To wash:

1. Use conditional
2. Use Shampoo
3. Conditional (if u like smooth touch)

Btw i think the method is written in one of the product of Gatsby

using pomade better than wax/clay

Depends on how your hair is cut and how you want to style. Don't think one is better than the other as there's wax pomade or even clay pomade nowadays.

Used American Crew pomade, really good as it can keep hold your hair & re-style back easily, but the con it is really expensive & hard to get by.

Tried badlab matte max, ok at first but doesnt hold that long like American Crew.

Then tried the gatwsby dressing pomade as it advertised as the strongest of all. Damn disappointed doesnt even hold more than 10 minutes.

Dont know what to use now.

In terms of Clay, I have used the old Gatsby, HDF Claymation, and Blumaan Cavalier Clay before.

Out of these, I would recommend the HDF Claymation, just because it is easier to be washed out, less shine. Both Claymation and Cavalier Clay performs similarly, but if I am to use Clay now, I'll go for Claymation. But i've moved on to Hair Paste.

Where do you source yours from?

Usually i buy from Kudos Pomade.

Ahh, alright, thank you so much. Kinda sick of the Gatsby junk I use lol

My gravity paste will be finishing. Was just googling hair paste Malaysia and I found out about this Analogue Paste which is made in Malaysia and supposedly have great reviews!

Gonna buy one and support our local brand. And see how it fares vs HDF's gravity paste. I'm a sucker for hair paste. Lol

Guys, any water based that don't have overwhelming fragrance?
Thanks in advance

I am also looking for a clay with minimal fragrance.

Hanz de Fuko Claymation is magic.

It’s dry like there’s nothing on your hair, almost no fragrance, not greasy and easily washes off, keeps your hair in place for hours.

BAD LAB Hair Clay - Like A Boss. Best hair product. Easy to wash, perfect smell, holds pretty well and natural shine. Except for Shiseido Seasalt spray, I threw away all my other hair product.

Any recommendations for those that easy to wash off? Currently using water based pomade, but its too shining. Would prefer something that hold like a clay (matte and not hard type), but easy to wash off like water based pomade.

And if it has additional benefits like promote hair growth, it is even better

I've used a few.

Hard to wash off:
Arcadian matte paste
Hanz De Fuko Claymation
Forte matte Paste

Easy to wash off:
Hanz De Fuko Gravity Paste
Analogue paste (but this have like a cologne smell to it, quite strong.

Maybe u can consider the btm 2. Haven't really try other products. I've moved away from Gatsby and Osis+, somehow those I feel is very hard to wash off

Alright, thanks for the feedback, gonna try search for both of it.

Any recommendation for online sellers to buy? Previously always bought from jenin, but recently seems like the shop is not active anymore, many items OOS.

Osis+ Lazada have it. If Hanz De Fuko, can buy via Zalora.

Got myself the analogue paste. Looks quite ok i guess, but not that easy to wash out. I need to triple my shampoo amount in order to wash it out.

Clay vs gel vs paste vs spray vs liquid?
