Medium-Hold Shaping Wax with Natural Glossy Finish
REF Shaper Wax is a pliable medium-hold styling wax built for textured, workable styles that stay reshapeable through the day. Jojoba and Sunflower Seed Oils sit alongside a wax base of Carnauba, Candelilla (Euphorbia Cerifera) and Ozokerite to give shape and definition without locking the hair in place. The finish is naturally glossy rather than wet or heavy, and the formula is 100% vegan and cruelty-free per the brand. 85ml jar.
Why Choose It?
- Medium hold — shapes and defines the style while staying pliable for reworking
- Naturally glossy finish — adds shine without a wet or greasy look
- Builds body and texture for tousled, lived-in or sharper crafted styles
- Easy to re-apply through the day for quick touch-ups
- 100% vegan and cruelty-free formula
Best For
Short to mid-length hair that needs shape, texture and a natural shine — from tousled, lived-in finishes to sharper styled looks. Suitable for all hair types per the brand, and a good fit for anyone who wants a pliable wax they can rework and re-apply through the day. 100% vegan formula.
Use on dry or towel-dried hair to shape, define and add texture — a small amount goes a long way.
- Start with dry or towel-dried hair.
- Scoop a small amount (about the size of a pea for short hair, more for longer hair) and rub between the palms to warm and soften the wax.
- Distribute evenly through the lengths and ends — work from the back forward.
- Shape and define the style with the fingers; use the tips for sharper detail.
- Re-apply a small amount during the day for touch-ups as needed.
Tips
- Build hold in layers — start with less than you think you need, then add more if the style needs to hold harder.
- For a longer-lasting set, pre-style with a REF REF styling spray for hold and texture before working the wax through.
- Wash out at the end of the day with a clarifying or balancing REF shampoo to keep the scalp clear of wax residue.
