Review: Best matte texture product I’ve found - I have short hair, which is between 1” to 3” on top. I have been using matte texture products for about 25 years now. Previously American Crew Fiber was my go-to day to day product, or Hanz De Fuko Claymation for stronger hold and a super matte finish. That was until I found Shear Revival Northern Lights. The finish is great and the hold lasts all day even on a breezy day. The good thing is whilst the hold is strong it can be re-positioned throughout the day. The jar is bigger than I expected, albeit it is quite an expensive product (£20 for 96g at time of purchase). Application, it breaks down nicely in the hands without having to use loads of friction to warm it up an ‘activate’ it. It has a grippy but not tacky feel It distributes through the hair nicely. I don’t like to use shampoo every day, but it rinses out in the shower well with so I can wash my hair every other day with no product build up. The one small criticism I have is the smell when it’s in the jar is a bit strong but it doesn’t seem to smell in the hair. I’m converted for life now.
Review: Good hold, great scent, but pricey - The Shear Revival Northern Lights Matte smells amazing and provides a solid, reliable hold that lasts through the day. The texture is nice and matte, giving a natural look without feeling greasy. That said, it is on the expensive side — there are other pomades out there that perform just as well for less. Overall, a quality product if you don’t mind paying a bit extra for the scent and brand.
