AMERICAN CREW Matte Clay Texturizing Spray for Men — 5.1 oz, Matte Finish & Medium Hold for Volume and Texture

American Crew Matte Clay Spray is a texturizing hair spray that adds matte definition, volume and lasting medium hold while washing out easily.

Designed for everyday styling, this spray combines kaolin clay with a lightweight aerosol formula to create texture, thickness and a natural matte finish without stiffness. It works best on dry hair and responds well to hand-styling, letting you build lift and separation where needed. From short, layered cuts to medium-length styles, it creates a lived-in, sculpted look without shine or crunch.

How will this spray change my styling routine?

Swap heavier pastes or creams for the Matte Clay Spray when you want quicker application and cleaner re-styling during the day. A few quick bursts across dry hair add instant body and grip, making it easier to shape hair with your fingers in seconds. It’s especially helpful when you need fast texture and a controlled, natural finish.

• Spray onto dry hair and scalp for immediate texture and lift
• Work through with fingers to create separation and thickness
• Reapply sparingly to refresh hold without adding shine

What kind of hold and finish can I expect all day?

The formula delivers a reliable medium-to-strong hold that keeps styles in place without feeling rigid. The kaolin clay ingredient helps absorb excess oil and reduces unwanted shine, producing a true matte appearance. Despite its lasting hold, the product rinses out cleanly at shampoo, avoiding residue buildup.

• Medium to long-lasting hold suitable for many hair lengths
• Matte, non-greasy finish that reduces shine
• Washes out easily with regular shampoo

Will this work on my hair type and length?

Matte Clay Spray was formulated for men with short to medium-length hair, and it adapts well to straight, wavy, and slightly curly hair types. Fine hair gains visible thickness and lift, while thicker hair benefits from added definition and separation. For very long or very curly hair, combine with other styling products for stronger control.

• Adds volume to fine or thinning hair
• Creates separation and texture in medium or thick hair
• Best used on dry hair; layer with other stylers if extra control is needed

How do I apply it for best results?

Shake the can before use, then spray evenly over dry hair and scalp from a short distance. Use your hands to tousle, lift, and shape—target roots for volume or fingertips for piecey definition. Reapply a light mist if you need more texture; avoid oversaturating to maintain the matte effect.

• Shake well, then spray 6–8 inches from hair
• Work product through with fingers to build style
• Reapply lightly to refresh texture without adding shine
