Summary: Great product
Comment: I love Jonathan Dirt. It lets me style my hair and forget about it. Other products that you get from the store make your hair crunchy and stiff. This keeps it in place without it being stiff. I've used it for over the past year. First ordered from QVC until they quit carrying it then started getting it from Sephora directly and now Sephora through Amazon.

Summary: great texturizing paste, stiffer than hair wax
Comment: A little goes a long way. Work Dirt through just the ends, unless you want a very dirty look. It's stiffer than hair wax so you can maintain soft spikes or a clumpier look than with hair wax. BTW, Dirt doesn't hold stiff spikes. If you have fine hair and just want a little soft texture, hair wax might work better for you. I like Brit Style hair wax for that purpose (as with Dirt, put a small amount on the ends).

Summary: Great, but doesn't last long as I hoped...
Comment: I was introduced to this product from a friend who did not enjoy it. But having short hair and looking for a none gel that would allow me to mold and sculpt my hair this product was right up my ally. It leaves my hair frizz free and mold able to do what I please with it, but about half way through the day it seems to "absorb" into my hair or something, b/c the hold goes away a little. But it does leave my hair softer and shiny which I enjoy.
One negative I also noticed is it leaves glitter in your hand after you apply it and sometimes after you wash your hands. It also smells great, like desert!
Overall great product.

Summary: The search is over!
Comment: In an effort to perfect the "purposefully messy" look, I've spent the last several years trying just about every texturizing product available. Not a single one of them comes close to offering the functionality and results that Dirt offers.

At first, I was skeptical because the product is very thick and doesn't emulsify easily in my hands. All doubt were laid to rest, though, when, in a hurry, I worked it through damp (towel-dried) hair, ran out the door, and discovered later in the day that my hair looked its best in years -- just as if it had been professionally styled!

This product achieves incredible texture and separation -- the hairs seem to automatically cluster together in ideal-sized pieces, which then seem to automatically splay out in a very natural-looking way. Your hair WON'T look overly done-up, like you spent 45 minutes working on it. Best yet: this stuff rinses out almost completely with plain water (no shampoo). And it leaves your hair feeling conditioned and healthy. I just can't imagine a product better suited to this application.

One suggestion: if you like your hair shiny, I'd recommend layering a coat of shine spray (such as Bed Head Headrush) on after you've styled with Dirt.

To provide some context, here are some of the other products I've tried, arranged approximately in descending order of my satisfaction with them:

1. Aveda Control Paste (Pros: Smells luscious, washes out OK. Cons: Hair feels sticky. Style doesn't last through the day.)
2. Davines Wonder Wax (Pros: Smells good, offers incredible shine, strong hold. Cons: Extremely thick. Requires 3-4 washings to remove.)
3. D:Fi D:Struct Pliable Molding Creme (Pros: Flexible hold, rinses out of hair easily. Cons: Nauseating pina colada fragrance.)
4. Bed Head Hard To Get Texturizing Paste (Pros: Strong hold. Cons: Very thick and sticky. Leaves spots on car headrests, etc.)
5. Bed Head Manipulator (Similar to #4.)
6. Bumble & Bumble Styling Wax (Pros: Nice smell, rinses out of hair easily. Cons: Very expensive, ineffective hold, sticky texture, leaves hair feeling damaged after wash-out.)
7. American Crew Classic Wax (Pros: Inexpensive, easy to find. Cons: Very oily.)
8. American Crew Fiber (Pros: Inexpensive, easy to find. Cons: Hold is too stiff. Good for outrageous styling, but not for subtler styles.)
9. Cristophe Beverly Hills Texturizing Fiber Paste (Pros: Inexpensive, sold at CVS. Cons: Despicable texture. Hard to control. Smells bad.)
