Consistency

Powder. Fairly sticky.

How To Use Slick Gorilla

Apply directly into the hair; or – as I prefer – sprinkle onto your hands and distribute through your hair, root to tip.

Use the product to add texture to casual styles.

How Much To Use?

A little goes a long way! Only sprinkle a tiny bit. You can add more if needed.

Finish

A slight tackiness to hold the hair. Matte/dull finish. Looks texturised.

Hold

Can work with the hair all day. Doesn’t dry hard or look greasy.

Washability

Not great. Really coats the hair. Need to use shampoo.

Slick Gorilla | Who Is It For?

Best for short hair to add texture and light movement. Not so effective in longer hairstyles.
