Redken Pliable Styling Paste, Medium Hold
Redken
Read our Redken brand guide →A lightweight medium-hold styling paste that adds texture, grip and moisture while staying reworkable all day.
Why Asian Stylists Recommend It
Thick Asian hair gets heavy fast under waxes, so a lightweight reworkable paste keeps movement without turning a layered cut solid.

Best for
Layered or textured cuts, short or long, that need definition you can restyle through the day.
Avoid if
Skip it if you need all-day locked hold for a formal or spiky style — medium hold will soften.
Why we recommend it
Pliable Paste is a professional medium-hold texturizer that adds grip without weighing hair down, which is the balance most people miss when they reach for a heavy wax. It stays pliable, so you can rearrange or touch up a style later without flaking or build-up. Redken recommends applying it to damp hair to shape, mold or twist, and it suits layered cuts, short crops and longer lengths alike. The finish is meant to look natural rather than sticky.
