unfortunately this arrived old and cracked instead of soft.

Great product but scent isn't pleasing.
This is the best hair product I've used in a long time. It's light and doesn't weigh down my hair. The scent isn't pleasing but the look I get from using the produce it amazing.

Smells great
My other half uses putty to keep his hair combed over so the thinning doesn’t show. But he doesn’t like to cement it down. This product worked for him. It smells great. It only takes a small amount for him to get his hair how he wants. It holds and lasts a whole work day. He is happy with it and loves the way it smells.

1000 points...
...for the scent. This has a great, what I can only describe as, "fresh" scent. For me, it is the kind of scent that MAKES me want to choose this styling putty over some of my others (and there are many). I would call it gender neutral. While the scent itself is great, the STRENGTH of the scent is what also impresses me. The Strength of scent is about a 3-4 on a scale of 10 -(being the strongest). It's there, it's nice, but after you put this in your hands and into your hair, it will go quietly to the background and not irritate you or interfere with an actual fragrance you may choose for your body. The texture is to me, more of a waxy than putty texture, but it is thick and substantial, NOT cream like. I put this into towel blotted hair, out of the shower. For me, with a shorter hair cut (about 2" on top, 3/4" on the sides), this gives me a medium, re-workable hold/control. In numbers, I would call this a 4-5 on a scale of 10 (being the strongest) as far as hold/strength. It is a matte finish and almost seems to make my medium brown hair a shade lighter looking. I hope this review has enabled you to make an informed purchase decision; if so, please hit the "helpful" button below; Thanks :-). I rarely give an overall 5 star rating.

Moderate hold that can be restyled. Best for shorter hair that isn't thick.
Scent: Very little, but pleasant. The scent reminds me a bit of peony, mixed with fresh linen. Hold: Moderate. If you want a pomade that will hold a style rock solid, this is not for you. This is a pomade designed for those who like to have a bit of life to their styled hair. It's also a great pomade for those who like to play with the style of their hair throughout the day. Hair type: Since this pomade has more of a moderate hold, it's going to be best for those with shorter hair, that isn't terribly thick. If you have relatively long hair and/or very thick hair, this pomade isn't going to work very well for you. How long does it last? My hair ranges from a guard 2-4, and I got around 6 weeks out of this container. Recommended 4 stars

Probably better for light hold and shorter hair
I just gave my son a haircut that looks really cute when it’s spiked in the front. I was just using some gel and mousse before but decided to try some styling putty. This is the first styling putty I have used in his hair. It smells wonderful. The scent is higher quality like something that would be used at the salon. It’s a fresh and very pleasant aroma that has the nicer boutique smell. The putty truly just takes a little bit to perform fabulously. I start with just a little and warm it in my hands. It works through the hair easily. It doesn’t leave any residue or stickiness in his hair. It gives him the spiky look on his bangs. Unfortunately, it’s doesn’t last. The gel and mousse can hold literally until he washes his hair. This stuff is flat within hours. I was so pleased with the scent and formula. Unfortunately, the hold power is great until it’s not which is a few hours. Perhaps this would do better for those hairs that just need to be kept in their place down and flatter against the head.

Seems like nice stuff, but not for me...
I have used a zillion different hair products (not because I'm particular, but because I'm cheap and use whatever is on sale, haha), so I grabbed this off Vine when I saw it. It seems like nice stuff - smells good, you get a decent amount, etc. I bet it would work well for thin or short hair that doesn't need a lot of hold. However, for me, it's not the best. I like to push up my hair a bit and give it some height/volume, so something like a thicker "fiber wax" or "clay" seems to work better. This doesn't have enough hold to it to really push around the hair, so it doesn't work the best for me. It might be worth a try for you, though, if this sounds like the type of product you are looking for!

