Suavecito Piece Pomade Matte Ounce Reviews Summary

Texture and Consistency

Pros:

• "Suavecito is a high quality, easy-to-work-with, and completely water soluble pomade."
• "It really is matte (but in a healthy way, not a fake way)."
• "Strong hold, doesn't form shell like other high hold products, leaves hair looking truly matte (if applied to dry hair), non greasy, easy to spread through hair compared to clays."
• "This pomade is more of a cream pomade. If you're used to the original suavecito this one feels like you're putting lotion on your hair."
• "It styles the hair well and doesnt feel heavy or greasy which is what matters."
• "It's easy to work in, style and restyle throughout the day."
• "This one gives you a dry, matte look and is manageable with only your fingers throughout the day."

Cons:

• "I received a defective product. My pomade came very dry at the top."
• "The vendor, Amazon, sent old product that was extremely dry to the point I had to throw both containers out."
• "This pomade doesn't dry and 'grip' like the old matte version. Hair is left shiny and flat."
• "The matte effect goes away easily and becomes shiny with water added thus defeating the purpose of the product."
• "This one is 'fiber-ish'. Does not apply smooth or evenly, had to use a little water to smooth it out before application."
• "It arrived and is virtually SOLID in consistency and I had a really hard time getting it to spread through my hair."
• "This stuff is lighter bodied than the Bedhead pomade, which is the only other one I know."

Scent

Pros:

• "Has a great smell."
• "Its a pleasant smell more on the masculine side best I can describe is like a sandalwood scent."
• "After using I won’t go back to paste. I use Suavecito shine free everyday now and smells great too."
• "The hair product smells so good. It's the original smell."
• "Smells fantastic and scent last all day."
• "Smells great, holds his thick blonde hair, and easy to apply!"
• "It smells INCREDIBLE."

Cons:

• "The worst part has to be the smell."
• "Absolutely horrible smell. Wife asked me if I had started using Ax body spray."
• "I wish the scent was better (smells like cheap cologne)."
• "The scent is not bad but it could be a little lighter."
• "I didn't like the scent, smells like body odor."
• "Scent is also not as pleasant as the regular orange suavecito."
• "Also, I was not a fan of the smell because it smelled kind of unnatural."

Hold and Performance

Pros:

• "Holds my hair without looking like I put glue or oil in it."
• "I get all day hold for my hair without it looking shiny and wet or weighted down."
• "So much better than the firme hold. More of an easy to spread cream with a great balance of hold and natural look."
• "Great product, lasts all day, makes hair look nice as well."
• "I use this every day. I have very thick, short hair and suavecito does a great job taming it."
• "This product holds all day. My husband works in a kitchen for 8 hours a day, and it maintains the hold through the heat and sweat."
• "Holds very well and gives you a more natural look."

Cons:

• "It didn't hold well. At times even when I put a lot in my hair, within a few hours my hair will sometimes still look like a mess."
• "Even if I style it without any water the hold is minimal at best, it'll only hold my hair for minutes if even that."
• "I want to love this product but it just doesn’t hold."
• "Feels more like a light hold gel than a pomade, I used it about 2 times and it gave my hair zero hold even after blow drying it."
• "This product worked for a while, but with average daily activities 3-4 hours later I get fly aways."
• "Very weak hold that fell completely flat within an hour."
• "It holds more like a hard gel. Also this stuff does not hold well while your working or being active and it does not reshape well."

Application and Washability

Pros:

• "Easily refreshes with water, though I've never needed to, but also easily washes out."
• "Sauvecito completely washes out with just water (no shampoo required)."
• "Washes out with water and doesn’t pull my hair out haha."
• "Washes out with water and doesn’t leave my hair feeling dirty."
• "It is a water-based pomade that is easy to apply and wash out."
• "It's easy to wash off with just water."
• "I love the non-shiny look of this pomade, and how easily it washes out."

Cons:

• "It has alcohol in it, and though I'm not sure if that is the cause, it does dry out my hair."
• "Which happens to have Phenoxyethenol - which I'm allergic to. Can no longer use this product."
• "even when using small amount and really rubbing it into palms, it leaves a white residue on hair."
• "The product leaves a white residue in your hair, would prefer a clear solution."
• "Love suavacito products but this matte version is awful. Zero hold, hard to disperse through the hair so leaves white chunks."
• "It makes your hair feel really hard and extremely dry, combing your fingers through your hair feels disgusting."
• "It is water based but it is very hard on hair. Hair is hard to brush or comb once it sets on hair."
