Aveda Men Pure-Formance Grooming Clay 75ml/2.5oz

I always keep coming back to this Aveda clay, I keep on experimenting with other brands that are half the price but they just dont cut it. Great clay, light enough so you dont feel its in your hair, firm enough to keep a natural-looking hold. I particularly like that its water-based and washes out and off your hands with just water, hate the oily residue types you can buy from other cheaper brands. Im not experimenting anymore..Aveda, you have a life long customer in me!

Ive tried like 20 other similar products and this styling clay is absolutely flawless. It lasts until I wash my hair, whether thats one day, or even three. I can run my fingers through it, put a hat on, anything, and one swipe of my fingers gets it back to exactly how I like to wear it. Also, one of these jars lasts me about 6 months. Highly recommended to anyone with short hair!!

Overall, an excellent product. Pros: Nice amount of malleable hold with good thickening effect. Doesnt make hair too sticky. Matte finish. Cons: Not crazy about the smell (wish someone would make a mens product that is unscented), although its not overbearing and Im starting to get used to it. Expensive - but you dont need a lot with each application. Other products tried: Personally (for my short-to-medium length, medium texture hair), it works better for me than the American Crew Fiber and the Bumble & Bumble Styling Creme.

So I really liked this product but here’s a warning. This will work best in drier climates. I live in Florida so the humidity attacks any product I use and ends up weighing my hair down. Because of how lightweight this product is I have to mix it with a sea salt spray or for example Avedas texturizing spray . However this will work perfect for most hair types.

The product works well - but the oder/scent is overpowering. They should take down the perfume level by an order of magnitude.

Ive been using aveda for a few years and its worth every penny.. a tiny bit goes a long way. I style my hair everyday for work and i work 5-6 days a week. And this will last me 6 months sometimes longer

I like this product for a while (maybe 10 hours), but by the end of the day it seems to have lost any effect, and may actually make my hair look worse.

I’ve tried many hair products over the years. This one is great for all types of hair and all lengths of hair. It is a great all in one product with a good texture and doesn’t dry out easily or become sticky. It’s useful year round.

not sticky, greasy

Love the scent
