Seven Potions Hair Clay

Had so many issues with spots/rash heat spots suddenly appearing on my forehead and then realised it was caused by hair gels / wax. So decided to change to natural products, and tried a couple but not great for styling. So finally tried this product and it’s brilliant ! So easy and smooth to apply and easily allows beautiful styling. In fact works even well after re styling a few hours later. Only mistake I made was leaving the cap of one night and the wax became lumpy but was ok next day (like it reset). Beautiful smells and so impressed, will not be using any other products. My spots on forehead has completely gone. Can now sleep without washing out the wax.

I’ve purchased this a few times, and one of the things I really like about this clay is how easy it is to wash off your hands when you’ve styled your hair; a must for when you rushing to get ready for work. The scent is very light, and in my opinion quite nice, and the clay works well on very short and short hair (I’m sure it also works well on other lengths, but I only ever have my hair very short or short). With Seven Potions Clay, less really is more, and as a result, you will find that it lasts a long time. Additionally, it’s made in the UK - less CO2 miles - and is vegan friendly; if you happen to follow a vegan diet / lifestyle. Overall a great product that keeps your hair styled and in place all day. If you found this review helpful, I would really appreciate a like / thumbs up - it helps me to develop my reviewing technique so I can keep to the point and cover, what I believe, is the most useful info. Thank you.

After years of trying expensive med/strong hold wax and even more expensive shamppoos to wash it out so glad i found Seven Potions, easy to use,easy to wash resedue off hands and easy to restyle during the day....not the cheapest but cheap compared to other top brands

This product provides a good hold without feeling greasy or clumpy, as long as you warm it between your hands before applying. I particularly like that I can brush through my hair afterwards for a more natural finish. I’ve been on the lookout for hair products free from harmful ingredients, and this is the only styling clay I’ve come across that’s free from phenoxyethanol and other nasties. The premium packaging and the fact that it’s made in the UK are added bonuses. Highly recommended for anyone who values natural hair styling.

Smells nice and holds hair well. Nothing wrong with it at all but also nothing special meaning I found it hard to justify the price. I would have a hard time telling the difference between this and a £3 pot from Savers

Best hair product I have used and phenomenal customer service! Previous orders have had no issues. But on a recent order I had a bad batch arrive that was grainy like some of the other reviews. I contacted the seller and they was amazing at sorting out the issue and it was all rectified. 100% recommend

Really good product! I don’t usually write reviews but I’m hoping this helps the person out there looking for a specific thing like I was. I’ve been trying to find a cruelty free hair product that matches shockwaves Matt clay which I’ve used since 2006! After many unsuccessful products for different reasons... this is the one. Dare I say it’s actually better. Great texture, hold and feel. Only niggle is the smell. It’s not that it’s a bad smell, it’s just not a pleasant smell for hair to be. Like a mix between a candle shop and a cleaning product. Really happy with it. if you’re in my situation struggling to decide whether to splash out on it or not... I’d recommend do it.

I have used this product before, and have been happy. So much so, that I re-ordered on several previous occasions. However, like others, with my most recent order, the clay was gritty and I knew that there was something instantly wrong. I’m not sure if this is a faulty batch.

