This product is the only thing that gets my very thick and wiry hair looking in any way stylish. I have tried the other Dax products, and the red variety is definitely the best for my hair.
I use it after I have towel dried my hair thoroughly, rub a small amount onto my fingers and then work it through. It's quite solid wax, but it still allows you to shape it once it's in your hair. Rubbing it through your fingers first softens it up a little and means its easier to work with.
As others have mentioned, the hold is tremendous, especially if you use tiny additional amounts on top of your original application to shape specific parts of your hair.
GETTING IT OUT OF YOUR HANDS AND HAIR
Now, I have heard many people talk about how hard it is to get out of your hands and hair. I almost stopped using it for that very reason. However, the secret is baby oil. After I put it into my hair, I rub a small about of baby oil into my hands - it takes the Dax right out. Then I just wash my hand with soap and water as normal.
Same thing with hair - I just put a small amount of baby oil over my hands, then just work my hands through my hair, before shampooing as normal. Hair is left feeling like there is nothing in it again.
The only times I bother to do this is if I'm going to the hairdressers and they need my hair to be thoroughly clean, or occasionally the build-up of Dax can get quite greasy looking, so it's better to start from scratch again.
Be careful with how much baby oil you use, though, otherwise it will be that you'll struggle to shampoo out, not the Dax. Just experiment with a very small amount in the first instance, and apply additional small amounts as needed.
