Featherweight gets its name from being a lighter paste, that packs a punch. With low shine and firm hold, this is one of the most versatile products in the Uppercut Deluxe range.

This fiber paste was originally designed for the no-nonsense kinda guy, the guy who wants a product that can do it all. Featherweight is a light paste that has plenty of tack, which makes it perfect for creating volume and lift in styles that need a boost. Topped off with a low shine, Featherweight is perfect for creating textured, pieced out styles.

Apply to dry hair that has been washed beforehand with Uppercut Deluxe Everyday Shampoo and Conditioner.

Start by working a small amount of product into your palms and spreading evenly across both hands. Apply a small amount to the fringe area using fingertips then work from the back of your head forwards making sure to spread product evenly throughout your hair.

Mold your hair into whatever shape you like adding more product for more control. Take a step back, and admire.
