Botanic Hearth Tea Tree Shaping Cream, Hair Styling Cream with Collagen & Biotin - Style & Texture, Strong & Flexible Hold, for All Hair Types - Men and Women - Made in USA - 7 oz

It doesn't hold or sculpt hair but it does work very well as a moisturizer right after a shower and before the other hair products you use. It also has a very pleasant odor.

Great hold.

Being that the packaging and formulation is similar to the Paul Mitchell product, I'm basing this review on how well it performs compared to that, as I'm sure many others will be in the same boat; looking to replace that expensive name brand product.Unfortunately, at that purpose this formulation fails. It has a pleasant but odd smell that immediately reminds you it is not the name brand. The consistency is much different, more like a lotion than a paste. I find not having to use barely any water with this product.As far as performance, I find the hold of this to be very weak. Maybe if you use tons of it, it would be ok, but then why not just buy the name brand and use a pea-sized amount? The hold is not good and is usually disheveled by the end of the day, while the name brand would work for a couple days at a time.I really like that it is a larger and cheaper alternative to the name brand, but unfortunately just isn't the same quality.

I'm not an expert by any means (I'm a boomer). When it comes to hair product, I've been using a clear hair gel for probably a dozen years and was satisfied with it. When my hair gel ran out this time, I didn't really have the time to go out and buy something at a drugstore, so I went on Amazon. I didn't see the jail product that I've been using for several years, so I decided to try something new. I like the smell of tea tree oil. So I picked this product. Note that this is a cream. So after about a week of trial and error, with always getting too much in my hair, I finally found the sweet spot and I'm using just enough to not have white streaks in my hair. I'm satisfied now. It's not quite as easy for me to use as a gel, which is why I rated it four stars. I would have given it four and a half stars if that was an option. But it smells good and it works and it lasts throughout the day.

I am more inclined to think a middleman emptied the contents and refilled it with a cheap hand cream versus a company actually producing this for use in your hair. The seal under the lid was not secured so it's hard to tell if it had been opened. Has the consistency of a hand cream, very light and shinny or greasy. The scent is like a cheap hand lotion from the dollar store. I applied it to completely dry hair and it made it look flat and greasy with very little hold. No where near the matte look I was hoping for. I guess this is what you get when you try to save money and not get the name brand. My wife is saying I told you so. Momma always said ordering on Amazon is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get.

Good

Hair paste hold and shapes your style great

Thought this would give me volume/hold to my short hair but didn't do either
