Murray's Black Beeswax, 3.5 oz

I bought this stuff in place of a moustache wax which is VERY expensive. It does the job quite well and I am very pleased with the results! Being of a multiracial stock (Black, Irish, and American Indian) with Negro hair type, I was well aware of Murray's products, having used the regular pomade ONCE in the past when I had a long Afro. Black Murray's Beeswax is not as thick as the regular Murray's that I once swore never to use again on my head. Murray's is NOT formulated for long hair, Afro's or otherwise! Especially straight Caucasian hair types! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK! My first experience with Murray's pomade was a bad one. The pomade in the orange can is really a soft wax and when I massaged it through my Afro which was difficult to do from the start, it matted my hair down and was VERY difficult spread, and to remove even after 3 or 4 'Dawn' degreasing's! Wax does NOT wash out very easily! Murray's is really best for short, straightened Negro hair which is almost impossible to hold down if its been "fried, dyed, and laid to the side." Laughing, and grinning as I applied my new black Murray's Beeswax to my newly grown grayish handlebar moustache (delighted with the results), I decided to try it on my prematurely gray head. Having lost the Afro long ago, and now sporting a tennis ball fuzz cut I applied a few dabs at a time to my temples, and was shocked! This stuff is fantastic for blending away the gray! I applied another large gob just enough to evenly cover my scalp, rubbed it between my hands to melt it, and massaged it through, and guess what? I look 20 years younger!! OK, now for the bad part. Its not quite as pleasant smelling as the regular Murray's. It has a strong waxy scent, similar to axle grease, or very hot wax. It could be mixed with a more fragrant hair grease to cut the scent, but the waxy smell fades, and having auto mechanic experience, its not very hard for me to get used to the scent on my upper lip. I'd probably wipe it off if I need to kiss. In conclusion, it is a great product for what I use it for and I will buy more!

one of the best wax you bought does not bleach hair and does not itch skin hair

Love this stuff!!! Temporary fix to cover some graying hair while wearing a ponytail updo. Stays put with the help of Got2B hairspray.

Good stuff, It’s beeswax! Wax feel and finish so a little goes a long way depending on your choice of style. I only use it for braids especially to grip the edges. For me, I find it heavy and it does leave build up so I wash frequently when used especially in between wig changes.

Yes amazing non mess goes on perfectly blends in my hair perfectly even helps with the grey hair. Melts right into the hair

Personally I liked it and the so called smell was very minimum to me. I’ve tried the original Murray's in the past so I knew that this version was going to be a very strong product, but it was also pliable to my hair (Mexican American Black Hair). A little does do quite the job and depending on what style you are going for (Michael Corleone in my case) this will do the job. Be sure to have your hair damp like out of the shower dry and your hands bone dry. Do the Mr. Miyagi one time hand clap and rub in your hands until it is spread thin in your hands and apply front to back with steady downward pressure styling as necessary. Also have a small dark wash cloth rung out wet to help remove any pomade from your hands washing them afterwards. I sometimes use that same rung out wet cloth on my scalp front to back when it begins to dry to its natural pomade state to style or restyle in the moment. The finished style for me (Mexican American Black Hair) was: in between a matte and shiny finish that looks amazing. It was a minimum sticky for me when done and easy to restyle when I just felt like it. If you don’t have black or dark brown hair this product is probably not for you. This product held all day even in the hot Texas summer we just went through and even as I sweated it never moved. As for washing out it depends on your shampoo it may take more than one washing, but well worth the use.

I purchased this and 2 other Murray's products, the Natural Beeswax and the Hair Dressing Pomeade, to see which one would work best for controlling my mountain man beard. Received all 3 on the same day and was excited to try them out and get my answer. The answer is NOT THIS ONE. The other two smell pleasant, with the pomeade smelling the best. This one smells like a joke product or a mistake. I thought I might have been overreacting and really wanted to see how the black looked in my beard, so I put just a tiny amount in my hand and began to style. I immediately wished I had not, for although it looked alright, my uncontrollable gagging became had given me cramps and double vision. Needless to say, I immediately washed it out, hoped my wife would not smell any residue and wonder why I was rolling in dog poo, and threw the evil thing out. Skip this product and find another alternative if you have to have the black. Otherwise use the Murray's Pomeade.

This beeswax is pretty good ...just that u have to use a little bit .it will.creqte a mess if u don't know what you are doing .
