Murray's Edge Wax

Price $4.99 4 oz


When it comes to edge control products I think I have tried them all. I have read all the empty promises that companies have slapped on the back of packaging to products  which have come up short. I have tried so many different types of edge controls that have made it to my product stash grave yard section of no return. I gave up on finding a product that can tame my thick mane for my up do hair days. My hair is a beast when it comes to products that are meant to help fight frizz or smooth. They simply just don't work or only work for a very short time frame.I have always been a fan of Murray's products. Great quality great prices trusted  brand and easy to find.  I came across this wonderful product and was hesitate to try it at first but being that I have always been a fan of Murray's products I knew it wouldn't fail me and it didn't. This product was inexpensive, has a very nice smell, and smooth creamy consistency. The biggest thing that stood out was the color and texture of this product. The biggest problems I always hear with edge control products is the build up of white icky that it leaves and the oily mess they have. I didn't have any problems with using this product. No stickiness no oiliness no gunk.  Its a smooth combination of the Murray's trade mark wax and a nice gel of some sort. It looks white in the jar but comes off  clear once added to the hair. I used this product first simply on my edges one morning before heading to school. By the time I got to work later that evening my edges were still smooth. They stayed smooth for the next couple of days with little replying of the product. (Quick tip when using edge controls only use a tiny small amount to cut down on build up) I really like this stuff I think its a keeper. I will be experimenting with the different uses for this product i.e. twist outs, quickie wash n gos, buns. I highly approve of this products for all hair types. Now with any product expect some type of build up. This product has a wax based so just be alarmed that you will have to wash your hair to make sure there is no wax build up. Other than that I really think the Murray company has something special here in this 4 oz jar. I'm surprised that this product isn't plastered across all the blogs yet. This is a great product I;m so glad I tried it and I'm finally getting around to review it. There's one more product I'm gonna try the Murray's Cream Wax African Export reviewed it a long time ago on YouTube and I think I'm gonna finally give it a shot this spring/summer once my other twist products are used up.
