This is easily the worst styling product I have ever used. I have fine, wavy hair and I used the paste version and it was terrible. I tried it on damp, wet, and dry hair and I always got the same...

I tried the paste this summer, and I thought it was okay. I wasn't crazy about the stickiness it left behind. I tried using it on wet hair, damp hair, and dry hair, and it was sticky every time. ...

I bought this spray as a replacement for my John Freida Ocean Waves, but I was really disappointed. This was really sticky and tacky, while Ocean Waves was more oily. Also, Ocean Waves smelled...

This review is for the paste. It comes in a small jar, is fairly cheap, has a light paste, almost cream consistency, and sort of smells like fruity playdoh, but not in a good way. To me, this is a...

I am reviewing the paste version of this. I was looking for an inexpensive alternative to Peter Coppola's Styling Mudd, and this does a pretty good job. It creates a piecey/greasy look which is...

I bought this to get beachy hair but I ended up using it for Halloween. I was a witch and I wanted my hair to look piecy and gross. This worked perfectly. It made my hair crispy and I couldn't...

This product was disgusting. It didn't hold for a long time and left my hair with a greasy, plasticky feel. This is one instance where a more expensive product might function better after all.

This may well be the most useless styling product I've ever used in my life. I have no idea what it does, but it doesn't make my hair even a little bit piecey. I bought the Surf paste at the same...

I find this very dulling and somewhat drying to the hair. Not to mention sticky. I have shoulder length hair and I wanted to sort of twist and tousel and make it beachy. Girls, it's easier to just...

For me, this product is second only to the much more expensive Aveda Defining Whip. I have super-short hair, and Surf Hair is perfect for achieving the messy "I always wake up looking fabulous"...
