BEST IN TEST
This fresh-smelling product comes in a squeezable, rubber-bottomed container, making it the world's first hair wax and stress ball in one. It's supposed to have a strong hold rating but it feels more subtle than that, leaving your hair looking casually styled with a matt finish.

A brown, doughy wax that smells a bit like chocolate and caramel, which isn't great unless you want people remarking that you honk of melted Mars bars. You don't need much of it to be able to style your hair. It's a matt product but feels and looks a little bit oily.

This thick wax practically bullies your hair into staying exactly where you want it. The compromise you make for having every strand in place is, well, looking like you've deliberately got every strand in place. It's highly effective but not suitable if you're going for a natural feel.

The big sell with this product is that it's as easy to apply as a gel but has the holding properties of a wax. Fine, but does anyone really struggle with applying wax? Whether you do or not, you'll find that this gentle product gives you a relaxed, if slightly greasy, look.
