I know, Brand Battle has been away for ages but it is (HONESTLY, IT IS!) coming back. Sign up to my newsletter for the info on its return: manforhimself.com/newsletter
Really appreciate the feedback mate and the honest review on it! Clutch XL just launched I’ll be sure to get you one. Thanks for the kind words Robin and for making a video on this.
I actually really like this stuff. I was skeptical about this because rarely do these overhyped products (particularly TH-camr hair products) live up to expectations. I know TDM raves about this product but I'm about 90% sure he and the salon guy are working together in some capacity so I took it with a grain of salt... But on a whim, bought a jar anyway. Absolutely incredible stuff. It worked incredibly well with my hair. Might be my favorite hair clay honestly
This is a very interesting product and I think this is the first time a hair product convinced me so well. My hair type is just like yours and this review is one of the best ones so I appreciate the work for testing this product!
I agree with "Random Subscriber" . A review of Moroccan Oil Texture Clay next would be nice :) After that, I'll probably finally make a decision on whether to purchase Clutch or Moroccan Oil Texture Clay! A solo review on Arcadian Clay Pomade would be cool too ! Since everyone seems to rave about it.
Thank you very much indeed Robin for all your hard work. Testing the new products, making and editing the videos and MOST importantly your honest review. Cheers mate.
Liking the new way of reviewing products. It feels slightly less robotic than the overhyped series (which was extremely helpful and great in its own way). More like this!
Your reviews are just SO GOOD Robin! You definitely get into the good, the bad, and all the bits in-between. Honest. :) If my hubby actually 'had' a hairstyle, I'd certainly send him your way for product details. But he doesn't... LOL. (Although, I'm hopeful - I have sat him down with your channel before, and I noted the following day it did inspire some information seeking - hehehe). xx
This one looked really promising, but after this review my worries were true and it's just a hyped up average clay with nothing too groundbreaking about it. Living in the UK, this really doesn't look like it's worth 26 quid when there's stuff like apothecary87 for 15 quid instead.
It's always up to the individual. Just here to give you my own opinion. If you have the cash, go for it! I was impressed by it, but it wasn't what I expected at all.
i really start to like your new haircut robin, thinking about copying it. how long, if you had to guess, do you think is your hair on top in the front ? also: have you ever thought on making a video on your manicure? or are you not doing it yourself? would be very interestng because i think it is a very important think for a modern man to have well groomed hands and fingernails especially ;) Thanks robin, and happy easter!
Another great review Robin! Thanks for keeping up with the quality content. Would you be up to review Lockhart’s Anti-Gravity? I bought it recently and have only tried it a couple times. Would love to hear your verdict!
Robin, you are the only YT-ber I trust, so please help me out here. I have fine hair, but lots of it. I want to get a voluminous, texturized hair. My hair length a bit longer than yours. I’m in the market for a new product. I’m pondering about Clutch and Fatboy perfect putty. Do you think those are worth the buy. And more importantly, would do they give me volume and texture for someone with fine hair?
I was just about to buy this product the other day, but I was honestly thinking "Just wait until Robin has done a review so that you can actually decide"". Great review as always and great content! (btw' Congratulations for becoming a barber and I can't wait to see more videos about it - sorry for saying this slightly later). Would you say that Arcadian clay has a similar hold/result for fine to medium hair and is worth buying it? Thanks Robin and hope you will do a monthly favourites.
I was disappointed by mine feeling as if it were just cheap hair wax except my cheap hair wax (Paul Mitchell’s Dry Wax), more easily washed out of my hair.... Surprising that yours washed out easily!
So, I've been trying Apothecary 87 for the past month or so and i am somewhat pleased with it, however I have a problem, i get tangly ends with the product and my hair gets ripped out because of it, even while using the tiniest amount. I was looking to try this product because from what I've heard, you don't get tangly ends or too much pull with it. So, for my specifications, would you recommend it?
Clay, clutch clay, wax, creme, creme-wax hybrid, pre-style, sea salt, pomade, gel, hairspray what does it all mean??? When do you use it??? I’m getting stressed!! It’s all a mystery to me🤭 ❤️David
Since a wax product has impressed you - Da' Dude Wax should hopefully be better. From reviews it seems to have a hairspray strength hold and lasts FOREVER.
Great review.. Do you think that night rider from Kevin murphy is better as far as hold than clutch? I have night rider, and like it a lot, but I've heard good things about clutch,.. Let me know what you think 👍🏻🙂
Robin, packaging is the best! I am sure, it is conscious choice. I can feel it. Why don't you do?) I don't know who worked on design, but it is like should be in our planet.
Great review ! Keeping it real! Seems like a good product, a little pricey. I use Hanz de Fuko Claymation. High quality product and has very strong hold(e)! :)
TheSalonGuy lol maybe its just me being cheap. Product does seem good though. I think in the Uk we are bombarded with tons of cheap products disguised as premium, so we tend to not splash out...in my opinion anyway
Robin! You should try to grow out your hair; id want to see you with a longer and different hairstyle than the usual pushed back disconnected quiff style.
Hey robin, would you take a look at fortify clay by Carter supply company? I use apothecary 87 and it works well but I want to see how it compares to this
So what is your favorite product? When I watch these videos of hyped products, usually it ends with something like “it’s good but there are others I prefer”. What are those others? I know u listed a few but anyone who has a favorite let me know, im looking around!
u hv suggested me to use a clay because im also having fine hair but its taugh to appy hair clay ,when ever im using clay that time i loose some hair strands how to fix it please help me
Hey robin im akash n im from india i want to ask u tht how i get the perfect hairline of my hair sometimes i see my hair line is not in perfect straight people think im get receding hairline and i don't have any hairfall problem nothing neither dandruff or anything like that but still i jst want to maintain my hairline perfect please help me i hope you will reply me on this soon thank you ☺️
I know, Brand Battle has been away for ages but it is (HONESTLY, IT IS!) coming back.

