Shear Revival American Gardens Clay Pomade | FIRST IMPRESSIONS & REVIEW

[@doctorsquirrelgroomingco.5446]

Is this a reformulated American Gardens? I swear I thought this was an oil-based clay pomade before. Hmm....maybe I'm wrong.

[@TDMStyle]

It is a complete reform, yeah. I had actually mentioned that originally in the video but cut that part cause the vid was too long haha.

[@thesanshann]

The OG American Gardens and this reformulated version are both great in different ways!

[@pereiraplaza222]

@Avery Nicholas Yes it worked and I found crazy stuff that I didn't want to say about it now but I'm going to try to find a good time to come by and see you guys sometime this year and I will try and make it up to Benagil Beach

[@theopinionatedbrit]

I found it applied a bit better with a few drops of tonic. I have to use 2 scoops as a rule of thumb with anything. Despite the dryness and the tuggable application it works. Not going to be a daily driver for me, but like you in the Coarse Hair Crew it was always going to be a big ask. The search for the one clay to rule them all continues. It’s texture balm for me so far.

[@TDMStyle]

I still need to try the texture balm myself.

[@howl5351]

Grand classic texture balm is what I want to try to. They ran out of their SoCal Citrus scent and just have their coconut coffee scent which I wouldn’t want to have. I just love citrus too much lol.

[@fernandorodriguez876]

I remember asking shear revival whether or not they would bring American Gardens back since it's a reference to one of my most fav films and they actually did! I was really excited especially now since i bought my own jar yesterday and now i gotta wait till it arrives.

[@TDMStyle]

Hope you like it! I didn't even realize it's a film reference... which film?

[@fernandorodriguez876]

@@TDMStyle No way matt you don't know? American Psycho! I think you'll really enjoy it if you give it a watch, pretty popular from the amount of memes that came out of it.

[@TDMStyle]

Ah! Yeah that movie has been on my "to watch" list for a long time and I've been meaning to get around to it.

[@marcialsblendshair6088]

Loved the vid. When you were reading the ingredients, it sounded like a styling product for blow outs longhair that is oily or doesn't hold a curl or volume. BY THE WAY your back tangles with dry products because of its growth pattern. You finger brush from root to end from left to right when you go to the back. Start right to left in the back then your usual way. Hopefully that will help. Keep it up.

[@TDMStyle]

Hmm I’ll have to try that, thanks!

[@marcialsblendshair6088]

@@TDMStyle You are totally welcome. Let me know how it goes.

I like to use American Gardens clay pomade with Amity texture spray. I got a solid firm hold and my hair felt softer throughout the day

[@APPL3SL1CES]

Do you use the American gardens after you dry your hair or before?

[@lcsat93]

Nice video! Ever thought of reviewing the kochi hair product line? Noticed they are super expensive around the $60 australian mark and not much is known about them.

[@TDMStyle]

Hm, hadn't heard of them! I'll definitely have to take a look!

[@andrueibarra]

Great review keep it up man 👍 Can you review Lockharts matte clay?

Did you ever try the Blackwater / The Void combo from Flagship?

[@TDMStyle]

Not yet but would like to.

[@CarloSikkink]

great video dude. What hair product would you recommend for long hair with longer sides? kind off leonardo di caprio look

[@fernandorodriguez876]

Definitely a pomade, mainly a water soluble pomade.

[@peteredwoods1470]

Dude! What would be the reverse of this? I’m wanting to hold up a short jellyroll quiff in the near future.

[@farazr2]

So the tangly ends thing also happens to me. I've been keeping track of it and it pretty much only happens when my hair gets blended with thinning shears or with the clipper. I got a full scissor cut in NYC once and I had no more of that for a few months, even with dry products.

[@TDMStyle]

Hmm interesting!

[@georgeosborn421]

TDM Style tigi bed head matt separation is the worst for tangly ends it is horrendous makes my hair feel like straw too

[@LukasBlau]

Wondering how the Shevoo Black Clay Set can even condition the hair when there’s no oil in it at all. Best regards , keep the good work up boy 🙌🏻

[@TDMStyle]

Plenty of hydrating ingredients in there (and other salon brands) besides oils. This section of the black clay set ingredients has a lot of key players (especially panthenol): Biotin, Tocopheryl Acetate, Hydrolized Silk, Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Spirulina Platensis Extract, Rosa Carina Fruit Extract, Panax Quinquefolius Root Extract, Centella Asiatica Extract, Panthenol,

Matt do you think if your dry hair would be shorter than this it would be less tuggy

[@TDMStyle]

At least somewhat, yes I think so.

[@ibby81ae]

How does it compare to flagship dead sea clay?

[@boredtodadth4609]

Dope video man! You should review Jack Henry’s clay pomade

[@hamaskhanzada8624]

Link to your pre-styling products used in this video?

