I recently tried the LAYRITE Men's Styling Hair Cream, and overall, I'm impressed with its performance. The cream boasts a lightweight formula that's easy to apply and doesn’t leave any greasy residue. It provides a natural-looking hold that keeps my hair in place throughout the day without feeling stiff or crunchy. One of the standout features is its versatility. Whether I’m aiming for a classic comb-over or a more textured, casual look, this cream adapts well to different styles. The scent is subtle and clean, which is a nice touch for those who prefer a less intrusive fragrance. However, while the cream does offer good hold, it could benefit from a bit more strength for thicker or more unruly hair types. Also, the price point might be slightly higher than some competitors, but the quality and performance justify the cost. In summary, the LAYRITE Men's Styling Hair Cream is a solid choice for men seeking a reliable and stylish hair product. Its ease of use and natural finish make it a worthwhile addition to any grooming routine. Read more
This is one of my favorite hair products! Great hold washes out very easily and smells amazing! Except I just recently went through TSA with it unopened and they made me scoop a bunch of it out before I went through security. It’s a good product but can’t travel with this container unless you’ve used a lot of of it lol Read more
Updated review- So as my first review said this is a great product with a nice medium hold. But more of a soft medium hold . It allows you to style your hair in any way and most importantly it is a matte finish. In my opinion it leaves a very light shine but it makes it look more natural and not like the life was sucked out of your hair. It takes a bit to fully set and "dry" but it may be because I have low perosity hair. I have let my hair grow out more than usual and I am letting my curly hair do it's thing instead of keeping it short and just styling it back. My hair is about 3 to 4 inches long on top and I have 3A curls . I gave this a shot after not using for a while with my longer hair. I have to say I am very surprised by the results. I was expecting this to weigh down my hair but to my surprise it didn't. I apply it to semi damp hair from root to end . Style it, which for me is to light scrunch and lift and just let it air dry. It keeps the curls in place, soft, no frizz, doesn't dry, not greasy. And most importantly it washes off easily with water. My daughter with very thick dense wavy hair uses it too and it works great as well. Read more
Before I started clicking my hair back into pomadours, quiffs, and whatever, I went for dry, textured styles and used wax products like Gatsby Moving Rubber Air Rise and Gatsby Matte Wax. After switching to pomade, I missed the more "natural" look, but I still wanted to look more grown up and I liked the restylability of pomade. Outside of the usual oil and water based pomades I typically use (Shear Revival Crystal Lake, Nostalgic Handmade Firm Hold, and more) I also tried products like Imperial Matte Pomade, Mister Pomadour Beeswax Paste, Baxter Clay Pomade, Shear REvival American Gardens, and Lockhart's Matte Clay to try to make my hair as natural looking as possible, but still easily combed back with strong hold. While I like some of these products, especially Lockhart's, I didn't get the right combination of comb-ability, natural-ality, and strength. Until now. Layrite Natural Matte Cream does wonders. I can slick my hair back, but if I want to go for a more dry and textured look, I just need to run my fingers through my hair a few times and it'll retain the hold and my hair doesn't look stupidly messy. It has a vanilla scent and it's really soft and easy to scoop; it feels just like lotion. I was initially debating between getting this or Layrite Cement Matte Hair Clay, but I'm glad I got this. I never used that one either, but it seems like it's more focused on getting you strong hold while Natural Matte Cream is more focused on flexibility and light-ness. And to be honest, I was more drawn in by the packaging of this product than the Cement. It just looked cleaner and more professional. The packaging won't disappoint. That's a guarantee. Overall, if you want a matte look when styled, but don't want to worry about your hair falling apart when you mess it up with your hands a bit, Layrite Natural Matte Cream is great. It won't grease your hair up if that's what you're looking for, but it can function similar to a medium hold pomade, clay, or wax. Take your pick. Read more
Good product with a fairly strong hold. Scent can always be better Read more
This is great holding the hair and you can’t see it Read more
I wanted to find a quality hair product that didn't cost an arm and a leg. I have tried matte clays/creams/pastes that were twice the price and I will continue to purchase Layrite in the future. This is fantastic value for the money and I love how it styles. I simply apply a small amount to my slightly damp hair and I am able to style it with my hands. It does not provide a super strong hold and does not make my hair shiny (which is exactly what I want). I am still able to run my hands through my hair and the hold lasts all day. As it says on the container, the dryer your hair is when you apply it, the stronger the hold, so I like that you have some control over it. I also really like how it smells - a light cream soda scent. Overall, this is a great product that I will continue to use. Read more
