Thanks so much for posting this Matt. So awesome to see how well XL works in your hair man. Great video presentation as always!
Thanks so much man!
Super vidal yes!
To TDM Style and The Salon Guy... I would like to say something you will like but I want to make sure you see this comment first. Something I need to say
SweatyMonkey hi
Well... I just wanted to say that I bought Clutch XL. This shit is awesome. Idk if you remember me trolling ya for reasons I will not rehash now. I have tried TONS of other products and this is by far the best i have ever used. application, pliability, hold, texture and washout are all there. My apologies for past comments. You have a very good products man. BUT i do have one critique... the thin aluminum tub it comes in. too cheap, man. work on packaging and this product will seriously be 10/10 in my eyes. Great work
This stuff is awesome. Great review Matt! Everything from the smell to the hold is exceptional!
Thanks! Glad you like it.
I just got it in the mail yesterday!:)
Cool bean. Do you like the clay?
Another great review 🔥🔥
Thanks!
AWESOME review! Makes me want to try this now. I am still trying to find which product is great for my hair.
Thank you kindly!
@@TDMStyle hey bro i was wondering if i have thick straight hair shld i get the normal or xl version
Ok, so it's been week 2..and now I see the difference.. I'll be honest, I threw out the Clutch Xl this morning.. I've been testing it out for 2 weeks now, and compared to the Kevin Murphy Night Rider, it doesn't even come close.
It makes my hair feel waxy, shiny and heavy. Hold wise, it's ok.
Kevin murphy night rider keeps hair matte, the hold is incredible and it also thickens hair. I also today picked up the Mitch reformer to try it out. Compared to the Mitch matterial, it's got a tad bit less hold, but still good and matte finish. Both are phenomenal pre stylers too! Cocktailing them together gives great results too.
So far, to me, the ultimate best at hold and matteness is Kevin Murphy Night Rider. Mitch matterial comes very close to it and thickens the hair even more. Mitch reformer gives a softer feel, also nice volume and thickness and decent hold.
I was excited about the salon guy's clutch xl, but after 2 weeks of using it, I didn't find it to work well with my hair.
Tamas Menyhart i‘ve used night rider and to be honest it was complete shit. I have never used a product as bad as night ridee and also the product couldn’t hold my hair for even an hour and i have short hair
mxjxvxc 1 u probably have like really fine hair so the product weighs it down
Henry Hunch it‘s a paste my friend and not clay it isn‘t supposed to weight much. And nah my hair is about medium
mxjxvxc 1 ight then what does work for ur hair
Henry Hunch even claymation holds my hair better then night rider und clutch is better then claymation
Can you do a video update about this hair product? Is it hold up in 2020 ?
Damn, I really want to buy this now! Especially because you talked about this clay not being heavy in the hair. I like clays, but my hair isn't thick so they just make it flop after a couple hours.
It's definitely worth a try!
You are TOP on RUclips! I am glad to find this channel)
Thank you so much!
And I love it!
Glad you like it!
Thumbs up 👍👍👍
Ok so I've been using clutch XL for a good week now.. And here is what I think comparing it to Kevin Murphy Night Rider..
So, clutch XL has a great hold but I have to layer it. If I don't, it'll give a more medium hold. The problem is that if I layer it, it then will feel a bit heavy and shiny.. Unless I use hairspray, and then, the spray will suck out that shiny feel to it. Now, with the Kevin Murphy Night Rider, I have literally no shine whatsoever, and as soon as I put in a tiny bit, I right away feel the hold.. Like.. Hair feels tighter right away.. And it is super light too. They both wash out super easy, both have a great scent.. Night Rider has more of a light citrus scent, very light and pleasant.
I have medium fine hair, so personally, I prefer night rider from Kevin Murphy, because I don't really need hairspray with it and my hair remains pliable and light.
With clutch XL, I like to use it with one scoop, which will give me a good hold and texture and my hair will be light. And then I'll add a touch of hairspray. If I add a little more clutch, for more hold, I feel the hair becoming heavier and shinier.
They're both great clay / pastes, both washout super easily, both have great scents, but I feel that for finer hair, Kevin Murphy is better. I'll obviously use clutch XL for when I jut want more of a looser look.
