Lock Stock & Barrel Ruck Matte Putty 100 g — Men’s Matte Texture Putty, Firm Flexible Hold

Ruck Matte Putty is a pliable styling putty that delivers a firm, matte finish for textured, undone hairstyles while remaining easy to wash out.

Designed by Lock Stock & Barrel, this 100 g jar provides controllable hold and malleability for short to medium men's cuts. Its dry, choppy texture creates volume and definition without shine, making it ideal for messy looks or piecey separation. Formulated with a blend of waxes, polymers and clay, the putty balances structure and flexibility so you can restyle throughout the day.

How does Ruck Matte Putty create matte texture without stiffness?

The formula combines binding polymers and absorbent kaolin clay to reduce shine and add grit, while waxes keep strands separated rather than glued together. It sets to a firm hold (4/5) but remains workable, so hair keeps movement instead of a crunchy finish.

• Key texturizers: kaolin clay for matte appearance and natural grip.
• Hold agents: PVP/VA copolymer and waxes for lasting shape.
• Flexible feel: lanolin and conditioning alcohols prevent over-dryness.

When and how should I apply the putty for best results?

Rub a small amount between fingers until softened, then work through damp or dry hair focusing on roots for lift or mid-lengths and ends for separation. Start with a pea-sized amount and build; apply to damp hair for softer definition or to dry hair for stronger texture and hold.

• Use on damp hair for subtle volume and a softer matte finish.
• Apply to dry hair for pronounced choppy texture and stronger hold.
• Add more product sparingly to avoid weighing down short styles.

Will Ruck Matte Putty wash out easily and suit sensitive preferences?

This putty rinses out with water and is formulated without parabens and phthalates. It carries Leaping Bunny certification and is vegetarian friendly, making it suitable for those avoiding certain animal testing practices and common preservative groups.

How much product comes in the jar and what styling scope does it cover?

The screw-top jar contains 100 g (3.53 oz), which is enough for many weeks of daily styling depending on hair length and amount used. It’s tailored for shorter cuts that benefit from texture, but can also be used sparingly on medium lengths to emphasize layers and separation.

• Size: 100 g jar with screw-top lid for easy access and travel convenience.
• Best for short to medium styles seeking matte, piecey definition.
• Hold factor: 4/5—strong yet reworkable throughout the day.

Who is this for: Ruck Matte Putty suits men wanting a modern, low-shine finish with strong structure and the ability to rework hair during the day. It’s a solid choice for anyone aiming for messy, textured looks—from short crops and fades to layered mid-length styles—who also prefers vegetarian-friendly, cruelty-free personal care options.
