ORIBEFiber Groom Elastic Texture Paste, 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)

Excellent product. Was out of stock for a bit, was really worried but back and great for texturizing hair.

As a man with fairly thick, wavy hair cut to around 1-2 inches on top, my hair product of choice has usually been some kind of flexible paste/wax with a matte-to-natural shine. I had previously been a user of Sumotech when my stylist recommended this product. This is probably the most similar product I've found to Sumotech, with the added benefits of slightly more flexibility and shine. It gives my hair some lift and volume without weighing it down or looking slick. The hold isn't quite as strong as Sumotech's is, so I wouldn't use this for overly radical or spiky hairstyles, but if you're looking for a fairly natural, textured hold, this is a great alternative. The biggest downside, of course, is the price, but this is priced competitively to alternatives such as Sumotech or Aveda Molding Clay. I found one jar lasted about 4 months, so overall the price isn't quite as bad as it first seems. As a final note, I should mention that the scent is fantastic. It's a very light, clean, neutral scent that isn't at all overpowering.

This is great for sleek buns. It is easy to apply , it smells great and it is not stiff. It also allows me to use multiple days without washing my hair, so it extends my wash. My hair is frizzy it won’t make it helmet shiny or stiff but does a great job holding up.

Work good on my edges

I'm an Oribe junkie (fangirl? obsessee?), and recently chopped my hair off (from waist-length to chin-length).All of a sudden my Hair Product Requirements completely changed. Rather than aiming for sleek, I want volume. Rather than just shiny, I want texture and lift and..."oomph."This Fiber Groom stuff is seriously space-aged hair goop. You dip into the tub with your finger, and there really are "fibers" (strings!) that sort of stretch across your fingers.I use as instructed -- emulsify it between my palms quite a bit, then work it through my hair (focusing mostly on the ends, in my case). It's a nice, waxy product that gives some separation, a bit of hold, some dimension, some texture, some shine -- and a little tiny bit goes a long way.I was surprised by how small the tub is, but when I realized a dime-sized amount takes care of my whole head, it'll last a while.I wish the scent was the usual Oribe-strong (like the texturizing spray), but it still smells nice.Overall -- it does what it says it will do, and it's fun (like a science project!) when you dig it out of the container.(also -- I purchased this from seller BlueMercury and, with expedited shipping, it arrived in ONE day -- faster than promised. Three cheers there).

My hair is thinning but I don't want to admit it. My hairdresser used this on me a few months ago and it's now my staple product.It is very light, and a little goes a long way. It has very good hold, and dries quickly when applied to dry hair. It's very easy to style and hair is "manageable" all day. Hair looks as if it is naturally thick and healthy.I like that it doesn't look as if you've used product at all. I am now growing my hair again for the first time in about ten years thanks to being able to style it exactly how I want to with this product!

The company has obviously spent a lot of time researching how to control hair. I've never seen a product like this. It's pretty firm, but not waxy. As you pull your finger away from the product, there are these little strands of product, almost like glue, it's unique. You don't need much of it at all, I use just what I can dab onto my index finger. I then spread it all over my hands and then "fluff" my hair with my hands. You can tell which hair has the product and which doesn't, so you just keep fluffing until its spread evenly and you've gotten as much off your hands as you can. Then you can do like anything with your hair. I have been looking for a product to give my hair volume and this does the trick. It's a keeper!

This product is terrible. It is incredibly viscous in that it is very hard to spread evenly across your hair; it mushes up in local spots and leaves the rest of your hair frizzy. If you do manage to get enough in so that most of your hair has the product in, it’s way too much. I want a refund ASAP. This is the worst Oribe product I’ve ever purchased.
