The Cardinal Brand's Atticus distills the best parts of pomade, putty, and matte clay. The result is a multi- tasking wonder, perfect for all hair types. You can use this versatile formula on either dry or damp hair to create separation, texture, and medium hold. Atticus is appropriate for short, medium, or long hair, and provides a semi-matte, dry finish. To use, emulsify a small amount of Atticus in your hands and apply with fingers from roots to ends. Shape and move hair into desired style and let set. For controlled definition of waves and curls, apply to damp hair, work through, and air dry.
