The Hair Clay I Switched to After 18 Years of Using the Same Product

I'm a creature of habit, especially when it comes to my hair. For 18 years, I used the exact same hair clay and never really thought about changing it.

Then I tried Jack Henry Hair Clay.

A few months later, it's officially replaced the product I'd been using for nearly two decades.

What I love most is that it gives my hair texture, volume, and a little extra wave without looking like there's product in it. My hair is naturally only slightly wavy, and this helps bring out that texture while cutting down on frizz. The finish is completely matte, which means there's no shine or greasy look. It just looks like naturally good hair. It also holds all day without feeling stiff or crunchy.

My routine couldn't be simpler:

  1. Wait until my hair is almost completely dry.

  2. Take a small amount of clay on my fingertips.

  3. Rub it between all of my fingers.

  4. Massage it through my hair until I get that slightly messy, "just rolled out of bed but somehow still put together" look.

That's it!! Here’s a little video tutorial, if you’d like to see.

I prefer my hair a little longer, and this gives me more volume and texture while still looking natural. It keeps everything in place all day, and because it's a matte finish, nobody can tell I'm wearing anything at all.

After 18 years of using the same product, it feels good to switch things up and try something new.
