GUYS... I literally just had the realization that this might have been the last video I shoot in this current studio! I am due to move next week and where we are moving, I will have an all new built out studio space to make content in and while that will hopefully be super awesome.. I cant help but feel a bit sad. I have spent 4 years making content in this house and making hair products actually. This will be a big change.. but I think you guys are going to love it! ONWARD WE GO!
@@MMTV I'm in no means negatively critizing you but actually positively critizing a point that maybe... Just maybe.. could help.. and it's from a "viewer's perspective" Try making the content more relateable, products (hair or other things) that are more so on the common usage of the population. Reviewing a product out of the world market and heavily condensed in Asian market would not per say be an attractive watch for most of us. Also imo making those "top products of 2019, 2020".. "top hair products for summer" might give you a... "Kick" of viewer base until you get things further in your business. Take it with a grain of salt cause I'm by no means experienced in any of this business
This stuff looks cool actually! Awesome endurance and great texture. There's another cool brand from Singapore that would be cool to see you check out is Ziggy Supply. They've got some great products in their line would love to see your opinion on them! Other than that another great video Mike! Thank you!
Yep I second this. Their Mad Wax and Clay of the Undead are serious daily driver materials, likewise for Apestomen. There's another brand called Gerson and Co. and they too have some good stuff.
In my country, it is a very famous product, but people is aware of its ingredients. It is full of chemicals and they said it is bad, can cause baldness. What do you think about it?
Literally this is the only product that actually fit with thick hair and done a great job at absorb excess oil and sweat.I can't see why in western country don't use but it really fit with typical asian hair type in most tropical country.The fun fact is groomers in VietNam 🇻🇳start the hairgame with this clay,price point and performance are great,really bang for our bucks.Btw video on point as always,hope you and your family can get through this pandemic From VietNam 🇻🇳with love
Recently received my first order of your grooming oil bay rum scent. Both me and my girlfriend absolutely love it. She kept getting close to smell my face 😁 I'd rock a cologne of that same scent and I'm not even a cologne guy.
It was my first time really trying to put together a real sequence like that. I feel like after doing it I could do some stuff so much better next time, but I’m super critical of myself haha. Thanks so much 💪
Actually, in my country, Volcanic clay is the common wax for newbie, I mean the group of people who just start to use styling wax because of its heavy hold. However, those who have used Volcanic clay for a certain period of time tend to shift towards using a more expensive one,like Cavalier clay or Kevin Murphy Rough Rider. This is because using Volcanic clay for a long time can have a negative effect on our hair, it is too dry
I can see that point simply for the pliability issue that I outlined. I’d go for cavalier personally still. I didn’t however feel like it made my hair TOO dry. I think there are products out there that have been drier, and not washed out as easy, leaving it dry after a rinse even.
Well I like to try new products. I am curious if this clay is as dry as the new American Gardens formula. So, I did order this from a link you shared with this awesome video as well as the nitro wax.
Hey Mike, here for a question about Dauntless. I’ve just cut myself a nice textured crew cut. I’m looking for a product that has enough hold and texture to for it to look matte and texturized throughout the day, and I want to try a product from the Dauntless line. Which one would you recommend?
If you want a matte finish I’d go with the matte paste. It’s also the only product I label as having texture from clays. The pomade is not in that category obviously, and the wax cream has great hold, awesome versatility, but it’s a natural finish not matte.
Modern Man TV Thanks man, will get one from my local distributor first thing tomorrow. The scent profile looks really good also. I’m really into fragrances so excited to see how the scent of the products smell like.
Harrison Richards possibly! I’m not closing the door on it as of now. Initially my matte paste was formulated as a clay, however later on I decided to give it a creamier scoop and call it matte paste, just in case later I wanted to make another clay. For me the matte paste has several clay characteristics tho so it’s kinda just one of those same old things where we go back to the real differences between clays/matte pastes. When you break it down there’s not much difference, except for the case of the heavy clay. If your asking about a heavy clay, then I don’t yet have a formula nailed down, but I haven’t given up my interest yet either.
That one is a gel, if you dont like gel you could try their newer wax "cerilla de gorila" or gorilla earwax. IK, They have some weird names for their products.
This is the cheaper version of Kevin Murphy Rough Rider (but water based so it’s washed out easier), but Volcanic Clay is fantastic at forward quif. Both are hell to my hair type-thick dry hair but they are national icon in Vietnam. But I think next time you review stuff dry like Volcanic Clay, KMRR, Odouds, why don’t wear a helmet? Let’s see how many percent could the style go back to after 15 mins helmet
I don’t generally wear a helmet haha. I realize that might be someone others do, especially in other countries but that’s not quite feasible for me haha. Plus it’s not quite fair either. It would be like putting a hat on and then faulting the product for the effect of the hat.
I think it’s not about faulting the product but that is to see how reworkable it is. Volcanic Clay and Cavalier Clay are among products with that easy reworkability. In my country people usually spend 30 mins wearing helmet per day for casual travelling. So it’s an important feature to look good both before and after the moving.
ibby81ae well you can use pretty much any clay on damp hair. I don’t style that way usually tho so if your asking if there’s a clay out there that gives the same results on damp hair, as it does on dry, then I don’t know of any. Generally when styling on damp hair, when using a clay anyway, your restricting some of the results with the slight dampness because instead of the clays going to work to provide all the attributes they can provide ( volume, texture, etc) they first have to goto work to absorb the water that’s in your hair, and then try to display the clay effects. You will see some, but not as much as dry hair and that’s why I always do it.
Its a white label product from China fyi :))))) you should check the aurene styling clay. Aurane and volcanic (at least the first version lol) are exactly the same.
I’ve explored this with a viewer from Instagram actually. We looked at the labels side by side and they don’t have the same ingredients. Can’t be white label if there’s not another product with the same ingredients in the same order. If I find one I’m happy to make a video about it as I have with other white label products, but I can’t just call something white label because some folks feel like it is. I’ve seen the labels haha they don’t say the same things.
As I said, at least the first version of the product, I havent used the product since then. And the product is popular in my country because its cheap and the hold makes it very easy too use, which is good for starters. I personally like your products way way more.
Thái Đinh there’s been brands that have started out doing white label and then switched so you could be correct. I actually appreciate that more when they do that because it shows they care about not being a white label brand. I also am really glad your liking my products too that’s incredible to hear. Thank you very much.
Lol sure. Let’s get to the point. Maybe if you didn’t have the attention span of a doorknob you’d see that when I’m talking... I’m explaining stuff....that is the point! Hopefully that wasn’t too long for you 😂

