Is Gatsby really that amazing? I hear people go through all the trouble to buying it online and stuff. n-n Should I try it out? Is the hold strong enough, because I need something that will hold. Will it hold long enough so that I can hairspray it? Because when I use gel, it just lolfalls before I can hairspray it. Edit* Oh yeah, I have relatively /short/ hair.

Only if you have decently long hair. Even then, I'd recommend mousse over wax.

It's decent, most of the popularity is just from others hyping it up, but there are tons of other useful wax's, such as Oasis, or Uno. I'd say Oasis is stronger compared to Gatsby, and generally, if you have medium - long hair, I'd suggest using a little bit of spray.

And yes, it's supposed to hold for the whole day but remain in a state where you could restyle it again and again. So absolutely, you can hairspray it right after a while.

Oh, another question. Can I use water with wax?

You can, but it messes up the texture of your hair, and it doesn't have that "natural" look you're supposed to get. The wax retains some water if you put it in it. @People who are confused about the colors http://www.stylenerds.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/moving-rubber-chart-new-en.jpg

[quote] Butterfree : Oh, another question. Can I use water with wax? [/quote] Not really. But I would suggest if you're gonna use wax to do it with towel-dried hair. Like at that kinda-still-wet-but-not-really state.

I use Gatsby, & I've gotta say it does not hold my hair up. Even with hairspray. I've used the pink & green one :|
