FINAL VERDICT
This wax stick delivers dependable hold using a blend of natural waxes, castor oil, and a synthetic polymer for lasting control. It performs well for structured styles and edge smoothing while remaining relatively clean for a conventional styling product. Some ingredients, including alcohol denat and the chosen preservative system, make it less ideal for highly sensitive users or those who prefer fully biodegradable styling polymers. Still, it offers solid performance and reasonable safety with mindful use.
