Hanz de Fuko Quicksand – Premium Men’s Hair Styling Wax & Dry Shampoo Combo – High Hold, Ultra Matte Finish – Certified Organic Ingredients, 56g

Hanz de Fuko Quicksand definitely feels like a premium product. The texture is dense and smooth, lacking the wet, heavy feel that often comes with clays or putties, and the added dry shampoo feature means your hair feels far less greasy than with similar products. That said, this isn’t a budget-friendly option, so you’ll need to decide if the price is worth it for you. It’s not the quickest styling product – if you’re after something easy to throw in and go, this might not be ideal. But if you want a firm hold, less shine, and that refreshing dry-shampoo effect, Quicksand is worth a look.

Smell is fine, strange product definitely has some hold. Doesn’t make your hair too greasy but not as much hold as I personally would like, I would say that it’s a bit on the pricey side for what it does.

Really like it. Struggle to find products that are malleable with a strong hold, this is pretty good. Better for a flowing look that really strong hold. I have medium hair, relatively straight

Brilliant. Will buy more

I bought this as an alternative to claymation as I figured something with slightly less hold would be better for my hair given claymotion is on the strong side for me. As you can tell from the title, this is RUBBISH. It has the feel and hold of a weak Superdrug own brand putty. It feels like sand mixed with watery pva glue. Annoyingly I can’t return it and I have no real use for it. It doesn’t even work well in a mix with claymotion, it just makes my hair feel slimey. Avoid at all costs, you have been warned. I paid more attention to the positive reviews in some weird confirmation bias mindset, ignoring the plethora of negative reviews! My mistake! I wish I had been more wise.

It's a decent product, but unfortunately it dries out my hair way too much. Additionally, as another reviewer commented, it does not have the most pleasant smell and possesses a 'mud-like' smell. Not a deal breaker but something to take into account before buying this product. Too expensive for what it offers. Overall, it's something which I would use once in a while, rather than on a regular basis.

My hair: fine, straight, short-medium length, black. My style: Grade 3-5 on the sides and back. Varying lengths at the top (4-12 inches). Standing up when short. Swept back style when longer. Hanz de Fuko (Quicksand) Pros: - emulsifies quickly in the hands and applies to hair easily. Not tacky/sticky. - nice matte effect. Not greasy/shiny at all. - Gives strong hold with a 'natural' look. - I only need a small amount (half a fingernail sized) to get a good hold. - Applies well on towel-dried or dry hair. I hair-dry my hair then apply - this seems to give best styling effect. - Lasts most of the day (does lose hold a little with longer hair however). - Mould-able hair - can change/readjust style easily during the day without necessarily applying more product. - Washes out easily, no residue. I don't feel I need to wash it out at the end of the day. Cons: - Cost. Not much in each pot (expensive per gram compared to other products). However (my opinion) worth the expense. - Gives hair a "sandy" texture (although some consider this a plus point?) - works well with short hair but not much else. - No real scent (smells like mud). Not unpleasant however. Overall, I think this product is great. I have purchased HDF quicksand 4 times in the last 4 years. It is my favourite amongst the HDF range and one of my favourites overall.

Easy to apply and re-shape. Non sticky or greasy, does great job of a matt finish with reasonable hold and volume. If you want more hold, then Claymation is better. Good to know natural and organic, so good for your hair too!

Doesn’t meet expectations

Hanz de Fuko's Quicksand ist bislang das beste Wax, dass ich benutzt habe. Es fühlt sich erstens super in den Haaren an, zweitens riecht es angenehm, und hat einen starken Halt! Absolute Kaufempfehlung! Zuvor benutzte ich Asya Wax, und ich kann definitiv sagen, dass so leicht kein Produkt qualitativ mit Fuko mithalten kann.

If there is any product that holds your hair in place, easy to remove, organic and works fabulously well on thin hairs, it's hanz de fuko quicksand. Amazing product

Good product

Non è la classica cera per capelli, ma bensì un'argilla che permette di ottenere un effetto estremamente dry (secco) e dare tantissimo volume all'acconciatura senza ungere i capelli; sicuramente uno dei migliori prodotti di questo tipo in commercio, particolarmente adatto per capelli fini
