American Crew Men's Hair Defining Paste (OLD VERSION), Medium Hold Hair Gel with Low Shine, 3 Oz (Pack of 1)

I have been using Defining Paste since high school and it seems like it gets cheaper and cheaper every time I go to buy more. Many times due to the recommendation of a barber or friend I have tried other brands as well as other types of Crew, my hair is a dynamic entity that can be tamed by no amount of product, each day a little different than the last. Monday pomade works best, Tuesday its Fiber, Wednesday... WHO KNOWS!? Day in and day out regardless of the venue or event I am attending Crew Defining Paste is my go to option. Regardless of where I travel in or out of the country you will not find me without a puck full of the Paste. While I still keep another brand on hand just to see if a challenger can dethrone the king, Defining Paste is the product I would recommend to anyone 10/10 times. Very easy to work into moist but not wet hair. Once it settles you can run your fingers through it all day without issue and it typically holds in place fairly well. This allows me the hairstyle that I am looking for which is clean, but not too flashy. Smell good too.

Great stuff if you ride and wear a motorcycle helmet, no frizz, easy to style back after helmet removal, no helmet hair!

A bit of context: I have what is more or less an undercut - pretty short on the sides (size 1 or under clipper usually) and a bit longer on top (1-1.5"). I usually cut my own hair or have a friend cut it for me so I'm not sure on specifics. This product is exactly as it claims - low shine, medium hold. It's very workable even throughout the day which I appreciate a lot. Doesn't make my hair look greasy, and it feels as good as you can hope hair with product in it will feel. The smell is incredible, too! I haven't used it for awhile as I've since adopted nopoo and had no need for it, but whenever I do end up washing my hair I'll usually use this for about a week after until the oils in my hair build back up. I almost miss having my hair smell so wonderfully. Great product, will absolutely use and recommend to all friends.

American Crew defining paste is my personal favorite hair style product. I have thick, straight hair and since I am not patient enough to grow it out, am stuck with short hair that likes to stand straight up. This stuff is strong enough to hold it in place when I faux hawk it up or to keep it laying down when need be, but it never feels heavy and doesn't dry or harden up much. I think that is due to the beeswax that they use, which gives a more natural look. Also with the beeswax I feel like it washes out in the shower much easier. I have tried other "wax" products but find that a lot of them use heavy oils, which refuse to wash out despite repeated shampooings. Oh and also, I feel like i don't have to use much of the product to do my hair, so it lasts longer than any other product I have ever bought. All in all, I would definitely recommend at least trying it if you need a strong hold and want a natural look, that won't take a week to get out of your hair!

My fiancé has been using this product for nearly a decade now and he swears by it. Here’s why: PROS: - Not Greasy or “Wet” looking - Not Tacky or Sticky - Perfectly texturized to shape and move hair as desired without it drying up or witholding its shape. - ALSO….The baby otters LOVED playing with his hair haha so that’s a PLUS! CONS: - A little pricier depending on what you’re used to, but it is worth it - Wish they made more sizes because this product is AMAZING!

I don't like the current pricing, but the product is very good.

Been using this product for a few years. As a guy who doesn't like to spend more than 26 seconds on his hair each morning, this product is perfect. A small portion rubbed into the tips of my fingers and applied to my hair with a little bit of arranging my hair just so is all it takes to set me up for the day!

Got it and it was apparently old. I have been using this for years and this one had a skin on it- like pudding. Brushed my finger to take some and none came out. Returned. I think I will be going to ulta for my defining paste

Buen producto. Apenas sin brillo (efecto natural sin que parezca un pelo mate deshidratado) que mantiene el pelo sin engrasar. Fijación media baja, pero el resultado es muy natural.

Habe die Paste jetzt schon länger im Einsatz und bin echt zufrieden. Wer keinen Bock auf diesen steinharten Beton-Look hat, ist hier genau richtig. Das Zeug gibt ordentlich Struktur und mittleren Halt, aber die Haare bleiben den ganzen Tag über flexibel. Man kann also auch mittags mal locker durch die Haare gehen und alles sitzt danach immer noch gut. Es glänzt auch fast gar nicht – die Haare sehen einfach ganz normal und gepflegt aus, nicht fettig oder nass. Lässt sich super einfach in den Händen verreiben, klumpt nicht und geht abends beim Duschen ohne Probleme direkt wieder raus. Riecht außerdem gewohnt gut nach American Crew. Für mich das perfekte Produkt für den Alltag. Kaufe ich definitiv wieder!

Parfait, j'ai perso des cheveux courts, rapide, et qui ont tendance à prendre beaucoup de volume. Enfin une cire qui me permet de les mettre en place sans prise de tête 😅

ワセリンの香りが悪いから使えない。
