Billy Jealousy Tinman Beard Wax with Light Hold & Matte Finish, Nourishing Beard Care Product Formulated with Natural Beeswax & Glycerin for Soft, Tamed Facial Hair, 2 Oz

I like the scent and the hold of this wax

I tried a couple of other products when I first started wearing handlebars. I found tinman in walmart and decided to give it a try. Works very well and holds all day. It ships quickly via Amazon but is available from other retailers. it is susceptible to moisture but drinking and eating are rarely an issue.

If you need serious hold, then this is your product. THere is not an overpowering smell, and it has a light shine as well.

I have a shorter, roughly 2" beard that is mostly grey, and I've been searching for months for a "strong hold' beard balm or wax that can keep it looking groomed and professional. Billy Jealousy Tin Man No 1 Beard Wax does a pretty good job of doing so. Despite the name, this has more of a putty, or even a clay-like, consistency rather than being waxy, and while it's easy to get out with the back of your thumbnail, it takes a fair amount of rubbing to get it to spread out between your palms. I use beard oil beforehand, and the residue oil on my palms and beard helps with spreading the beard wax. After brushing it through, I lightly blow dry it on low to help it "set", and then give it one final brush to get everything in place. It might lose its shape a little during the day, but goes back into place fairly easily using a brush or even just running my hands over it. The odor is quite mild and not readily identifiable.The only competitor to this is Urban Nomads Stronghold Beard Balm & Wax (which I reviewed separately). It has fantastic hold, but the vanilla/sugar smell was so strong and persistent my wife asked me to stop using it.

Bought this one based on other reviews and it’s a good choice. It has good hold without being too heavy. The only negative is it has a slight (very slight) tint to it. On light or gray color beards it takes some effort to work it in.

After some frustrating experiences with other beard waxes, I decided to give Billy Jealousy Tinman Beard Wax a try, hoping it would finally meet my expectations for a proper wax. While I did receive the correct product this time—a small victory—it quickly became clear that this product, too, leaned more toward being a balm than a traditional wax.Marketed as offering a light hold with a matte finish, the Tinman Beard Wax is formulated with natural ingredients like beeswax and glycerin, which do a great job of softening and nourishing beard hair. If your goal is to tame flyaways and leave your beard feeling conditioned, this might be the right product for you. However, for those of us looking for a strong wax to shape and style with structure, it falls short.Having been let down by other so-called "beard waxes," I’ve since returned to Amish-made beard waxes, which consistently provide the strength and reliability I need. The Tinman Beard Wax, while decent for light grooming, simply doesn’t perform the heavy-duty job its name suggests.If you prefer a balm-like product for softness and subtle control, this may be worth trying. But if you're in the market for a true beard wax with serious hold, you may want to keep searching.

This is definitely what my beard needed. I've tried just about every kind and style of beard products, but usually about midday my beard starts getting crazy. This adds weight and dries leaving you able to run your hands through it for a quick tame down. The scent is nice without being overpowering and lasts the day. I'm definitely purchasing this again.

My husband is a Barber and absolutely loves to use this product on his clients. It doesn’t dry out like most beard balms do after a certain amount of time.