I have terribly sensitive skin including my scalp. This includes ezcema. I often get compliments on my thick wavy/curly hair. Some days however, my hair is less flattering. Adding product makes it consistently look great. I'm not a fan of gel so I've opted to try hair clay (as the slick, glossy look of pomade does not appeal to me) I've tried nearly a dozen brands by now... One particular brand had the worst and strongest scent that I actually received multiple complaints in a single day (never experienced that before about anything). But most irritated my scalp; one even flared up my eczema on my face (yes, my face broke out, it was REALLY bad). After awhile, I gave up. But after I healed up and some time had passed, I began looking again for a quality product that was gentle on skin. Seven Potions IS that product! NO irritation on my scalp AT ALL. It is definitely a clay and will not have that slick, glossy pomade look (which some "clays" that I've tried had which is misleadingly and not my preference). It is indeed matte but without being super matte like other brands which made my hair look dry & lifeless. Fortunately, it is just the right amount of matte; a natural look. Seven Potions applies moderately easy for a hair clay. Not too sticky like some other brands. It is unscented or at least a very light generic scent which I greatly prefer. It doesn't fight against my cologne when I do decide to wear any. Having too many scents mixing around is not good. (I just checked the product page to see if it was advertised as Unscent or not, but then noticed that other reviews mentioned a terrible scent. This is not my experience. Perhaps Seven Potions took note of these negative reviews and remedied the scent problem. I bought 2 of their hair clays so I can have 1 at my girlfriend's. I bought them a few weeks apart. Neither had a poor scent. It is pleasant and extremely light. I only smell it from the can and never on myself which is a selling point to me). I would not consider this a "high hold" though. Perhaps medium at best. Then again, I do not put more than a nickel size amount since I do not want to add too much weight to my hair or start looking greasy. The hold is natural as a hair clay should be. It won't fight up against wind (this isn't hair gel). And at the end of the day, the product seems to disintegrate while leaving the volume & curls in my hair, and smooth & soft too. Due to this, it is extremely easy to wash out considering most of the time, I don't feel its presence. I don't see myself using anything else moving forward.

En primera debo decir que no es un mal producto (ya casi termino con el), si utilizas una cantidad moderada te deja el cabello con efecto mate pero si utilizas mucho se puede llegar a sentir grasoso el cabello, un detalle que no me agrado para nada y es el motivo por el cual no volvería a comprarlo es que si lo utilizas en seco al momento de peinarte te jala demasiado el cabello, cada que lo utilizaba en seco me arrancaba varios cabellos la única manera de evitar esto es utilizarlo en cabello húmedo o bien humedeciendo el producto antes de aplicarlo pero eso altera el efecto que te da y no queda tan mate cómo utilizarlo en seco. Lo recomiendo para personas con cabello grueso y difícil de controlar, muchos mencionan el olor y para mi eso fue un detalle insignificante, tendrías que ser una persona muy sensible a olores para que te llegue a molestar. En general bien pero optaré por buscar otra opción.

Erg soepel in te brengen zonder dat je haartjes lostrekt. Heeft een best sterke hold, aan het eind van de dag begint het een beetje te zakken. Maar omdat het mooi zacht blijft kun je tussendoor je kapsel weer in model brengen. Er is slechts weinig nodig om mijn dunne (maar op sommige plaatsen stugge haar) in model te houden, en het geeft vrijwel geen extra glans. Qua geur vind ik het een subtiele vanille-achtige geur. Ik lees dat sommigen het overheersend vinden, of dat het een oma geur zou zijn. Ik herken dat totaal niet en vind het een subtiele en onopvallende geur. Ook geeft het geen plakkerig of vet gevoel aan het haar, en het is makkelijk uit te wassen. Na een paar dagen testen vind ik het beter dan de Arcadian Clay Pomade. Die is veel stroever bij het aanbrengen en na het opdrogen, terwijl de hold minder is.

Très content de mon produit

Great product. Provides good hold and rinses out easily. The scent, though not quite to my taste, isn’t really a deal breaker, as I find it isn’t unpleasant on its own and blends well enough with most of the colognes I use, at least IMO. The other reviews are correct in that it isn’t a true hair clay but more of a paste. However it behaves very similarly once applied. It has plenty of hold and provides a very natural, ‘no product’ look. The hold seems to be linked to the pastes high moisture content, as it begins to wane as the product dries, which for me and my medium length coarse hair is usually sometime in the afternoon. It applies well to dry hair though, so a quick restyling isn’t really a big deal. The big selling point for me however has been the absolutely clean ingredient list. People tend to forget that every aspect of their lives is built on the premise of their health; if I’m gonna apply a product to my body every single day for the foreseeable future, I want to be sure that it isn’t undermining my health in some way. This one lives up to that standard and still manages to keep up with the more chemical heavy competitors on the market, so I don’t mind one or two minor shortcomings. It does what it’s meant to do and does it well, without resorting to chemicals that have to be carefully dosed down in animal tests until they no longer trigger symptoms, just one more reason to look for the cruelty free label, and a BIG reason to give this product a try. Edit: the scent itself is very similar to beeswax and honey: warm, sweet, and somewhat musky.
