spikes what spikes [SEP] i bought this stuff on a whim and after using it for a while i would say that i wish i had just gotten the spiking glue instead the benefits of this wax product is that it does not seem to flake it washes out very easily and it seems to be very good at providing texture to your hair style the downside for me is that for something called spiking wax it does not seem to do a good job at all when it comes to creating or holding spikes i found my hair regularly coming back down by the end of a work day which might look more natural in the end but just was not what i was looking forif you are looking for something to create a textured look this will probably work wellif you are looking for spikes and are hoping that you can do it without the flakes or impossible to wash out product then this product just seems to be proof that you cannot have your cake and eat it too
