Tallow Hair Clay – Medium Hold, Infused with Egg Yolk Oil
Rub a small dab between your fingers and run it through dry hair. It adds grip and separation, so hair stays put yet still moves. Start with a little, since it goes far. Reshape it any time without it locking up stiff.
Kaolin and bentonite give the grip, while beef tallow and egg yolk oil condition each strand as you style. Coconut, castor, and jojoba keep the clay smooth under your fingers. It finishes in a soft, low shine.
This is our Medium Hold, for men who like easy, restyleable texture. It rinses out with shampoo and leaves no buildup.

PACKAGING
It comes in a matte black aluminum tin with a screw-top lid. Aluminum recycles over and over without losing quality, so the empty tin never has to be trash. Wipe it out with a paper towel and drop it in your metal recycling. Or keep it. Customers reuse them for salves, seeds, travel jewelry, and fishing tackle. No plastic jar and no pump.
For external use only. We suggest a 24-hour patch test on a small area first, since every skin is different. If you notice any irritation, stop using it and check with your healthcare provider.
Our products are made in small batches using simple, natural ingredients, just like something you would make at home. We do not make medical claims, and our products are not intended to diagnose or treat medical conditions. These statements have not been evaluated by the FDA.

Because we do not use preservatives, natural variations in scent and texture are normal. Your product may soften in warm temperatures or firm up when cool. This is part of its natural nature. Store in a cool, dry place and avoid introducing water to keep it at its best.

Why I Started Making Tallow Skincare
Hi, my name is Brian, though around here I don’t mind being called Moose.
I’ve learned most of what I know about skincare from the women in my life, especially my wife and our four daughters. Moose’s Tallow has truly been a family project from the beginning.
I started making tallow skincare after a serious health scare forced me to rethink everything I put in my body. Once I focused on real ingredients, another question came up: if what we eat matters that much… what about what we put on our body?
After I mastered Whipped Tallow Body Butter, I wanted to keep changing things. I kept looking at the hair styling product I was using. It was a blue goo that dried like plastic.
I wondered if there was a better way to hold hair in place. Not with the petroleum and chemicals most clays and pomades use.
That's where our Hair Clay and Beard Balm came from. A real desire to make a hair clay and beard balm that actually work.
Key Ingredients
Full Ingredient List
HOW TO USE
Texture. Hold. Finish.
Scoop
Scoop a small, fingertip amount of tallow hair clay. A little goes a long way, so start light and add more if needed.
Emulsify
Rub between your palms until the clay warms and turns creamy, then work it evenly through dry or damp hair.
Style
Shape and texturize for a natural matte finish with flexible, reworkable hold that lasts all day.
How do we render tallow?
It starts at a local butcher shop in farm country, where one cow yields about 12 pounds of suet. That suet is the fat around the cow's kidneys, rich in vitamins A, D, E and K. Its fatty acids are ones your skin loves, so we render it slowly, by hand.

Day 1 & 2
Two renders of tallow over low heat, six hours each

Day 3 & 4
Dry render for eight hours, cool & dry render again for another eight hours

Day 5
Infuse tallow and oil with organic herbs over low heat for 12-24 hours

Day 6
Add in beeswax and essential oils (if applicable), cool, whip and fill by hand
