KMS Conscious Style Styling Putty for All Hair Types, 75 ml

Good strong hold on wiry hair

I'm a professional hair stylist and use loads of different styling putties and waxes on my own hair, mostly to test out new brands that I can use with my clients or just for fun when my salon get's in new products. I have always really liked KMS as a brand since using them at hair school as it was one of the brands my college stocked regularly. When I was offered to test this one out I jumped on it as I hadn't used this particular putty before and as I say, I've generally been impressed with them in the past.This is quite a light wax type putty, it blends down in your hands very quickly and is easy to apply. This has a few benefits in that it's great for almost any hair type, not being too heavy for people with thinner hair, nor too claggy and bogging down for people with thicker hair. On the flip-side of that, it does mean that the hold is quite light, more on the medium side and those looking for the stiff, rock solid hold of something like a pomade or straight wax will want to look elsewhere. That said, I did find the hold to be reasonable and it didn't make my hair look or feel greasy. The scent is really light which I appreciate, just a fresh linen sort of smell and it doesn't overpower or linger round your head all day long.Honestly speaking, I feel like a lot of brands of putty are all very similar once you get to a certain level and it's down to the small details to set them apart really. This is great as a professional level product and I'd have no problem stocking this and recommending it to clients at all. The ingredients are good, well nourishing and will help you to protect your hair, especially in harsh winters. It washes out easily, the scent is good and pretty low-key and the price is about average, if not on the low-end for a pro product, so overall I have to say I'm really impressed again with KMS. I'll be keeping this to use on my own hair, though I will also keep a slightly stronger product on hand too, for those days when the wind is a bit much, as the hold with this one is, as mentioned, more on the medium side of things and will struggle in poorer weather. Excellent overall, though.

The texture is quite hard, but by moving your fingers over it for a while you can get it to warm up and stick to your fingers. Then we can spread it through our hands and apply it to the head. The hair looks a bit greasy but not too much. As for the hold, it's not too strong.It's certainly a small container for what you pay for it.

This is a great styling putty if you have short to medium length hair, it has a good natural hold that lasts and is amazing for adding texture. A little goes a long way with this product and I don't need to use much on my hair to achieve and hold the textured style I want. One thing I love about this putty is that its quite matte when in my hair so it doesn't look like I've got a lot of product in and gives me a natural look which I prefer. The texture of the putty is thick but works up easily in my hands and applies easily to my hair.This putty is perfect for my short/medium wavy hair and highly recommend it.

The KMS Conscious Style styling putty is great for adding style and texture to my hair.This styling putty is made from all natural ingredients and is free from silicone, sulphites and micro plastics which is a bonus for me knowing it is better for the environmentThe styling putty itself is like a creamy paste. It comes out the pot a little bit clay looking which looked a bit like it was going to be hard to use at first. Upon scooping some out of the jar I found that it is easy to apply, non-greasy, not at all sticky. The putty also distributes in my hair nicely with no visible residue.Using it was easy, I simply applied on towel dried hair to get a good control on my usual style but with a little definition. I used about time same sized amount as a 20p coin.The product itself smells a little weird but some “salon” products do have a strange odour sometimes. It’s not bad, it just smells a little unusual for my liking.The putty held my style in place all day and washed out easily too. It’s a good product that does work better than gel and is so much easier if you’re short on time in a morning.I like this product. It kept my hair looking fresh all day and I am happy to recommend.

I've got fine hair which doesn't react well to styling products and have found that putties are definitely the best option. This one's a good 'un, with a buttery feel to the putty itself and a really nice smell to it. The putty becomes transparent when rubbed between the fingers and then is ready to rub in. Good hold but not stiff. Overpriced, of course, but you do only need a fingertips worth and it should last a good while. Recommended.

A luxurious made styling putter for any type of hair included fine hair. Has a buttery texture when rubbed against your palm, so it glides nicely on the roots and hair strands.When I put this on my curly-wavy texturized hair it made it stay in place for a few hours and it was soft to touch, after I applied this product on my hair I find it easier to style my hair into a top bun which is amazing.

Generally I prefer waxes and putties for styling my hair, gels often leave lots of residues on both your hair and your hands.This putty as they call it has a nice fragrance. It was a bit difficult to get it out of the tub initially, I had to dig my finger tips in to get it to come out.Once I had some putty on my hands I started to work it into my towel dried hair. It worked in easily and gave my hair a nice smooth feel, almost like a conditioner.Once my hair had dried the putty gave a nice style, not stiff or sticky like a gel, you just know that it's giving some hold. Don't expect it to allow you to style a mohican on your head because it won't.The fact that this product is free of many of the usual hair product ingredients makes it a good choice for those with an ethical angle to their product choices.Verdict: A nice product with good texture and fragrance but a bit on the pricey side for a hair wax/putty.

As far as pasty type hair products this is the best I’ve used! Recommended by my hairdresser, a little goes a long way! It took some practice to get the amount and placement right and it will depend on your hair type and length as to how much to use. Great texturizing product for fine hair, can be used a couple days without making hair look or feel like it needs a shampoo!

Super Produkt

Maybe this isnt the right stuff for what I need but it doesnt hold my son's hair up long. He has super thin, straight and fine hair and it styles nicely but doesn't stay for more than 15 min. Also, kids run and roll around so I need an extra hold for a rowdy 2 yo. I've used it in my flyaways to keep them kinda chunky and it works well. Not greasy or sticky.

I have tried and tested A LOT of hair products. This is possibly one of the most balanced styling paste that I have ever used. Maybe not the strongest hold but it leaves hair nicely and looking all natural. I like it for that.

My son uses this and it should be a paste. The one we received was half empty and completely dried out. I wish he would’ve shown me before he tried to mix it and make it work, so I could’ve sent it back. It was a total waste.
