Excellent products, originally for my son but the whole family use . The hairspray is amazing !! Sea salt spray is fab too. Moulding clay is good for styling
Amazing products, the hair powder gave my son's hair instant volume and texture. Decided to purchase after his barber used on him. Fast delivery. Would recommend!
Their bleaching kit is in stylish packaging more importantly it's death simple and effective to use. Using it right now the third times. Very pleased with it. I have light brown hair at front and turn... See more

The scent is Terrible but the product is good
I bought a sea salt spray and a clay pomade.They both worked really well,it’s so good for volume and texture.However,The scent of the products are terrible,the sea salt spray smells like stinky seafoods in your head.If you are looking for a good smelling product don’t buy this.

Thanks for your feedback – we’re really glad to hear you liked how the Sea Salt Spray and Clay Pomade performed in terms of volume and texture.
Regarding the scent – the Sea Salt Spray definitely shouldn’t smell like seafood. That’s not the intended fragrance at all, and it sounds like there may be an issue with the bottle you received. We take quality seriously, and we’d really appreciate the chance to look into this further.
Please drop us an email at support@slickgorilla.co.uk so our team can help resolve this for you directly.
Thanks again for your review and for choosing Slick Gorilla.
Best,

Their bleaching kit
Their bleaching kit is in stylish packaging more importantly it's death simple and effective to use. Using it right now the third times. Very pleased with it. I have light brown hair at front and turns into dark brown at the back but it works evenly well.

Great products. Slow customer service reponse
Updated my rating based on the fact that on the back of my initial review, I was contacted direct and the refund was delivered the same day. It is frustrating that it took so long to get to this resolution but the reaction has led to me feeling better about the experience.
Bought two sets. Had to chase after a week where they were. Turns out they weren't shipped. Eventually sent one of the two products. The communication from them was poor and contradictory, I had to constantly chase. Took a long time to get a refund.
The products I got were great however customer service let down the overall experience with the brand.

Don’t bother with the clay pomade
Bought the slick gorilla clay pomade and it says “firm hold”
Genuinely the worst firm hold product I’ve used and it’s £12. An absolute waste of time

Poor Product & Refund Policy
I ordered this product in June 2024 and requested a refund on June 13, 2024. The initial return slip I received via email was of such poor quality that the post office couldn't scan it (the issue was with the file quality, not our printer). This resulted in wasted trips to two post offices and a delay.
After informing the company that the label wouldn't scan, eventually, a better quality file was sent, and I used it to send the return on June 19, 2024. By June 28, I still hadn't received a refund, so I contacted the company again.
They finally processed the refund after I inquired about its status. When I asked why I had to follow up to receive my refund, I was told that refunds are processed manually because the office is not at the fulfillment center, and some requests "slip through the gaps."
This reveals a gap in their process (excuse the pun): when a customer requests a refund, it’s usually due to a poor experience. This situation has worsened my perception of the company.
I shouldn't have to chase a return, especially two weeks after starting the process!

Hi Jonathan,
Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback—we truly appreciate it, even though we’re sorry to hear about your experience.
We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience you faced with the return label and the delay in your refund. You’re absolutely right—having to chase a return, especially after a less-than-satisfactory product experience, only adds to the frustration. That’s not the experience we want any customer to have.
Your comments have highlighted a clear gap in our process, and we’re actively working on improvements to ensure refund requests are handled more efficiently and proactively, without requiring follow-ups.
We understand this situation has impacted your perception of us, and we genuinely regret that. If there’s anything further we can do to make this right, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us directly at support@slickgorilla.co.uk.
Thanks again for your honest feedback—it’s helping us do better.
Best regards,

Hi Michel,
Thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback—though we're sorry to hear your experience with our products was disappointing.
We understand how important both performance and scent are when it comes to styling products, and it’s clear we missed the mark for you. Our formulations are developed with quality and versatility in mind, but we know they won’t suit everyone—and we appreciate your honesty.
If you’d be open to it, we’d love to learn more about your experience and see if there’s something better suited to your needs, or help arrange a return. You can reach us at support@slickgorilla.co.uk.
We really value feedback like this—it helps guide how we improve.
Best regards,

Amazing products
I've recently started using their products and they are so much better than anything I ever had the chance of trying. The hair styling powder last all-day even when getting wet and the clay pomades are perfect when you need something a little stronger when styling your hair.

The right monkey!
This review is for the slick gorilla hairstyling powder.
My barber introduced me to this wonderful product but I made a mistake and bought a different brand with a monkey face on the bottle online. Big mistake.
Slick gorilla is way better and now is my favorite hairstyling product. Though I'd love it more if it made my hair just a bit less dry while still keeping the hold.
5 stars!
