Best For black Hair: Gatsby wave Wax

Buy on Amazon

Not everyone likes to purchase wax for their daily usage, but the gatsby wave wax would be an anomoly. If you have light hair that is shoulder-length, this is a great product for you. It gives you a ton of body and texture with a natural look (not matte and not unnaturally shiny) but the body and lift it provides are nothing short of miraculous. It maintains your hair volume and you can restyle throughout the day. It takes two or three washes for your hair to feel clean again.

The wax is light on hair and has nice flagrant. It is used for a soft spiky hair style and short part to the side style. It provides decent hold for medium-length hair after towel drying post-shower. The smell is artificially fruity, but pleasant.

Why We Like This:

Smells like apples and washes out pretty easy
Great for thick hair, better than any domestic hair product
Keeps your hair style for long time
Gives texture while still looking smooth and soft

Best For braids: gummy wave Wax

Buy on Amazon

Not everyone likes to purchase wax for their daily purpose, but the gummy wave wax would be an anomoly. This edge control lasts all day without flaking and does n’t turn white. It is great for men who maintain short hair. It has been the only one that has worked on clean or dirty hair with zero build up, flakiness, or stiffness. This one holds the best even for 4c hair. It doesnt get flaky and the hold is strong. The scent is not too overbearing either.

It is great for sticking down your hair. If you want this edge control to last longer, add some 2b glue.

Great product, good hold and super easy to clean
Smells like watermelon and holds hair in place all day
