Most Helpful Positive Review Prefer over Platinum Texturizing Taffy Finding the right product for your hair can be painful. Since finding this product I have been able to cut back on what I use and how. The Texturizing Taffy left my hair heavy and greasy looking even with a small amount. Mousse, gels, blowout creams, putty, I just couldn't get a consistent look. I have fine and thin hair that I wear in a pixie cut. I use this product after blow-drying hair to style. Doesn't take much. Hair looks shinny and healthy and not weighed down. Just light hairspray after to set and I'm done. Love this product and love the results!
Most Helpful Critical Review Too greasy & No Hold At All I have greying thick short cut (almost a pixie cut) & wanted to lift pieces at crown - this did NOTHING but weigh my hair down. I used very little paste on clean dry hair. I tried applying a little & then blow drying, no difference.

Hope from St. Louis
I have tried several control paste products by different brands. I have been using a product that cost twice as much as this one. My hair dresser used this on me and I loved the smell, so I tried it and I love it....even more than the expensive product I had been using. I love the smell and it provides just the right amount of hold for my thick, short hair.
Product had deteriorated due to age 1

No I won't buy again 2

Used several times thinking it would get better. NOPE
Perfect for me 5
Lauren from Chicago, IL
i bought this to slick my baby hairs/part flyaways down for cute low buns, ponies, and claw clip styles. works perfectly, flexible hold is true its not crunchy at all and my hair still feels like hair, but these little baby hairs are def NOT moving. it smells incredible (not sure why people are saying it smells bad, it literally smells like sweet strawberries), and NO FLAKES which has been such a struggle for me to find. overall 10/10
My new favorite Kenra product!! 5
LisaB from Illinois
I had a really hard time finding a replacement for Short Sexy Hair Quick Change which worked perfectly for my hair but this is my new favorite product! It works better than Kenra Texturing Taffy, Whipped Taffy, Matte Texture Putty, or Working Wax for me.
Smells Great! 4
Sandy from Texas
A little goes a long way . Leaves my hair shiny and controlled smelling great.
Smells awful! 1
Tallgal from Ohio
Even if this paste worked in my hair I would never use it due to the horrible smell. It smells like formaldehyde! And the consistency was not what I expected. Thought it would be a paste but was more of a gel. Awful product!
Not much shine and makes my hair feel sticky 2
Kat from NE Florida
I bought this in the hopes it would be like Rusk Pro Polish03 Gloss Wax that has been discontinued. It is not even close.
Too sticky and the shimmer is just not there.
Great texture, smells gross 2
Preacher's Wife from State College
I see only one other comment about smell. The texture and workability are great - I have a very short cut. It's not gunky or greasy. A little bit goes a long way. Their other products smell great... Not sure why this one has to smell so gross. I'm disappointed bc it fits the bill in every other way.
I would not buy this product again. 1
Pam from IN
I have tried to use this to see if I could get used to the smell. It smells as bad now as the first day I tried it.
I would buy this again and again 5

Can't live without 5
Shela from Florence, SC
Been using for YEARS! Can't do without!!!
This product is more greasy than tacky. Not a fan at all. 2
Louise from Billings
I have short thick coarse hair and this product didn't work at all.
Love this for my super short hair 5
Amy from Eastern Washington
I have very short hair and like products that help with the spiky look. This product gives my hair a nice glossy look without feeling heavy and waxy.
What changed? 3
Momma juls from Blacklick ohio
My first jar a couple months back was like the Taffy......I've gotten 2 more and both no fiberous Taffy just thick gelatin feel. What happened? Formula changed ? Stylist used Taffy last time I had a pixie cut and it definitely is fiberous and smells great but didn't have the same hold as this.

Love this product. 5
N/a from Atlantic, Iowa
I love all Kenra products. This one was in a travel set I bought with shampoo & conditioner. I keep coming back for more. Easy to use, lightweight - don't even notice it's in your hair other than the control & shine.
My go to repeatedly! 5