Robin James do the morris motley vs patricks 😉

Robin James finally i have been wating for this thanks for the honest review
Please do morris motley vs patrick's
Robin James this is late but I still want to see some brand battles.
Really appreciate the feedback mate and the honest review on it! Clutch XL just launched I’ll be sure to get you one. Thanks for the kind words Robin and for making a video on this.
Hey Stephen, you’re very welcome. I was impressed. 👌🏼
TheSalonGuy i want one. send me one plissssssssssssssssssssssssss
TheSalonGuy where’s the difference between Clutch and Clutch XL? I noticed they have the EXACT same ingredients list...
Robin James can you review some of his other products like talc, and tidal wave
John Herthropson hey bro the difference is the amounts are varied in XL to provide stronger hold and pliability.
Would love to see a brand battle between this or the xl version and claymation
Robin is the best guy when it comes to product reviews.
You are too kind!
yes you are Robin... I bought Craft Clay by Black Label (after watching your review ) and it is a great product. God bless
Top review as always, Robin! It was great to hear your thoughts on this.
Thanks Matt
Awesome review, look at Moroccan Oil Texture Clay?
Seriously i was about to sleep now and turn off my phone and i see a Robin James video...Ok after this 😂
LOVE this. Watch it, then sleep!
Just finished watching.Awesome review Robin! :)
I've been in same situations many times 😂
I actually really like this stuff. I was skeptical about this because rarely do these overhyped products (particularly TH-camr hair products) live up to expectations.

Absolutely incredible stuff. It worked incredibly well with my hair. Might be my favorite hair clay honestly
pmoore8230 thx and no we aren’t “working together” he’s just an awesome guy who likes my stuff and might actually believe in the brand!
This is a very interesting product and I think this is the first time a hair product convinced me so well. My hair type is just like yours and this review is one of the best ones so I appreciate the work for testing this product!
Ah, this is great! Glad I could be of some help.
This is how you do an unbiased review!
Honest as always! ♥
Have seen some reviews on clutch and those seemed kinda biased.
Been thinking this for your past few videos but the new haircut with the parting is fantastic. It's a bloody good look on you!
I agree with "Random Subscriber" . A review of Moroccan Oil Texture Clay next would be nice :)
After that, I'll probably finally make a decision on whether to purchase Clutch or Moroccan Oil Texture Clay!
A solo review on Arcadian Clay Pomade would be cool too ! Since everyone seems to rave about it.
Thank you Robin 😀😀
Clutch XL needs your hand on it !
Thank you very much indeed Robin for all your hard work. Testing the new products, making and editing the videos and MOST importantly your honest review. Cheers mate.
Another great review Robin! Just ordered the regular Clutch yesterday not knowing there was a Clutch XL. Damnit!!
The perfect way to end the TH-cam video marathon...is ending with Robin James's video ...lots of respect and great review..😊😊😊
Liking the new way of reviewing products. It feels slightly less robotic than the overhyped series (which was extremely helpful and great in its own way). More like this!

