Microcrystalline Wax adds texture and subtle gloss, enhancing polished looks.

PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil and Propylene Glycol ensure smooth application and moisture retention.

To use Vines Vintage Maxi Gum (125ml or 300ml):
Preparation: Scoop a small amount of Maxi Gum from the pot (125ml for home use, 300ml for salon use).

Application: Work the desired amount between palms to warm and soften. Lightly apply to wet or dry hair, distributing evenly from roots to ends to create your style (e.g., classic pompadour, slick-back, or extreme textured look).

Styling Tips: For a polished pompadour with height, apply to damp hair and blow-dry to finish. For extreme styles, apply to dry hair for maximum hold and subtle gloss. Restyle with a touch of water if needed.

Removal: Rinse out easily with warm water and shampoo, as the water-based formula leaves no residue.

Safety: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid contact with eyes; rinse immediately if product enters eyes. Perform a patch test 48 hours prior to check for allergies. Keep out of reach of children.

What is Vines Vintage Maxi Gum designed for? It’s a maximum hold styling gum (Level 4) for extreme or polished hairstyles, offering all-day control with subtle gloss, ideal for pompadours, slick-backs, or textured looks.

Is it vegan and cruelty-free? Yes, it’s 100% vegan and cruelty-free, using plant-based waxes and no animal-derived ingredients or testing, per industry standards.

What sizes are available? Available in 125ml (retail/home use) and 300ml (salon/professional use), with the larger size being cost-effective for barbers.

How long does the hold last? It holds firm for up to 24 hours, resisting humidity and wind, with users noting styles like pompadours stay intact all day.

Does it leave hair sticky or greasy? No, the fast-setting formula is non-sticky and non-greasy, providing a clean, glossy finish that’s easy to restyle or wash out.

Is it safe for sensitive scalps? Generally safe, but a patch test is advised due to fragrance (linalool, limonene), which may irritate sensitive scalps; apply to hair, not scalp.

Does it have a strong scent? It has a zesty, invigorating scent, described as clean and uplifting, not overpowering, enhancing the styling experience.

Can it be used on colour-treated hair? Yes, the water-based formula is safe for colour-treated hair, with waxes adding a protective, smooth finish without stripping colour.

Is it suitable for all hair types? Yes, it works for curly, wavy, or straight hair, particularly short to medium lengths, though fine hair may require less product to avoid heaviness.

How does it compare to other Vines Vintage products? Compared to Fibre Pomade (flexible hold, more shine) or Matt Pomade (matte, medium hold), Maxi Gum offers stronger hold and subtle gloss, ideal for structured or bold styles.
