Title: Hair Wax Stick Post by: kevie192 on June 12, 2009, 08:18:01 PM Hi all,
I've just been looking for a new hair product and remembered a product I used to use by Toni and Guy called X-Wax. It was in a large twist-up tube and was really good, and I remember Tigi also doing a version. So, I got googling and was amazed to see the list of ingredients: One of them was: Castor seed oil, hydrogenated castor oil, beeswax, rhus succedanea fruit wax, candelilla wax, sorbitan stearate, bht, fragrance, benzyl benzoate, linalool. The other is: petrolatum, paraffin, kaolin, cera alba(beeswax), zea mays(corn)starch,parfum(fragrance), butylphenyl methylproprional, hydroxymethyl, pentylcyclohexencarboxaldehyde, hydroxycitronellal, linalool, dipropylene glycol, citronellol. So, the question is, is anyone prepared to make some up for me? It costs £8.80 in Boots so if you could do it for less than that it would be excellent. I know that it's a popular product and would be an excellent addition to any soapers range! Kevin x Title: Re: Hair Wax Stick Post by: kevie192 on June 14, 2009, 09:58:39 AM Anyone?

Sarah, what is the product like? Is it very hard (so you could use it in a stick?) What sort of hold does it give? Wet look or dry? Tried to find it on your site but failed :( Thanks, Kevin x Title: Re: Hair Wax Stick Post by: sarahlf on June 14, 2009, 08:45:27 PM Kevin, the version I do isn't on the site as I've recently developed it for a customer. Hoping to add it at some stage though (or a similar version).
It's more of a pomade and gives a soft, dry look hold. It could be easily made into a harder stick version. What exactly are you looking for?