Bro this is so famous in asia, almost everyone has it
That Dauntless lineup beside your editing station ... something to be proud of 👏👏
Thanks man! I’ve got every collab I’ve done up there too. It’s crazy to see all we’ve done
Yup, almost every single groomer in Vietnam have this!!
Dont know how you dont have more subscribers. This is a great channel.
I’m wondering that myself good sir. Maybe one day!

What is the best matte product with strong hold for a guy that’s starting to thin out hair. Water based

Cool! Mixing up the hairstyle.💯🔥🤘
That haircut is so dope! What are the measurements mike ?
I have been using volcanic clay since 2019. He is the best for every hair length. From short to even medium/long. Hold is better than blumaan/zerds.
Great intro man
Could you please review the helium product line
asian thick hair, hot climate, great hold.. Thanks Mike.. here is the charm!
This product give me so much volume, texture and long duration
And I think it's the heaviest product, heavier than claymation
This product can hold 24 hours
@@nguyenjames3016 ez to style? Will it weigh the hair down?
@@coregunner55 a little bit difficult to restyle, this clay for thick to super thick hair :D

WOoo... singapore 🇸🇬 brand.
Hi
Well I like to try new products. I am curious if this clay is as dry as the new American Gardens formula. So, I did order this from a link you shared with this awesome video as well as the nitro wax.
I think this was drier than gardens.
Hello, what is the product on your hair in your intro at 00:30 ? :)
original by Blumaan!
better hold transcend or nevermore?
can you do a review for stephan nolan 603 its a vietnamese homebrew
Man can you recommend a budget water based pomade
