[@rons.1982]

Yes, one of my favorite men’s hair care channels out there

[@alansouthall8221]

No but am about to. Thanks for the effort you put in, so useful

[@jeweetzelf777]

I literally tried some clay I had laying around after washing and conditioning my hair, combined it with some sea salt spray and styled it copying your method. im having the best hair day ive had in months. Thanks my man

[@BoneyMonkey1]

How does the sea salt spray work with it? Do you use it before after the clay styling?

[@jitomatino]

Is your hair thin or thick?

[@aghastyt6600]

does it damage the hair or hairfall

[@-bielle2985]

I've been struggling to keep my hair in a high top shape (thin straight hair). I don't like how gel looks and pomade always leaves my top flat after a while. But clay is surprisingly efficient in keeping my hair in place and with a "dry" look as well. Clay is a gift from the gods 😂

[@eggnogg589]

This is easily my favorite style on you. Shapes your face and suits your skull shape so so well. Hope to see this one come back!

[@frankcastle1578]

So many KZbinrs these days talking about hair and products (hell you even have Bluuman trying to make a comeback). However when it comes to hair and knowledge absolutely no one one gets close to Robin, you sir are in my opinion the absolute best KZbin has to offer! Cheers from Florida 🍻😁

[@ManForHimself]

What an endorsement! Thank you very much.

[@dobatroba3903]

I mean I'm fan of a lot hair and products channels like Blumaan and AlexCosta but I got to say Robin so far been my favourite cuz every products he reviews he gives u exactly how the experience of every products for every kinda of hair type so yeah Robin keep being the best out there

[@bluewolf37777]

I loved Blumaan when he first started but now he's too biased since he released his own products. He stopped a lot of the reviews for cheaper brands and ignores the most popular brands. Even when he reviews things he always mentions that he likes his brand better which doesn't feel authentic.

[@follower8815]

Blumaan isn’t trying to make a comeback. He isn’t doing it for a “come back”. His new content is actually much more focused on quality over quantity.

[@adrianfitness6370]

I was using blumaan for a year n a half until I realized it was eh for me after watching these videos lol

[@zzwild6183]

I tend to use a paste most of the time because I have long hair. Gives it a bit of structure without making it heavy. My hair is rather thick and coarse, and the paste also helps with taming any frizz I might be having. Also combo that with some coconut oil after washing for a bit of natural shine and protection from the elements, perfection.

[@ManForHimself]

Love the sound of this.

[@cerealkiller195]

NO joke I subscribed to your channel a few days ago on your Tom Ford Fragrance video, then I watched your restyled video (which was AMAZING). Today on a lazy sunday i was browsing a few topics and without looking I keep clicking on your videos. Thank you for all the great videos!

[@sirweebs2914]

This man could talk to me all day long. My God.

[@bfcman2356]

I have very thin and fine hair (thanks to my mother) and I was relieved to watch one of your videos and hear you deal with the same thing. Totally will use every drop of info from you.

[@aryanghosh8639]

So what product do you use for thin hair to get decent hold ? I have thin hair too and can't decide what to get , used a clay before ,not totally satisfied with it.

[@jasondeblou6226]

[@TES-bt8sv]

I'm watching this video because I just watched a video of Bjorn Borg and I was impressed with how well he has aged and how great his hair looked. I keep my hair short because as it gets longer, the wind blow it all over my head. I'm going to try the clay paste so I can grow my hair just a bit longer. Thanks for the video.

[@MissTease77]

I wasn’t able to decide if I need pomade or paste and you explained it beautifully why I should chose one

[@Swuatchaty]

Starting school soon and all of your tips are really gonna help me and make me look good

[@nicholastaylor9375]

Shear Revival Northern Lights is an absolute god-tier product. I've tried loads of hair products and I'm still yet to find anything as good as it. For anyone with fine, straight hair that tends to lack volume, give it a try.

[@topacybits3576]

How is the hold?

[@andreg.401]

What about people with thick, wavy hair?

[@svnsnt]

^^

[@Cornflake81]

Been using blue/red ruezel for years. My length has gotten longer and my 90s centre part is trying to make a comeback half way through my workday. Thanks for the video, I'll have to check out the site today.

