Five days is the promise in the name, and the hold is built to match it.

Pop Lock is a glaze rather than a gel, firmer than most of the range and aimed at people who set their hair once and then want to leave it alone. It dries clear, with no flaking, and the humidity barrier it leaves is what keeps day five looking like day one in wet weather.

  • Firm hold designed to last around five days
  • Dries clear with no flakes or residue
  • Blocks humidity so the set does not swell
  • Proteins strengthen the strand and help reduce breakage

Strengthening proteins work on the curl pattern itself while the glaze holds it, so the hair is being looked after during the days it is being left alone.

8oz tub with a high shine finish, best on textured hair that gets styled on a Sunday and is expected to hold until Friday.

Application tips

Works best with nothing underneath it, so skip the oil and the leave-in on the day you use it.

Wet hair, small sections, and smooth it down each length so the cuticle lies flat. Dry it fully, by diffuser or hood, before you touch anything. Break the cast by scrunching with dry hands.

Results

A hold that genuinely lasts five days, which is rare, and stays put through workouts and damp weather. Shine is high and the curl pattern reads clearly from root to tip.

Once the cast is broken the hair is soft rather than stiff. Less time spent on hair across a week is the real return, since day five still looks like day one.
