Clay Pomade

This pomade is for you if:

• You want the most versatile BYRD product (works on any hair type)
• You need all-day hold that lasts from morning to night
• You prefer matte, natural finish over shine
• You want to apply on dry hair for maximum control
• Your hair is either thick/unruly (needs control) OR fine (needs volume)
• You want epic control without shine or flyaways

Choose BYRD Matte Pomade instead if: You want easier washout or prefer medium hold for casual styles—this clay is stronger and takes more effort to wash out.

Choose BYRD Classic Pomade instead if: You specifically want slick, shiny styles instead of matte texture.

• Strong, all-day hold from morning to evening
• Ultra-matte finish with natural texture
• Adds volume to fine hair, controls thick hair
• Works on dry hair for maximum grip and control
• Bentonite and kaolin clays absorb excess oil
• Diatomaceous earth creates matte finish without dryness
• Workable and reworkable throughout the day

Built with solid ingredients:
Bentonite is a natural volcanic clay that provides strong, flexible hold while absorbing excess oil. Diatomaceous earth (fossilized algae) adds texture and creates the ultra-matte finish without making hair look dry or powdery. Kaolin is a gentle white clay that adds structure and volume. The clay-wax blend combines the best of both formulas: waxes (ozokerite, microcrystalline, carnauba, candelilla) provide pliable hold and workability, while clays provide texture and matte finish. Castor oil conditions hair and prevents dryness from the clay.

Proven to perform:
This is BYRD's most versatile product because it works on any hair type. Fine hair gets volume and lift from the clay texture. Thick, unruly hair gets all-day control and taming. The strong hold lasts from morning to evening without losing shape or developing flyaways. Works best on dry hair for maximum control and grip. The matte finish looks natural and modern—no shine, no grease, just defined, textured hair. Remains workable throughout the day so you can restyle without reapplying.

Made to help men look sharp and feel confident:
Flat, shapeless hair makes you look unkempt. Overly shiny hair makes you look dated. This clay pomade gives you that modern, matte-textured look that works for everything from business casual to going out. Strong hold means your hair looks intentional and stays in place all day.

Best on: Dry hair for maximum control. Can be used on damp hair for lighter hold and easier distribution.

Amount: Start with a dime to nickel-sized amount. Clay products go further than you'd think once warmed.

Warm it up: Rub product vigorously between palms until it softens and becomes pliable. This step is crucial for even distribution.

Application: Work through hair from roots to tips, focusing on areas where you need volume or control. The clay adds immediate texture and grip.

Styling: Shape hair into desired style—textured messy look, structured pompadour, side part, or anything in between. The strong hold locks your style in place.

Reworking: Unlike gels or sprays, this clay stays workable. Reshape throughout the day without adding more product.

Frequency: Use daily or as needed. One jar lasts 8-12 weeks with daily use. Wash out thoroughly with shampoo.

Bentonite Clay

Bentonite is a volcanic clay formed from weathered volcanic ash. Its unique structure allows it to absorb several times its weight in oil and water, making it perfect for creating texture and matte finish in styling products. It provides strong, flexible hold while keeping hair looking clean and natural—no grease, no shine, just defined texture.
