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!

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.

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

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

Good

It does smell like crayons but the smell isn't unbearable. It has an odor just like "Jam" and even the Murray's Beewax (without the black coloring) stunk too. I actually like it and it helps keep your hair in its place, but this is NOT a miracle worker. You still have to use a good brush, a baby tooth brush to really get those edges down ladies. I do like this better over the "Got 2 be glue" product, but too much of either will work against you (causing you to look pastier and reactivate that curl pattern you were trying to straightened out). Great find but also available at Walmart, Sallys, Walgreens in more "urban" areas.

I didn't use it I bought it good texture I didn't use it to lay my hair edges down

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