Medium-light hold
Rounded plastic tub containing 2.5 ounces of hair styling putty. The product is a thickish off-white putty that thins and smooths out as you rub it into your fingers after which adheres to your strands easily and consistently. The putty is lightly scented with a pleasant sweet and soapy fragrance. Finished results are good offering a bit of extra control, lift and volume boost. The matte finish looks mostly natural and holds up well through the course of a day under mostly indoor conditions. Product of Germany.

great product for most hair types
I'm a professional hair stylist and use loads of different styling putties and waxes on my own hair, mostly to test out new brands that I can use with my clients or just for fun when my salon get's in new products. I have always really liked KMS as a brand since using them at hair school as it was one of the brands my college stocked regularly. When I was offered to test this one out I jumped on it as I hadn't used this particular putty before and as I say, I've generally been impressed with them in the past. This is quite a light wax type putty, it blends down in your hands very quickly and is easy to apply. This has a few benefits in that it's great for almost any hair type, not being too heavy for people with thinner hair, nor too claggy and bogging down for people with thicker hair. On the flip-side of that, it does mean that the hold is quite light, more on the medium side and those looking for the stiff, rock solid hold of something like a pomade or straight wax will want to look elsewhere. That said, I did find the hold to be reasonable and it didn't make my hair look or feel greasy. The scent is really light which I appreciate, just a fresh linen sort of smell and it doesn't overpower or linger round your head all day long. Honestly speaking, I feel like a lot of brands of putty are all very similar once you get to a certain level and it's down to the small details to set them apart really. This is great as a professional level product and I'd have no problem stocking this and recommending it to clients at all. The ingredients are good, well nourishing and will help you to protect your hair, especially in harsh winters. It washes out easily, the scent is good and pretty low-key and the price is about average, if not on the low-end for a pro product, so overall I have to say I'm really impressed again with KMS. I'll be keeping this to use on my own hair, though I will also keep a slightly stronger product on hand too, for those days when the wind is a bit much, as the hold with this one is, as mentioned, more on the medium side of things and will struggle in poorer weather. Excellent overall, though.

Good Quality
The KMS Conscious Style styling putty is great for adding style and texture to my hair. This styling putty is made from all natural ingredients and is free from silicone, sulphites and micro plastics which is a bonus for me knowing it is better for the environment The styling putty itself is like a creamy paste. It comes out the pot a little bit clay looking which looked a bit like it was going to be hard to use at first. Upon scooping some out of the jar I found that it is easy to apply, non-greasy, not at all sticky. The putty also distributes in my hair nicely with no visible residue. Using it was easy, I simply applied on towel dried hair to get a good control on my usual style but with a little definition. I used about time same sized amount as a 20p coin. The product itself smells a little weird but some “salon” products do have a strange odour sometimes. It’s not bad, it just smells a little unusual for my liking. The putty held my style in place all day and washed out easily too. It’s a good product that does work better than gel and is so much easier if you’re short on time in a morning. I like this product. It kept my hair looking fresh all day and I am happy to recommend.

Good for short term gel effect
Generally I prefer waxes and putties for styling my hair, gels often leave lots of residues on both your hair and your hands. This putty as they call it has a nice fragrance. It was a bit difficult to get it out of the tub initially, I had to dig my finger tips in to get it to come out. Once I had some putty on my hands I started to work it into my towel dried hair. It worked in easily and gave my hair a nice smooth feel, almost like a conditioner. Once my hair had dried the putty gave a nice style, not stiff or sticky like a gel, you just know that it's giving some hold. Don't expect it to allow you to style a mohican on your head because it won't. The fact that this product is free of many of the usual hair product ingredients makes it a good choice for those with an ethical angle to their product choices. Verdict: A nice product with good texture and fragrance but a bit on the pricey side for a hair wax/putty.

Great for short to medium length hair
I have medium length hair currently but in the process of growing it longer, I have to say that I don’t think this would work too well after a couple more weeks. It is great very nice smelling long lasting putting but it’s just starting to struggle to hold the weight of my hair. Please note I have very thick and heavy hair so if you have thin hair maybe it will be ok for you with slightly longer hair. You do not need to use much this stuff so spread out a fair amount, it also is very easy to work in and make it non visible. I have only dropped a star due to the nearly £20 price tag other than that it would have got 5 stars I hope this review has helped you with your purchase.

Premium styling product
This is a great styling putty if you have short to medium length hair, it has a good natural hold that lasts and is amazing for adding texture. A little goes a long way with this product and I don't need to use much on my hair to achieve and hold the textured style I want. One thing I love about this putty is that its quite matte when in my hair so it doesn't look like I've got a lot of product in and gives me a natural look which I prefer. The texture of the putty is thick but works up easily in my hands and applies easily to my hair. This putty is perfect for my short/medium wavy hair and highly recommend it.
