Hi I'm Joost and I'm here today with the Apocot Deluxe Featherweight and as you can see it has a very light hold here and a light shine
0:08
But it's mostly matte. They call it a fiber paste but I think it's closer to what other brands call a matte pomade and it smells very light
0:15
It's a very light smell, a little bit flowery and maybe a little bit citrusy but it doesn't smell too much so it's a very featherweight hold and it's a very featherweight smell
0:27
So it's not too intrusive. This has the same cool boxer design as the other Apocot products but of course it's about what's inside
0:34
And this is quite a creamy substance. It's almost like hair creams that other brands offer but they call it a fiber paste. I think it's more like a matte pomade
0:44
It has a very light shine but still a good hold. They say a 7 out of 10 hold and a 4 out of 10 shine
0:51
So the featherweight is more about the shine than the hold and also the smell because it has a very light smell
0:57
Because it's so creamy what I like to do is rub a little across my hands. Make sure that it's evenly divided so I don't get any lumps
1:04
And then rub that across the top of my hair to make it a little spiky and make it stand up
1:09
And then I take a little bit extra and do the back and sides of my hair again just to make sure that it stays in place all day
1:15
I don't have to use a lot of the product to make my hair stand up but I think it's more suited to a little bit longer hair if you want like a messy out of bed look
1:24
So these fiber pastes are more of like a matte messy look. So I applied it to the longer hair of my son as well just to make that stand to the side
1:32
And the advantage here is that you can go through your hair during the day without it getting crunchy like with gels
1:38
So I think this featherweight product is perfect for those who want just a messy matte look with a little stronger hold than like a hair cream
