Pete & Pedro Putty is where you turn when you want a strong hold with a matt finish to complement your serious style.
You know it. We know it. And Pete & Pedro know it too.
But, we thought, after we heard about Mack for Men’s HydroClay, what if there’s another men’s hair product that holds up just as well?
So, just like we did with Hanz de Fuko Claymation, we threw Mack for Men HydroClay in the ring against Pete & Pedro Putty.
In case you’re wondering, we applied both to head after head and style after style. And, while we didn’t mind the work, we did it so you don’t have to worry about such trials. You can, if you want, of course.
