Shop what your barber used. Layrite Natural Matte Cream is a medium-hold, matte-finish hair cream for fine to medium-thick hair, and for wavy or curly hair that needs frizz-free definition. Walked out of the chair looking suspiciously good? There's a decent chance this was the reason. It's the lightweight, water-based cream our barbers reach for when you want texture and hold without anyone knowing you're wearing product. You get flexible, medium hold all day and a clean matte finish. It's never stiff, never greasy, and never "did he use his dad's hair gel?" Plus it smells like cream soda. You're welcome. 4.25 oz.
