Frequently Asked Questions

What products should I use for thick men’s hair?

For thick hair, look for products that offer strong hold and texture without weighing your hair down. Matt Mud or similar clay-based products work well, as they add definition and control while maintaining a natural, matte look.

Additionally, a lightweight conditioner and volumizing shampoo can help keep thick hair manageable and full.

What can I do with thick hair as a male?

Thick hair can be styled in various ways to make it more manageable. Use a texturizing product like Matt Mud or clay to give it a controlled, matte finish that’s easy to shape.

Regular trims will keep it looking neat, and a good quality shampoo and conditioner will help maintain your hair’s health and manageability.

Is gel or pomade better for thick hair?

Neither! For thick hair, a clay like Matt Mud is the best choice.

Unlike gels or pomades, clay provides a strong, flexible hold without the shine or stiffness.

Matt Mud’s natural matte finish adds texture and control, allowing you to style thick hair with a natural, rugged look that stays in place all day – and you can even reshape it if needed.

FEATURING

Cellular Extractionâ„¢ Method

Many brands claim to be filled with all-natural ingredients but often rely on fermentation-based extraction methods that damage a plant’s cellular structure, compromising both quality and effectiveness—completely defeating the purpose. Our Australian supplier has pioneered the cutting-edge Cellular Level Extraction Method.™

This innovative technology ensures the cellular integrity of wild-harvested botanicals is maintained, resulting in the purest, true-to-nature extracts and potent bio-compounds available today.

Thanks to this advanced extraction method, we’re able to capture the natural potency and purity of Australian botanicals in their most authentic form, exactly as nature intended.

  • UNMATCHED POTENCY

    Cellular Extractionâ„¢ Technology ensures our natural Australian botanicals are delivered in their most pure and potent form, providing superior benefits for your skin, hair, and overall wellbeing.

  • RAPID, DEEP ABSORBTION

    Our bioactive compounds are more readily absorbed by your skin and hair, meaning faster, more visible results. This efficient delivery system means your skin and hair benefits from every nutrient.

  • SUSTAINED, NATURAL BENEFITS

    Our naturally potent extracts deliver enduring vitality and health, ensuring your skin and hair not only appear and feel their best but also receive lasting benefits.

WOW!

I've been using hair pastes for several years, looking for the perfect thing. Something gentle on the smell, but smells nice, something pliable, but holds strong. Something that doesn't melt in 112-degree desert weather. And most recently, something that's all-natural and healthy for my hair/scalp. THIS STUFF IS IT. 100% buying this from now on. I LOVE the smell. And it's crazy, but it pairs perfectly with the spray-on deodorant from Vitaman as well. I use 1/2 as much with this mud as I did with other pastes, and it holds REALLY well. Do yourself a favor at at least give it a shot.

Hey Logan, we really appreciate your lovely review!

We're extremely happy to hear that you love our Matt Mud and that your hair woes came to an end! :)

Look forward to speaking again soon - Dom, VITAMAN USA

All good Products Here !!

great hold and gives a natural matte look which was exactly what I was looking for.
they use safe ingredients that not only style, but nourish your hair. I also use the ‘hair food’ which I use with this product. I can already notice the improvement in my hairs volume from these two products!

Also, their customer service is 10/10. Dom is very responsive and helpful when I reached out about an issue with a different product. Would 100% recommend this brand to anyone!
Thanks Dom!!

Hey Mike, thank for the awesome review!

It's great to hear that you found the perfect hair styling product for your hair - I personally use the Matt Mud as well and I have to agree, it's amazing! Strong hold that lasts all day; it doesn't get much better than that :)

And I really appreciate your kind words as well!

Blew away my expectations!

I am a pomade man. I like shine, I like a good medium hold, and I especially like VitaMan's offering. That being said, with thr Black Friday sale going on, I figured I'd see what another product would be like, and boy am I pleased. I have a good full head of thick hair that's a medium length, and this product works flawlessly. I dont have a ton of experience with wax/clay products, but I was pleasantly surprised how easy it is to scoop out and emulsify in my hands. Doesnt take a whole lot to work into my hair, and it washes out from both my hands and head very easily. When they say this is a high hold product, they arent kidding. I usually end my styling with some hairspray, but I really don't need to when using Matt Mud. One thing in particular I noticed is that my hair feels so soft after I apply this. I'm very used to a pomades silky softness, but the mud is more of a feather-y soft. The finish definitely is matte, though the picture might not totally reflect that (my hair has a pretty decent natural shine), and while I very much love higher shine products like pomade, I can appreciate a more subdued finish. Oh, and I used a combination of the sea salt spray along with the mud for the picture. The spray creates the volume, and the mud holds it in place all day.

Overall, I was very surprised at how much I like this. I don't think it'll replace pomade as my main styling product, but I definitely have loved using it, and I can see myself getting more in the future!

Hey Cody, thank you so much for another AMAZING review - we really appreciate it!

Thank you for going into so much detail. As someone who uses the Matt Mud as the main hair styling product, I couldn't have said it better even if I tried to :)

I'm glad that you're willing to experience with other products to find the best fit for you - that's what it's all about!

Again, THANK YOU for a great review and I look forward to speaking to you soon.

P.S. I'm sure your girlfriend also likes the way our products make you look (both skincare, haircare AND hairstyling!)
