Uppercut Deluxe Strong Hold Matte Clay 60g is the Australian barber brand's signature water-based hair styling clay, delivering a strong but flexible hold with a natural matte finish. The water-and-wax formula stays reworkable through the day, never fully sets, and washes out cleanly with water alone — perfect for textured crops, quiffs and modern messy styles.

Who it's for
This clay suits men who want strong hold and a natural matte finish — particularly fans of textured crops, quiffs, messy styles and modern classic looks. The water-based formula makes it especially friendly for those who shampoo daily and want a clean wash-out, and the strong hold also makes it useful for taming thick, stubborn or difficult-to-control hair.
How to use
- Towel-dry hair until it's damp but not wet
- Scoop a small amount of clay onto your fingertips — roughly the size of a 10p coin
- Rub between palms to warm and soften the product
- Work through the hair from root to tip, focusing on texture and shape
- Restyle with fingers or a comb as desired throughout the day
- Wash out with water and your usual shampoo
