Quicksand

I’ve tried a lot of styling products, and Hanz de Fuko Quicksand stands out. It gives a very strong hold with a dry, matte finish — no greasy shine at all. It adds noticeable volume and texture, especially if you apply it to dry hair.

This is THE best mens hair product I have ever used. Not sticky, doesn’t make hairs clump together to look wet AND the style stays in place. My hair still looks great at the end of the work day … without feeling stiff. The scent is great too. This is the only product I’ve found that has dry shampoo added in. I think that’s the secret

I use a clay or paste daily. This brand has a great hold with the formula allowing for wet hair to dry properly in place without the “wet look”. Hold last all day very easily and allow allows for easy manipulation throughout the day for the look that you’re looking for. I would recommend this product very easily and love the fact that the scent is very very light. A little bit goes a very long way and a tub of this would last many many months maybe even a year. Gives your hair a slight grainy feel and it works very well. Works well with dyed hair.

Awesome product for thin fine hair. Doesn’t leave it stiff or sticky!

I’ve tried several of their products and the quick sand works best for my thinning hair.

I have used the Aveda men's grooming clay for years and recently moved to Highland because of some ads that said it was awesome. Turns out that that I was missing with Aveda was longevity. The Aveda product simply disappeared when I got hot, or it was very humid, or it rained a little. Basically any moisture would make it simply disappear. I wanted something with better hold, and I didn't know until I tried something else. However, the Highland glacial clay is the polar opposite. It is made of wax and it is very sticky. Not only does it stay on your hair, but you have to rub it off your hands with a towel because soap and water have no effect on it. Also, I would pull out my hair when putting it on. Once I put it on my hair, my hair was flat and that was the way it stayed. It was simply too much. I was staring right down on the Goldilocks problem, so I did what everyone does in 2024, I conducted an online search, developed a list of candidates, and read reviews. I was stumped with several products, so I decided to buy the most popular one--Quicksand. This stuff is just right. It goes on pretty easily without pulling my hair out. Like Highland, you have to warm it up in your hands, but this is more clay and less wax. It lasts all day no matter the weather. It does not look slick, shiny, or greasy. Like the name implies, it leaves your hair dry looking. I put it on when my hair is barely damp. It makes my already thin hair a little flat at first. But over the morning, my hair rises to the desired look. Unlike Aveda or Highland, if the wind blows my hair, for example, I can run my hand through my hair without destroying the hold or the look. Sometimes when i first get up in the morning, my hair is like Doc Brown from Back to the Future, but all I have to do is push it back down and I'm good until I shower and start all over again. I don’t know what the "dry shampoo" thing is about, and I almost did not buy it because that was in the title. I would recommend that you give this a shot unless you want the slick or shiny look. See if you agree.

I read several reviews and this hair clay was highly recommended, so I decided to try it because my old clay was discontinued. It says "high hold". It is definitely not what I would consider "high hold". Probably "medium hold", as it can still stay fairly styled if I use a decent amount, but I frequently have to run my hands through my hair throughout the day to re-shape, and then use more of the wax. And if your hair hasn't been thoroughly dried (like if it has any moisture in it AT ALL), forget about this clay having any hold. Also, in the product pictures, this is supposed to be an off-white/sandy color. Mine is like yellow-brown with a greenish tint, I'll include a picture. If you're wanting a clay that you don't have to re-apply and re-shape a few times a day, this isn't the one for you. And the fact that I have to re-apply it a few times a day uses so much of the clay, and it's already an expensive/small jar. Even using a lot does not go a long way... The texture is ok, it's not globby, doesn't clump hairs together. Has a nice matte finish. It says "beachy texture", I would say it has a slightly "grainy-ish" feeling, but not super noticeable, it feels pretty dry and thin (I'm not sure how you would phrase this?).

I really love the hold and feel of this product. I have hair that quickly becomes oily and the dry shampoo in this product does wonders at battling the oiliness. This product has a very light - almost non-existent - hold to it, and if my hair isn't already in the shape I want it to be after blow-drying, this product isn't going to work wonders to get my hair shaped a different way. Don't expect this product to lay down your troublesome hairs that stick out. The downside to this product is that it is just absolutely awful to wash out. As soon as I get in the shower and wet my hair, my hair feels like damaged crap. It typically can take me shampooing my hair 2 or 3 times in the same shower to get this product completely out of my hair, and if I don't use conditioner after then my hair feels incredibly damaged. So the pros, if you have oily hair, this will prevent that from happening nearly all day long. But it's difficult to wash out and can leave your hair feeling extremely damaged after showering.

Doesn’t meet expectations

Hanz de Fuko Quicksand definitely feels like a premium product. The texture is dense and smooth, lacking the wet, heavy feel that often comes with clays or putties, and the added dry shampoo feature means your hair feels far less greasy than with similar products. That said, this isn’t a budget-friendly option, so you’ll need to decide if the price is worth it for you. It’s not the quickest styling product – if you’re after something easy to throw in and go, this might not be ideal. But if you want a firm hold, less shine, and that refreshing dry-shampoo effect, Quicksand is worth a look.

If there is any product that holds your hair in place, easy to remove, organic and works fabulously well on thin hairs, it's hanz de fuko quicksand. Amazing product

Good product

Non è la classica cera per capelli, ma bensì un'argilla che permette di ottenere un effetto estremamente dry (secco) e dare tantissimo volume all'acconciatura senza ungere i capelli; sicuramente uno dei migliori prodotti di questo tipo in commercio, particolarmente adatto per capelli fini