[@rhysdyson2880]

I went to a barber I hadn’t been to before and she put a powder in my hair. I’ve been growing it out and embracing the curls and waves, and I loved the matte look and hold of the powder. The problem was trying to wash the darn stuff out that night. Three shampoos later and my hair still felt slightly sticky. I think I’ll stick to my water based pomades and spray clay thanks 😅

[@willeb6412]

Hi! I’ve been using powders for my hair for a while and I had the same problem at the start. The rule of thumb I’ve found with powder is less is more. Depending on which brand you use, if it has a strong hold once you work it in try to just sprinkle a small amount and use a brush to form it and then maybe use a little hairspray. Your hair may be different and your brand may be as well so this is just a suggestion!

[@filiptgr8746]

I use a powder as well and i wash it once with shampoo and conditioner after and that's it 🤷

[@barry9009]

loved the video Robin, sometimes i walk into boots and feel completely overwhelmed by hair products. This has helped loads. Cheers!

[@fussballfreak1]

Keep on going Robin. Still great content and absolute unreacheable knowledge for hair Products. Stay healthy! 🙏🏻😊

[@sudeshh11]

Powders are great imo, I love them its easy to use and easy to style the hair, I have a very soft hair and I get lots of compliments for it, my girlfriend loves touching and going through my hair so whenever i use a hair product it sometimes tend to get sticky, so i switched to hair powders and its way better for me 😅😅

[@chanmanthegreat1429]

i just bought some powder but im worried my girlfriend wont be able to play with my hair with this stuff because it makes my hair thick and less soft. How is it making your hair soft?? mine makes my hair much more dry and dense, but its hard to run my hand through it

[@EdgyIntellect]

I know this channel is geared towards men but I’m a woman who has fine hair and this information is very helpful! Any clay recommendations for thickness??

[@seb_1520]

How does sweating affect each type of these products? My hair never seems to last when I exercise or last throughout the day

[@Reuben_95]

Great question

[@captainmincemeat1432]

Then oil based pomade probably works for you because the sweat doesn't affect the oil. If you use water based product the product will dissolve in the sweat.

[@mimoosa7390]

@@captainmincemeat1432 oil based clay also great?

[@captainmincemeat1432]

@@mimoosa7390 I think clay is water based but there can be some oils in it to nourish your scalp. I think oil based products like pomade will be more effective.

[@h3ctor272]

If you don't mind your hair being hard all day then use "Moco de Gorilla" gel. It's pretty strong against sweat. Use either the Yellow or purple bottle.

[@jennifermellem-teegarden4850]

I'm new to your channel and learned so much just from this video. Would you consider making a video discussing the basics for male grooming, geared toward tweens/early teenagers? I feel clueless trying to guide my son as he gets closer to being a teenager.

[@justboostit9508]

Im using both 4. My opinion is to use clay, only matte, and only when you will use hairdryer. So if its summer its a big no. Pomade, only shiny, they give amazing shiny look but hard to control. Paste, only matte, awsome control, powderbonly for curly low length hair

[@JoyceGeorgewill]

Thanks for this video and explaining about all these products. Straight to the point!

[@CollinBoddy]

I have balding and thinner hair and I use fix your lid pomade and a light heat to get my hair styled. Pomade seems to be really nice and not too greasy.

[@jeweetzelf777]

Bro we got the same hairtype and I was reluctant to grow my hair out because I thought it wouldn’t look good. Seeing you though, it looks GREAT. Will definitely try these styling products once it is at full length.

[@SaiKumar-qs9ly]

Is he gae?

[@posteph47]

Love this breakdown. I have been trying to find something for my teenage son who now has a longer type haircut and needs to style his hair to keep the longer bits out of his eyes.

[@invisisense5464]

Yooo it’s the Jeremy Fragrance of hair products 😂😂😂😂

[@bilbilly625]

Bro.. every time I get my haircut when he’s done he styles my hair and it honestly looks 10/10. The next morning when after my shower I blow dry my hair and take every step he does while styling my hair and I swear at best I can get to look maybe 70 percent as well as when he does it. I have very thick hair but can’t produce the volume he does.. so im ordering that first pomade product you shared right now fingers crossed this works, very good video thank you!

[@SmurfAccount2]

DId it work?

