Label M LABEL M Matte Paste 120,0 ml, 4.2 oz

Product Information

You can choose to simply towel-dry it until it’s damp or blow-dry it. Apply the label.m matt paste to damp hair if you’d prefer a bit more shine, or dry hair if you want a stronger hold and a more matte finish. I’d say the finish was low shine or natural-finish and gradually dulled as the day progressed which was absolutely fine. What sets the Label. M Matt Paste 120ml apart from other similar products is its unique formula containing beeswax, which gives hair a natural-looking finish without leaving any residue behind. Additionally, this paste contains kaolin clay, which absorbs excess oil on the scalp while providing a matte finish.

Overall, the main thing that sets these products apart is the hold. If you’re looking for a stronger hold but still want the same low-shine finish of label.m matt paste, consider going for Claymation instead. 2. Label M Matt Paste Vs American Crew Fiber To use Label. M Matt Paste 120ml, start by applying a small amount to dry hair and working it through evenly from roots to tips using your fingers or a comb. For added volume and texture, apply the paste to damp hair before blow-drying. It’s water-based and water-soluble, washing out very easily with just water alone most of the time. A lot of the hold will be generated from the roots, so don’t make the common mistake of simply applying the paste to the tips. Label M is a reputable brand with people who know what they are doing, so you can be rest assured that it won’t damage your hair. While the brand does claim to create products to promote healthy hair, I don’t think the matte paste improves the health of your hair, it just maintains the hair’s current health. The Matte Paste’s ingredients help to coat and protect the hair from environmental damage, which I find handy when I use it as a pre-styler, because it gives me a barrier of protection from the heat styling.

It’s a pretty expensive product but considering the quality of the finish and ease of application, it’s just about justified. The more you apply, the heavier it’ll feel and the more difficult it’ll be to build texture and volume with. Label M Matt Paste has a creamier and lighter consistency than the grittier Claymation. Although the two products produce a similar low-shine finish, you can expect a stronger hold with Claymation.

This really wasn’t an issue because the product is great for restyling. The soft, pliable hold you get can easily be brushed or finger-combed through halfway through the day if necessary. When my hair is short, Label.m Matte Paste helps to maintain the shape I created in my hair from blow drying throughout the day. The lightweight hold allows for movement and the structure is enough to keep reworking the style and for maintaining volume. That said, the lightweight hold is also the reason the product doesn’t work in longer hair styles, because it can’t support the extra weight and stop the long hair from falling apart. It may be a little weaker than what you’d expect from a hair paste and definitely weaker than a hair clay. Start working the paste into your hair, distributing it in every direction, and coating the strands from root-to-tip. Overall, it looks sleek. Everything about it oozes “professional stylist”– it’s what you’d expect to find on the shelf of a salon.If you were planning on applying some sea salt spray or other texturizing pre-styler, it’s a good idea to do it before blow-drying to really maximize the effect. 2. Break Down A Dime-Sized Amount It isn’t eye-catching by any means but goes well with the overall minimalist and fashion-focused aesthetic. If you’re blow-drying, use it as an opportunity to add lift and volume by tousling and finger-combing against the direction growth while doing it.
