This versatile styling paste blends conditioning botanicals with texture‑enhancing polymers to shape, define, and hold short to medium hairstyles without stiffness.

Designed by a collective of professional stylists, the paste offers workable control for everyday styling and creative looks.

How firm is the hold and can I rework my hair during the day?

The Control Flexible Paste provides a strong yet malleable hold that stays supportive without locking hair into a rigid shape. You can build layers of product for extra control or use a small amount to maintain a softer, tousled look. Reworking with fingers or a comb is easy because the paste remains flexible after application.

• Strong, buildable hold that stays pliable
• Allows fingertip restyling throughout the day
• Apply small amounts incrementally to increase hold

Will this paste make my hair look greasy or weighed down?

No — the formula is lightweight and finishes with a semi‑matte, natural appearance that avoids shine or greasiness. It texturizes and defines strands without flattening volume, so hair keeps movement and shape. Ideal for styles where a lived‑in, controlled look is preferred over a glossy, polished finish.

• Semi‑matte to satin finish, not oily
• Lightweight texture preserves volume and movement
• Perfect for matte, textured, or piecey styles

What hair types and styles work best with this product?

Control Flexible Paste suits a wide range of hair textures and is especially effective on short to medium lengths. It’s great for creating textured crops, pompadours with natural finish, separated layers, and casual bedhead styles. Use a dime‑to‑nickel sized amount for fine hair and a larger pea‑to‑dime portion for thicker hair.

• Works on fine, medium, and thick hair
• Best for short to mid‑length cuts and layered styles
• Buildable dosing for different hair densities

What key ingredients contribute to hair health and feel?

The paste combines botanical extracts that help condition and soften hair while providing styling performance. Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract and Passion Flower Extract support moisture balance and manageability, while Mango Fruit Extract and Ginger Root Extract supply vitamins and antioxidants that improve softness and shine. The overall formulation aims to style without stripping or stiffening the hair.

• Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract for conditioning and comfort
• Passion Flower Extract to help maintain hair manageability
• Mango Fruit and Ginger extracts for softness, vitamins, and antioxidant support