My hair now is medium long, messy like Ian Somerhalder in the TV show vampire diaries.
So it's not the pushed back look.
I'm curious to hear your opinion whenever you review Night Rider.
Thanks for this! It’ll definitely be interesting to see how Night Rider works for me.
Is clutch XL shinier than the normal one?
I want to see how this product works in my thick straight hair.
I’d guess it would work great for you.
Great review as always 👌🏼😎 I actually was going to get clutch, but then saw the XL version was now available, so since I don't like hairspray, I gave XL a go. I really enjoy using it. I am still learning a bit as far as how much to use, because à little goes à long way LOL trying to compare it to
" Kevin Murphy Night Rider" .. They're quite similar with slight differences. Both are excellent products.
But now, I'm curious about the regular Clutch haha might try that next to see how much more hold XL has over the regular one.
What do you think? Maybe 30% more hold on the XL version?
Thanks so much! Kevin Murphy products are still on my to-do list. And good question about the hold! Yeah I think probably 25 - 30% more hold on XL is pretty accurate.
TDM Style haha you'll get there eventually with the Kevin Murphy ones hahaha 😁
I think the regular Clutch for me would be a little too "soft".. XL has similar hold to the Kevin Murphy Night Rider, and I think that, unless I use hairspray, my hair wouldn't hold as well.. But then my hair is medium thick, so maybe I'll try it anyway 🙂
For someone with fine hair, do you think this product would still work for me?
I don't see why not! Regular Clutch worked great for Robin with his fine hair, and this is just a stronger hold version.
Ever thought about reviewing Flag Ship's paste ? :)
Yep, it’s on my to-do list 😉
How many scoops of normal clutch do you use?
Usually only need one nice sized scoop.
Just picked up a can. Can’t wait to try it out awesome review!
Thanks! I hope you like it!
TDM Style so far it seems cool but oh for the life of me it was REALLY hard to apply. Like I’m talkin at least 10 hairs probably pulled out of my head. Any advice? I’ve got very thick and moderately wavy hair
Sounds like you prob just put too much in at once. Especially with XL a little goes a long way, so I’d try starting with a smaller scoop.
TDM Style will do. Thanks man!
Man your hair colour is amazing can you please tell me the products names that you used to get that insane colour!!!
Thanks! First it was highlighted just to lighten it, then the color is Pravana Wild Orchid :)
I was watching HDF revisit when I saw this :P
hey brother, do you think you could review shear revival's crystal lake and the man who knocks? a water based and oil based pomade. your hair's at that dope length where pomade could work well
I’ll add ‘em to my to-do list!
Does needing to use less of the product mean the XL might be a better value over the regular? oh, and is Flagship Dead Sea clay on your to do list for the future? thanks.
Possibly - personally I still like regular Clutch a bit more just cause it’s softer and slightly easier to apply, but you can use a small amount of XL for the same style. And you bet! Flagship is on my list.
I’m wondering if you can give me some advice. Since I got my hair cut (undercut, like a 2 fade ish) the back sides seem to flop over now, which was never a problem with my hair before. Also apparently I have another cowlick back there so 2 cowlicks in the back of my head, but no matter my hair length it’s never been an issue. I’ve tried to put a bit more product (only a little) to smooth the floppy sides out but to no avail. Any suggestions? Also any suggestions on a good hairstyle for hair about 4 inches in the front, 2/12 ish in the back as my hairstyle doesn’t work with this new length. As always keep up the great content Matt!!
I’ve also got fine, wavy hair
Sounds like you might be better off with blended sides rather than what sounds like a disconnected undercut. With blending, the sides of the top will have less of a tendency to fall over like you're describing. In the meantime the best thing I can suggest is to try using a prestyler that adds hold and really blow dry those sections the direction that you want them to lay, to "force" them into position as much as possible.
And as for the 4 inch tapered cut, you can definitely do all sorts of cool styles with that like a forward quiff, textured messy styles, fringe, etc. Hope this helps!