[@bkopgamer]

Love firsthand supply clay pomade and cavalier clay by Blumaan because they both give me a strong hold without fail with my thick hair.

[@ManForHimself]

Great that you've found your favourites!

[@NachoKnight99]

I've watched this video so many times. Love it

[@nutmalone5527]

Clays and blumaans pomade are my favourite hair products, and my moroccanoil clay is arriving tomorrow, cant wait to try it out!

[@mattbell8426]

I tried Moroccanoil texture clay but was disappointed - it doesn't feel nice in my hair, I never get good hold and I really dislike the smell. I usually use Hanz De Fuko claymation but I fancy a change, my hair is approaching a similar length to Robin's in this video at the moment (not quite as long yet). Anyone have any suggestions?

[@dplj4428]

Searched: hair texture. Always did my own. So many videos about styling! Yours very informative about types of products and what effects to expect. Might try the clay or the paste, especially if less likely to stain.

[@ItsCoolerByTheLake]

I definitely have had the best experiences using pastes, with pomades coming in second for me. It's just so hard finding good pastes and pomades that don't contain either beeswax or lanolin, because both of them are really fricken nasty stuff but they're so common. I've been using Layrite's natural matte paste the most lately though, and it's really good.

[@krakengrad]

Why is beeswax nasty?

[@ItsCoolerByTheLake]

@@krakengrad It has a really nice texture, but it smells horrible, and it dries your skin out a little bit. Nothing crazy, it's not like it's gonna give you really chapped skin, but it's a bit annoying.

[@krakengrad]

@@ItsCoolerByTheLake I see, thanks for answering

[@Sol-cf9ko]

[@TheAssassin510X]

My hair feels tangly after using Moroccan oil texture clay :( I have thick wavy hair 4 inch on top and 2 sides. I don’t why but pomades and sea salt sprays work for me only.

[@from-chimp-to-champ1]

Robin, thank you for your wonderful video! I have very thin blond hair. When I apply strong hold gel - The hair gets even thinner, like I'm getting bold. Would you recommend that I try clay or something different?

[@lusor_lucky4966]

Ok so.. I played RDR2 and you are able to use Pomade in the game I really wanted to try it out my self. But I thought people don’t use Pomade anymore! I got thicc hair and a lot of hair products won’t slick my hair back properly.. I definitely try pomade now!

[@haideriqbal8442]

I have thick oily hair, and a slicked back hairstyle. So which product would you recommend? Thanks.

[@hansikas9121]

The hair on my head started falling out big time after an extremely stressful period I went through. So, I myself researched the net and decided to test a hair oil called litttleextra coocoonion & a comb made of neem wood. The results really made a difference. At present, my hair is lengthy, thick, dark hair that has reached my waist and trimmed three times after I started. Simple and good. Also, equally good is massaging the scalp - it promotes the growth. You just must do this weekly. Before long, you'll see short hairs growing in.

[@alexbowell4762]

Hi robin great video! Could you please cover mousses? Also what products work well to apply to wet hair and then blow dry please

[@metalmaster7789]

How did you manage to get your hair like that? Its fabolous!

i got MPB but i still enjoy these videos

[@treetoon_]

Moroccanoil Clay and Triumph & Disaster Coltrane Clay are my two favorites, depending on if I want bentonite or kaolin :7

[@dieselunwinding]

I used the Moroccanoil clay for a few weeks and I had problems washing the build up out then my hair started falling out. This was the only product I switched from my routine. I figured the problem was the clay. Taking a closer look with a microscope with my barber the residue was off the charts. Today I buzzed all my hair to start fresh with a nioxin microdermabrasion. I’m pretty bombed out about it, at this point I had been growing my hair for almost a year. :(

[@Dnj1zzzz]

Jesus. Now I don't want to try it lol. It does seem from the clays I've gotten in the past that they are the thickest and hardest to get in there (and I guess get out too)

[@johnnydurgs1215]

@@Dnj1zzzzI used it for years and I really liked how easily it emulsified, but had similar problems with my hair feeling too unhealthy and damaged. It’s great, but when used with moderation. Kevin Murphy Rough Rider has been fantastic though, but it is more oily and difficult to wash out when compared to the Moroccan Oil. Choose wisely

Hi Robin, is there a different between cream pomade and the normal one I mean it will give me the same hold and shine?
