Magic Mud

I have used this product for a month before writing a review. I'm a middle-aged dad with nothing left in this life but my hair. It's pretty glorious and I've been putting it through daily washing and conditioning for many years. As it has changed with my age, I noticed it getting dryer, frizzier and curling up on its own when it used to be very straight. I've tried a lot of new products and I do like this the best. Since using it, Ive ditched regular shampoo and conditioner. I occasionally use a leave in conditioner and sometimes a styling cream. However, I use waaaay less of all other products since using this stuff. I like that it leaves my natural oils in and still cleans my hair so it doesn't smell bad. I have also had head acne for my entire adult life. I suspect it's because regular shampooing dries me out and causes my scalp to over-produce natural oils. Since using this product, my head acne has decreased. I use the Magic Mud 6 days a week and the light shampoo bar once a week for a deeper cleanse. I feel this routine is best for me so far, but welcome advice from anyone (the manufacturer). The only complaint I have is that they don't offer a referral bonus or discount since I have turned a few other dads on to it since I've started using it.

No longer need product to keep my hair in line, no more poofy hair.

I’m a few days into using these and I’m really liking them so far!

I rarely write reviews because most products do not live up to their hype. We stop the presses. Modern Mammals is the real deal. For decades I have tried every kind of shampoo, treatment, and way to stop my scalp from being an itchy disaster. 3 weeks ago I took the plunge with MM. It arrived, and it is NOT shampoo, it has the consistency of a thick conditioner. I was a wash my hair daily person, and now Ive washed my hair twice in three weeks. Great feel, not greasy, and my scalp is healing!

Really happy with this stuff. Not sure how it works but it's definitely better than anything I've tried so far. Stay in business please MM!

Didn't know I needed this. I have fine hair which is hard to style. This makes it so much easier. Got rid of normal shampoo, conditioner, and after shower product I used to try and give my hair some more manageability. I just use Modern Mammals now and love it. My scalp isn't as itchy as it was either, so I got rid of my scalp scrub and dandruff shampoo as well.

Just the bar. Not the mud. But the bar is great. Noticeable improvement. Hair is fuller with more life.

Pete Holmes got me again.
Ka'chava, magic mind, alpha brain, and now modern mammals, call me a sucker but they work, this product works..

My hair feels great, with less frizz and damage after a weeks use, great stuff.

I love this stuff so much but I’m a big idiot and bought the hair story one first. Now I have to use up $40 worth of that before I can buy this one again. Very sad! It’s way easier to rinse and gives better curls.

I finally found a shampoo that doesn't make my hair feel brittle and dry after a shower (even after using conditioner as well). My hair doesn't react well to most commercial shampoos. And i know that because I was making my own shampoo for a while, but it became too annoying and I started to use normal shampoo again. Then I saw Modern Mammals. Not sure if I got the ad because of my searches or what, but I figured I'd try it. It's a bit expensive, but well worth it.

ive been trying to find the right hair product for me for YEARS. everything from dollar store products to name brands that preach healthy hair, nothing worked and some even left my hair tinner and frizzier than before.
modern mammals popped up on my instagram feed a few months ago, and after doing a bit of digging i decided to give it a try, since i liked the idea of only having to use one product instead of 3. after trying it for a few weeks; when i tell you this shit works, i mean it WORKS.
my showers used to take 40 plus minutes due to how much product i had to use, but with modern mammals that time has been halved, with some of my showers taking as little as 15 minutes. not only does it mean i dont have to take as much time dedicated to showering, but it also means my chronic pain wont bother me nearly as much.
and dont even get me started on the results. i was skeptical at first given the texture, it's similar to conditioner but thicker and not as sticky feeling. i thought for sure that it was going to make my hair a greasy wreck. oh boy was i wrong.
every time i shower it's like i just went to a barber and got my hair treated with the highest-end materials they had. the scent isn't overwhelming; in fact it's barely there, leaving the window open to apply whatever you want to your hair to make it smell however you like, or, if you're like me, just leave it subtle. my hair is the softest it's ever felt, and i find myself running my fingers through my hair often. i've never had soft hair like this before. it's so awesome.
i have long wavy hair, and most products usually frizz my waves to all hell, making my hair look like i just went through a tumble dry. the magic mud completely blows that problem out of the water. i no longer have to worry about ends that look like they've been deep fried, or waves that look more like tumbleweeds. modern mammals is a lifesaver.

I bought a sample pack of the mud and found it fixed my dry scalp/flaking at least as well as my previous shampoo (Act + Acre) which I liked quite a bit already. The typical wash cycle for my hair goes from clean, and a bit too dry, to greasy over about 4 days. Where this product wins it that it basically resets me to day 2. Since day 3 is probably my best hair day, and day 1 always sucks a little (too dry), this is a really impressive product for giving me a really nice, relaxed style right out of the shower. Overall, I can also just feel that my hair is really balanced and fluctuating between dry and greasy MUCH less.

Now for the styling. I've always used a dry clay pomade (baxters) and it has given me an unbeatable combo of hold and texture in a dry look (so it all looks natural) for 10+ years. With the mud my hair looks the best it ever has without product, but i still usually need some (hair is 2+ inches long). My conundrum is that I'm finding that this shampoo changes my hair so dramatically that the same pomade isn't working quite as well anymore--it's making my hair a bit greasy. Since starting with the mud, I've used hanz de fuko clay, baxters clay and bumble and bumble sumotech and the latter 2 are now too greasy for my hair. So there's some adjustments to make.

The last piece is that since this product resets my hair to day 2, I also need to wash it more regularly (before I was going 3-5 days between washes). This means I need to spend more time styling it. All said, my hair is clearly the best off from this shampoo than it has ever been and they deserve credit for that. Just want to share how it changed my whole hair regimen! Since I prefer washing a bit less, I think I'm going to try the bar before getting a bottle of the mud.

Great product!!

This stuff works and leaves your hair healthier than ever.

my packages weren't damaged, so i guess if you want to pay for product protection, go for it
