I really like this molding paste/cream. It's like a super-thick whipped topping, and smells faintly of vanilla. I have thin, wavy hair that gets oily quickly, and if I apply a dollop of Molder to my hair when damp, then scrunch it up a little, it really brings out the curls and adds texture to my hair. Even though it's thick, it surprisingly doesn't weigh down hair or make it greasy. This would be GREAT for giving hair a little texture, or "grab" when you need to twist, secure, or pin your hair and don't want to use hairspray or a gel. Molder leaves your hair softer and non-gunky than sprays and gels, IMHO. My husband also uses this, and he said it REALLY holds his hair in place, like a wax or pomade, so I think it gives really secure hold to short hair. It comes in a white little tub with a screw-on green lid if you decide to look for it.