I really want to use this product BUT this clay is still not available in asia, so i still use claymation or hybrid clay :(
superRazhA yes.. Iam from Indonesia and nobody sell this product here
Hahaha Merica
Which is better, clutch clay xl or clutch clay? which of these products better all day keeps the pendant and does not make them fat or the appearance as if it is wet
They both have the same matte finish and texture, XL just has stronger hold.
So comparing clutch to crafted which one is better?
They’re entirely different so it depends on what you want.
Hey matt got a question!! Is this a clay wax type product? I mean as its waxier.... So is this wax based clay?
It's water-based, but yes it does have a fairly high wax content. The OG version is less waxy than XL.
Excellent reviews!! Props!! Label M or Clutch XL? For thicker wavy mane.... Hold/Longevity/Ease of Use?
Thanks! Well I’ve only just started testing the Label M matte paste, but first impressions, Clutch XL has quite stronger hold. Label M is a bit more matte and softer in the hair though.
Got it... I imagine it being a bit closer to Clutch? As opposed to XL? Haven't yet tried it, but it's on the way... Wondered how it compared... Thanks for taking the time man :) Feedback appreciated! Looking forward to perhaps a future Level M Matte Paste review (as compared to Clutch/Clutch XL)... PS: I want your hair in my next life ;) Cheers
Thanks for the kind words man! Yeah I suppose the Label M is a bit closer to regular Clutch in terms of hold/softness. Although for me regular Clutch has a stronger hold still. The Label M does seem like a true medium hold.
Ha
Can you tell me ~
Blacklabel profile putty and Clutch XL and Blind barber 60 wax
Which one is better~please
I haven’t yet tried Black Label or Blind Barber so I can’t really say. Sorry!
Which one do you use regularly, xl or the normal clutch?
Both really, but I prefer normal Clutch.
Bro according to you which has more hold clutch xl or pregame wax paste
Pre Game, but they are verrry different products so it depends what you want.
Looking at others comments this sounds and performs pretty much like MUK purple and MUK yellow.
Never used any of those myself, so I can't really say how they might compare.
Can I use it in wet hair?
You can, but personally I'd recommend using it in dry hair for best results. Same goes for most clays in my opinion. For me they always work better in dry hair.
Can I have your opinion on what product to buy? I have thick and slightly wavy hair and my hair is around 5 inches long. I’ve been thinking about getting O’Douds Matte Paste or nostalgic grooming’s clay but I don’t want to buy something that won’t work well for me
Unfortunately I haven’t tried either of those yet, so I can’t give you my opinion on those particular ones. But your hair sounds very similar to mine, so I’d say Clutch (reg or XL) should work great for you. Other stuff I’m also loving lately are the Stickmore Clay Fiber and Morris Motley Chrome.
TDM Style okay I’ll have to try them out. thank you for answering me. you’re one of the only youtubers I know that answer so fast. I love your videos. keep up the good work!!
Cheers man! 🙏🏻
What is the best matte product with best hold easy to apply?
Which version of clutch is better for fine hair?
Either really, but I prefer the OG version.
TDM Style why do you prefer the og one?
XL version is a bit waxier and sticker for the extra hold. For me the regular one works perfectly fine in the hold department, and applies a bit more easily.
Are you affiliated with 'the salon guy' in any shape or form?
No I am not. I just like his products!
You ever got a haircut from the salon guy?
Nope. I wish!
Is this product workout for a quiff?
Certainly.
Does clutch xl work on any hair length?
I’d say short and medium. I don’t think I’d really use clays in general on long hair.
Is your hair naturly soft and straight ?
Also review pacinos matte at some point
Hmm. I have been curious about that line.
Products that I've used that I prefer to Clutch: claymation, cavalier, northern lights matte paste, Lockharts matte clay
is petrolatum bad for hair tho
Nah. There is a misconception about it being bad but it's fine. Maybe if you use it A LOT you might have some buildup, but nothing a good shampoo won't take care of.
Next Antigravity?
Yup.
Test Apothecary 87 clay pomade)
And do you have" Nevermore "?
Apothecary 87 is on my to-do list. I do also have Nevermore, yes. I wasn't really planning on reviewing it though since it was a limited release.
TDM Style ok, maybe take photo on instagram with nevermore)
what are your thoughts on nevermore?
I like it! Definitely unique and holds up well.
