Styling Wax & Dry Shampoo for a High Hold, Ultra Matte Finish – Ideal Texture Product for Thin, Thick and All Hair Types – 2 oz, Travel Size

This is THE best mens hair product I have ever used. Not sticky, doesn’t make hairs clump together to look wet AND the style stays in place. My hair still looks great at the end of the work day … without feeling stiff. The scent is great too. This is the only product I’ve found that has dry shampoo added in. I think that’s the secret

I may have written a review on this hair wax in the past, but it really is the best hair product I have ever used. I have been using Hanz de Fuko products for 7-8 years, trying every version of product they sell and I love them all. Quicksand is my go to because it is truly a matte finish...it's made of sand so you can imagine, but it holds everything in place all day. No fibers, like other products. It's very creamy with a slight sandy feel, which makes your hair dry out too. Overall, the best.

Great product! Good hold with a texturizing end result, has a sandy feel to it that works great in my thick hair.

Keeps hair in place. Nice smell. Not oily. Expensive.

I have used the Aveda men's grooming clay for years and recently moved to Highland because of some ads that said it was awesome. Turns out that that I was missing with Aveda was longevity. The Aveda product simply disappeared when I got hot, or it was very humid, or it rained a little. Basically any moisture would make it simply disappear. I wanted something with better hold, and I didn't know until I tried something else. However, the Highland glacial clay is the polar opposite. It is made of wax and it is very sticky. Not only does it stay on your hair, but you have to rub it off your hands with a towel because soap and water have no effect on it. Also, I would pull out my hair when putting it on. Once I put it on my hair, my hair was flat and that was the way it stayed. It was simply too much. I was staring right down on the Goldilocks problem, so I did what everyone does in 2024, I conducted an online search, developed a list of candidates, and read reviews. I was stumped with several products, so I decided to buy the most popular one--Quicksand. This stuff is just right. It goes on pretty easily without pulling my hair out. Like Highland, you have to warm it up in your hands, but this is more clay and less wax. It lasts all day no matter the weather. It does not look slick, shiny, or greasy. Like the name implies, it leaves your hair dry looking. I put it on when my hair is barely damp. It makes my already thin hair a little flat at first. But over the morning, my hair rises to the desired look. Unlike Aveda or Highland, if the wind blows my hair, for example, I can run my hand through my hair without destroying the hold or the look. Sometimes when i first get up in the morning, my hair is like Doc Brown from Back to the Future, but all I have to do is push it back down and I'm good until I shower and start all over again. I don’t know what the "dry shampoo" thing is about, and I almost did not buy it because that was in the title. I would recommend that you give this a shot unless you want the slick or shiny look. See if you agree.

Does what it says it does, and for me that's good enough. It holds for hours and highly customizable.

I read so many good things about this product, particularly how good it was with next-day hair and reducing oil to the point where it could actually dry out your hair if you used too much. Upon first use, instead of the super-gritty sand-like consistency I was told to expect, it was super greasy with mild grit. Every time I used it, it made my hair wherever I applied it oily instead of dry and the hold was awful and short-lived no matter how much I used. I have fine, wavy hair and this product made my hair looked like I dunked it in grease every time I used it. Then I read that they changed their ingredients for all their products within the last few years, dramatically cheapening them. Please don’t fall for the same trick I did and pay premium price based on a reputation that is no longer valid.

I've bought in the past. I like the hold and the fact that it doubles as dry shampoo.