[@eliranerel1569]

I have very similar hair, very wavy and a bit long , and like with the hermit clay, i actually couldn't use it because of the tugging the made it so painful and hair pulling. When il get a Sirius haircut il try it again. These kind of products are directed to a specific community that usually blow dry and prestyle what will make these kind of products unusable. The salutation eventually are oil-based clays like lockhart's matte clay, it stars a bit oily/wet because of the petro but in no time it dries and you get that full volume textured look without the impossible application. Additionally, because it's petro based if you add more at the application you can actually get a nice combed neat look, and for me versatility in an expensive hair product is the most important thing.

[@TDMStyle]

Yeah I definitely enjoy a good oil-based clay as well, for those same reasons. That's why I love Fuertes clay so much - buttery smooth application and still ends up with a matte finish and great texture, leaving my hair soft.

[@gsrjaycee4521]

So from all the hair creams,pastes,wax,clay, which is the best for you ?

[@TDMStyle]

I don't have a single "best" or "favorite" product honestly, there are many that I really enjoy using. In terms of genre though, I think OB clays are probably my personal favorite type of product.

[@xPsYcHoxLaG]

@@TDMStyle which one? No blumaan right?

[@BEARDED_VATO]

What kind of products work best for your hair? I too have thick, wavy hair man!

[@TDMStyle]

Personally I always go for smoothing prestylers since my hair texture is coarse, and then I prefer a smoother medium-hold clay type product, so it's not overly dry. American Gardens is VERY dry so not the best for me. Let me know what kind of finish/hold/texture etc you're after and I can def recommend some products for you!

[@BEARDED_VATO]

@@TDMStyle Just looking for a natural look but something that will keep it in place, i do like the ingredients on sheer revival products though!

[@TDMStyle]

I'd definitely say then give Northern Lights a go. Grey Ghost is definitely a heavier, waxier product and gives the cleaner look of a pomade with a little shine. Northern Lights ends up looking very natural with nice texture.

[@BEARDED_VATO]

@@TDMStyle Bro i literally just order those 2! Thank you 🤝🏼🤙🏼

[@XPTwistedXP]

what clay would be best for hair a little longer than yours? I also have course wavey hair, just need something to hold a style decently, nothing crazy

any hair waxes or pomades you would recommend for coarse/thick hair trying to achieve curtains

[@TDMStyle]

There are endless options depending on what you want in terms of hold and shine level and such. If you're going for curtains though I'd recommend going with something light and flowy since you're not really gonna need much in the way of hold.

[@andresa5889]

TDM Style thanks!

[@andreswong1889]

It's a shame that you have such a hard time applying. For me, with my medium-thick hair, tugging when styling is present in dry hair but it's not as bad as what you had. Together with Amity, it held absolutely fantastically throughout the whole day.

[@TDMStyle]

Yeah it's a bummer, but at least it worked well in the second method!

I also have that issue of getting tangled hair when applying clay on my hair. I blow-dry my hair first. Btw I'm using forte. It has a great hold but wish it didn't tug and tangle my hair. Any recommendations?

[@TDMStyle]

Def recommend prestyling with some type of smoothing product first which should at least help somewhat. Beyond that I'd recommend a few clays that have a really buttery smooth application like: Hustle from TheSalonGuy, Fuertes clay, Earthmade clay pomade. For stronger holding ones, Oasis from Templeton and Stickmore Clay Fiber are great. Stickier at application, but they quickly change and become soft and smooth.

[@clint7312]

I’ll have to pass on this. Even northern lights kicks my ass with the grip (my bathroom is always cold so I know that hardens my post stylers). I’ve been messing with dauntless grooming oil and odouds sea salt spray to smooth my hair out which has been helping though. I’m trying to delay beating the FF7 remake as I’ll be S.O.L. until trials of mana comes out in a few weeks.

[@tamasmenyhart8483]

Clint, try the Root & Muddle Clay.. Super creamy, lightest clay I've ever had in my hair, and ⅓ rd of a scoop gets me more hold and volume than 2 scoops of this American Gardens.

[@clint7312]

Tamas Menyhart man thats exactly what I haven’t been able to find. Something that won’t rip out my skull but can actually do something with my hair haha.

[@tamasmenyhart8483]

@@clint7312 man that stuff is really really crazy good! It's creamy and a super tiny little amount spreads so much that you literally have to use 3 times less than with other products! It's also very nourishing to the hair, doesn't dry it out or anything, rinses out with just water and the hold goes into the next day LOL If you've used Oasis Clay, it's that, but it's lighter in the hair and the hold is even higher (and that one has crazy hold LOL). Another one I really like is the stickmore clay fiber! That one is super smooth to apply, washes out easily, and has really great texture and hold. Hold wise, the root & muddle clay is stronger but the stickmore is aslo a wonderful clay! I alternate products but I tend to reach for root & muddle clay and the stickmore clay fiber and/or the stickmore styling cream the most.

Tamas Menyhart you know I’ve always wanted to try oasis and stick more clay fiber. I just need to plow through my current stuff and move onto those too. Thanks!