@@TDMStyle wait, you have Nevermore but didnt review it? Id be interested! Also, they're re-releasing it soon again, so the timing would be good :)
Clutch or clutch xl?
Personally I prefer regular Clutch.
Can you review the holy black matte clay?
I’ll add it to my list!
Hey men! First of all I like your video A LOT! They have been really REALLY helpful and informative, thanks a lot for that!!
I wanted to ask you... I’m just starting to really take care of my hair, but I’ve never used anything besides a pomade and I have wavy thick medium hair, and I want to try something like a clay or something but there are just too many out there! In your opinion which one or which ones are the best, that you recommend I should be looking into? Bluuman? By vilain? Moroccan oil? Clutch?
I really need your help men! Please!
Thanks! Well my personal favorites are Clutch, Stickmore Clay Fiber, and Fuertes clay right now. I’d definitely recommend trying any of those for your hair type! Of those 3, Fuertes is oil-based and has a softer hold and feel to it. Clutch and Stickmore have similar hold levels. I hope this helps!
TDM Style thank you very much!! One last question, which Pre-styler would you recommend for my type of hair?
You’re welcome! My personal favorite prestyler is still 25 spray by TheSalonGuy. Makes my hair feel and look amazing.
Does clutch XL, regular Clutch and stickmore clay fiber make your hair feel tangled and dry when you run your fingers through it and which one would you prefer with a guy who has thick slightly wavy hair?
I don't have a dry or tangly feeling with any of them. Clutch XL has a bit more stickiness than the others but aside from that, I love all 3. It's honestly hard to recommend just one because they all work really well and have similar results in terms of texture, hold and finish. I think any of them would work for you.
"Curly to straight" ?
Can u plzz do a review on mister pompadour textured powder plz?
hemant panjwani it is shitty product
Qasem Imad actually I have fine hair and searching for good products that gives good hold without blowdryer i don’t like using blowdryer it cause my hair fall😭
Why does thesalonguy have 2 clays?(great review as always btw)
Hello Lil James :-)
First he made the original Clutch clay, but after some time custoumers requested more hold. Therefore, he made Clutch XL with which has more hold than original Clutch
its 26.99 kinda high
Imo it’s worth it for the price especially considering it’s free shipping. Other salon brands are similar prices for less product, like Moroccanoil or Baxter these days charge around $23 for 2oz, with shipping on top of that.
@@TDMStyle I have long very thick wavy hair should i get clutch, xl or hustle
Depends what you're looking for in terms of hold strength etc. Clutch is medium-firm, XL is firmer and waxier, Hustle is solid medium with a soft natural finish.
@@TDMStyle thank you sir im going to go with xl wanna try something other than cavalier 🙏
I have something better than clutch. It from my native town . I am from Ukraine.
(it is paste which have kaolin). So now i can't say that clutch is clay killer, but still one of the best
Antoshka what is it
vCuphead X vSupreme "scissor hands EGOIST " matte paste
I bought this product because of you. What can I say. Smell is incredible. The texture of the hair and the shine is also nice. Washability is perfect. The hold is moderate as best. But the application is horrible. It is soooo tacky. It kills it for me. It is such a shame. Only by villain products are worse in application.
XL is definitely tackier than regular Clutch. Try using a smaller amount and layer in more if needed. It doesn’t feel nearly as sticky if you use a little bit and really you don’t need much at all. Hope this helps.
As biased as always
Sure, cause obviously if a guy likes a product and it works well, that means he’s biased. 🙄 Here’s a simple solution: if you think my videos are biased, then don’t watch them. 🤷🏻♂️
Watch it or not is my rights 😏. To comment or not is also still my rights🙂 . The salon guy really gave u some money to keep u advertising their products
Here’s the thing. If a person does an ad or otherwise sponsored video, the FTC requires that it is presented in the video as such. To do an ad without saying it is an ad, would be against FTC guidelines. That just isn’t something I would do, because I’m not dishonest, and I’m also not an idiot. Think what you want, but I have never been paid by anyone for any of my videos. I review products. Reviews are based on my experience with said products. Obviously there are some I will like more than others. If you don’t understand that that’s literally the nature and the point of reviews in the first place, then I can’t help you.