Very good review as always! Also, can u do a review on the Lockhart’s anti gravity?
great review as always robin. i would put "THE SALON GUY* in the title somewhere to rake in the outsiders. cheers x
Hey robin loved the video 👍 also you should try O’Douds matte paste!
Love the vids mate, can you do one for the best product to keep your hair up all day and that's windproof
I think it's a bit on pricey side..anyways robin Kevin Murphy rough rider or night rider for fine hair??
I want to do a review on Night Rider. Can tell you all.
Robin please do a review on the Bad Lab sculpting hair clay
Hey ahh... Robin can you make another hair styling video on your next..next video after brand battle
Ps:love your contenttt!!
I had been waiting for this kind of video :)

Robin, you should do a video on Smooth Viking Styling Clay
The new cut suits you Robin .
I’m giving it a go, I had Others but would like to try new
omg i was just hoping you'd review this like an hour ago
Robin will you do a review on courage clay and maybe even do a brand battle against arcadian clay pomade.
Great review Robin. Godbless you mate.
Robin, do you know of a cologne that comes close to the scent of Clutch Clay? I am in love with the scent
I was disappointed by mine feeling as if it were just cheap hair wax except my cheap hair wax (Paul Mitchell’s Dry Wax), more easily washed out of my hair.... Surprising that yours washed out easily!

David, I am going to help you!
Since a wax product has impressed you - Da' Dude Wax should hopefully be better. From reviews it seems to have a hairspray strength hold and lasts FOREVER.
Hey Robin, could you maybe do a review of the new LOCKHART ENIGMA VOLUMIZING CREAM? :)
Robin, please do a review on L'Oreal homme clay 5 strong hold..
Brand battle Courage Clay and Clutch clay!! Plz!
Hey Robin, did you use hairspray in this video?(not the demo) It looks amazing.
Hi Robin, please review Anchors Courage Clay.
I'm a claymation fan and I've just got a new one for £12.At double the price I think that's a little steep on price.
Great review.. Do you think that night rider from Kevin murphy is better as far as hold than clutch? I have night rider, and like it a lot, but I've heard good things about clutch,.. Let me know what you think 👍🏻🙂
Great video What do you think of the haircuts from peaky blinders are you a fan?
good idea, do a brandbattle , its been realy a while ...
Robin will you try Lockhart’s anti gravity please I’ve been wanting to get it but I want to see if it is worth it
Robin, packaging is the best!
I am sure, it is conscious choice. I can feel it. Why don't you do?)
I don't know who worked on design, but it is like should be in our planet.
Lol packaging is crap piece of shit
Review about Chief Barbernaut Space CLAY please :D
Please review Da'Dude Da' Wax, I’m fairly sure reviewers are being paid off to say it’s the best product available
Waiting for your brand battle videos
Me too!
Can you do a review on American Crew hold styling gel? ( cones in brown bottle )
Great review ! Keeping it real! Seems like a good product, a little pricey. I use Hanz de Fuko Claymation. High quality product and has very strong hold(e)! :)
Thank you!
I like the salon guy..watched him for a few years now. I really like fish products and for their prices you cant go wrong. This seems a tad expensive
Yeah buddy $19.99 for 3.5 oz is very reasonable considering it’s not being made in my kitchen.
And thank you for watching man!
TheSalonGuy lol maybe its just me being cheap. Product does seem good though. I think in the Uk we are bombarded with tons of cheap products disguised as premium, so we tend to not splash out...in my opinion anyway
Yeah buddy lol it’s all good mate
robin review lockharts anti gravity pleaseee, havent seen any decent reviews so far thanks.
Would love to!
Love that mustache LoL...
Hi Robin, A matt spray please?! Help me! Thanks
Have you ever talked about that jacket? I really like the collar, wondering where I can find something similar.
I haven't actually. AND... its no longer on sale. But will take a look at similar options.
Robin! You should try to grow out your hair; id want to see you with a longer and different hairstyle than the usual pushed back disconnected quiff style.
I am!
Hey robin, would you take a look at fortify clay by Carter supply company? I use apothecary 87 and it works well but I want to see how it compares to this

So what is your favorite product? When I watch these videos of hyped products, usually it ends with something like “it’s good but there are others I prefer”. What are those others? I know u listed a few but anyone who has a favorite let me know, im looking around!
I don't have one favourite. To have only one would limit me.
Robin James you can list a few!!
Can I use it in wet hair?
u hv suggested me to use a clay because im also having fine hair but its taugh to appy hair clay ,when ever im using clay that time i loose some hair strands how to fix it please help me

Easter egg for all those that remember 🐰🥚
It has so much tug and pull for me
For me it's really quite sticky?
Tim Wong try using less or apply it in wet hair as a pre styler. I’ve used a small amount on dry hair, fully rubbed into my hands and it works well.
TheSalonGuy I'll give it another go, I think I don't rub it in properly.
i like the plant😍XD
Too expensive for me
