Hanz de Fuko Quicksand – Premium Men’s Hair Styling Wax & Dry Shampoo for a High Hold, Ultra Matte Finish – Ideal Texture Product for Thin, Thick and All Hair Types – 2 oz, Travel Size

I've been using Hanz de Fuko Quicksand for about 6 months now and it's become my go-to styling product. Here's why it works: The Good Stuff: • All-day hold that actually lasts - I'm not reapplying halfway through the day like with other products • Clean, matte finish - No shine, no oily look, just natural-looking styled hair • Not sticky or tacky - Feels clean in your hair, which is huge for me • Better than the competition - I've tried other brands in this category and this one just performs better Bottom Line: If you want a product that holds strong, looks natural, and doesn't feel gross in your hair, this is it. The texture is perfect - gives you control without making it obvious you're using product. Worth the price for something that actually does what it says it will. Would I buy again? Absolutely. Already planning my next order.

I have used the Aveda men's grooming clay for years and recently moved to Highland because of some ads that said it was awesome. Turns out that that I was missing with Aveda was longevity. The Aveda product simply disappeared when I got hot, or it was very humid, or it rained a little. Basically any moisture would make it simply disappear. I wanted something with better hold, and I didn't know until I tried something else. However, the Highland glacial clay is the polar opposite. It is made of wax and it is very sticky. Not only does it stay on your hair, but you have to rub it off your hands with a towel because soap and water have no effect on it. Also, I would pull out my hair when putting it on. Once I put it on my hair, my hair was flat and that was the way it stayed. It was simply too much. I was staring right down on the Goldilocks problem, so I did what everyone does in 2024, I conducted an online search, developed a list of candidates, and read reviews. I was stumped with several products, so I decided to buy the most popular one--Quicksand. This stuff is just right. It goes on pretty easily without pulling my hair out. Like Highland, you have to warm it up in your hands, but this is more clay and less wax. It lasts all day no matter the weather. It does not look slick, shiny, or greasy. Like the name implies, it leaves your hair dry looking. I put it on when my hair is barely damp. It makes my already thin hair a little flat at first. But over the morning, my hair rises to the desired look. Unlike Aveda or Highland, if the wind blows my hair, for example, I can run my hand through my hair without destroying the hold or the look. Sometimes when i first get up in the morning, my hair is like Doc Brown from Back to the Future, but all I have to do is push it back down and I'm good until I shower and start all over again. I don’t know what the "dry shampoo" thing is about, and I almost did not buy it because that was in the title. I would recommend that you give this a shot unless you want the slick or shiny look. See if you agree.

I use a clay or paste daily. This brand has a great hold with the formula allowing for wet hair to dry properly in place without the “wet look”. Hold last all day very easily and allow allows for easy manipulation throughout the day for the look that you’re looking for. I would recommend this product very easily and love the fact that the scent is very very light. A little bit goes a very long way and a tub of this would last many many months maybe even a year. Gives your hair a slight grainy feel and it works very well. Works well with dyed hair.

Keeps hair in place. Nice smell. Not oily. Expensive.

I was a little on the fence about ordering this product due to the mixed reviews and the cost, but I'm very glad I did. The texture of the stuff is smooth, yet has the smallest amount of graininess mixed in. I use a swatch about the size of a nickel and vigorously rub between my palms until it feels warm and the substance has dissipated—it almost feels like nothing is on your hands at that point, but it's there. I then work my hands through my hair—usually dry—and immediately the hair groups together and becomes textured, but still feels dry to the touch, with no shine or greasiness. I'm then able to arrange my hair into the style I prefer, and it simply stays where I put it. A quick rinse of the hands with water and I'm done. Over the course of the day, gravity will of course make the hair settle a bit, but you can simply fluff it up again lightly with your fingers as needed (which isn't often). I have straight, short/medium length hair, on the thicker side for reference. I usually used either Crew Matte Clay or Crew Fiber before finding this stuff. This product is better. Crew would eventually make the hair feel greasy, especially the next day. With Quicksand this doesn't happen, and sometimes my hair actually looks better after a night of sleeping on it! It may not be for everyone, but if you want a decent, medium hold, zero shine, zero greasiness, that lasts all day, you've just found what you're looking for.

I read several reviews and this hair clay was highly recommended, so I decided to try it because my old clay was discontinued. It says "high hold". It is definitely not what I would consider "high hold". Probably "medium hold", as it can still stay fairly styled if I use a decent amount, but I frequently have to run my hands through my hair throughout the day to re-shape, and then use more of the wax. And if your hair hasn't been thoroughly dried (like if it has any moisture in it AT ALL), forget about this clay having any hold. Also, in the product pictures, this is supposed to be an off-white/sandy color. Mine is like yellow-brown with a greenish tint, I'll include a picture. If you're wanting a clay that you don't have to re-apply and re-shape a few times a day, this isn't the one for you. And the fact that I have to re-apply it a few times a day uses so much of the clay, and it's already an expensive/small jar. Even using a lot does not go a long way... The texture is ok, it's not globby, doesn't clump hairs together. Has a nice matte finish. It says "beachy texture", I would say it has a slightly "grainy-ish" feeling, but not super noticeable, it feels pretty dry and thin (I'm not sure how you would phrase this?).

Feel like the consistency of this product has been unreliable. Also, the price has skyrocketed. It used to be the perfect product but now it's pricier and sometimes leaves weird flakes after dispersing in my hair.

I use this after a sea salt spray, it's easy to use, only need a little bit. I found it easy to wash out, it's a little greasy but I've found that to be the case for most of these. Has a good hold that lasts all day. It's kinda expensive, but I think it will last a long time!

c'est le TOP

Unlike anything else I’ve ever tried.. believe me I’ve tried them all.. IMO I love it. I have low skin fade with side parting. Like to have it natural look. It’s leaves your hair really soft & rework-able. Doesn’t fail halfway thru the day. Strong, but can restyle easily . Bit pricey, but worth it. Use with a good quality sea salt spray. Works great..

Doesn’t meet expectations

Tengo el cabello fino y facil de q se quede apelmazado pero este producto me da mucho volumen, lo uso como pre-peinado y me va de maravilla. Sin perfume y con productos naturales
