Fiber by American Crew is THE BEST WAX ever. And for £12 a tub (Size 3.53 Oz) its just as well thats its as good as it is. Suitable for any length of hair, you can create solid styles without any wet/greasy look as a side effect. Which is clearly a bonus, as a wet look is generally a BAD look.
The packaging itself is sleek and with its large blue lid, easily recognisable, and you will probably recognise it from your local salon anyway as most good ... ...issue i have had with American Crew other than the slightly expensive price tag, is not a big deal.
American Crew do a range of hair products, and they have a very good reputation, and from my experience (over a year of using FIber) i can see why.
Therefore:
+Easy to create ANY style
+Used it for a year with no problems!
+Natural look, low shine
+Nice smell
+Nice packaging
+Nice texture
+Wont dry ROCK SOLID and inadvertedly give you the ...

Advantages: styles hair well, less sticky than wax Disadvantages: bit pricey, smells weird
...started on Fiber (note the American spelling) after a bit of persuasion - I mean, the 100 gram tub costs a tenner! But to shut him up I decided to give it a try.
For quite a while I was happy using Tigi Bed Head, a blue, gooey, semi fibrous creme that did a pretty good job. But when I started using the American Crew Fiber I was impressed. It is called a 'Pliable Molding Creme' and is a thick, fibrous, semi solid creme. It isn't too eager to rub ... ...perfumed chemicals or alcohol.
American Crew do a range of hair products, and I also use the shampoo and the conditioner (probably shouldn't have admitted to the last one, but it was bought for me as a present - honest) and they do the job but not wildly better than any other shampoos or conditioners do.
As to whether the Fiber is better than any of the other hairstyling products on the market it is definitely a question of personal preference. ...

Advantages: Excellent styling, matt effect, easy to use, actually works and holds Disadvantages: Higher than most price, availablility
...I then came across American Crew Fibre. In short, this product is exactly what I've been searching for, and this is why.
Unlike the others, Crew Fibre is a unique product. It doesn't look, feel or even smell the same as the rest and it creates the kind of styles not possible with the others. Another plus is that it actually lasts! No longer do you have to worry about a bit of rain or a gust of wind spoiling your hair on a night out, this stuff holds ... ...having to resort to more being applied.
Another bonus is that this creates a matt effect. If you're tired of greasy or wet looking hair from using hair gels or some slime type products you'll love this. It looks like a natural hold and you can't tell there's a product being used here.
There are some downsides however, the first being that it's not the cheapest of products. At over £10 for a standard puck it's almost 3 times the cost of supermarket ...

Advantages: quality product Disadvantages: expensive, sets quickly, won't suit people with fine hair
...products I decided to try American Crew Fiber. I have very thick hair (I am asian - Indian Origin) which tends to stick out and fuzz if cut short.
Hair Wax gave me a greasy look and gel made my hair crusty and look like straw. So I was in search of a product that gave me a natural clean finish that gave good hold.
AMERICAN CREW FIBER...
You can only buy Amerian Crew online or from salons so dont go looking for it in your local shop. I paid £7.99 ... ...The tub is a 'puck' (ice hockey) sized plastic container with a screw lid that just oozes 'quality'.
The product itself is a light creamy yellow colour and has a hard/medium consistancy (like solid fudge). The smell is quite exceptional and I like it VERY much, difficult to describe but words like 'creamy, lemon and coconut' spring to mind and isn't over powering like some strong gels I've smelt. (You cant smell it once you've applied it).

Advantages: Smells nice, good hold Disadvantages: none.
...go to promote the full American Crew brand ranging from wax to shampoo`s, conditioner`s, etc. Whenever I was in having my hair styled this was the brand of product they used so I decided to give American Crew a try.
I have a short to medium length hair cut which has various spiky bits which require products which can provide good hold. Lots of the styling gels I had previously used tended to make the hair rock hard and matt it together. American ... ...Its a pretty small tub so pretty easy to store.
The Fibre smells good as well which is an extra benefit.
American Crew fibre is a product for those who are particular about their hairstyle and want a good quality product to maintain it.
Would definately recommend. ...

Advantages: Perfect for a messy disheveled look Disadvantages: Only suitable for short hair - not a strong a hold
This is definitaly a popular product in the UK at the moment, and so I thought I'd give it a go. All I can say is that, if you have short hair, this is a great great product for a messed up look, which doesn't endup looking greasy or wet. The only problem is the hold of the product, I felt at this price a stronger hold would have been included, but I find the hold generally wears thin after a few hours. With longer hair however, this fiber is far ...

Advantages: It works and it comes off your fingers easily Disadvantages: Expensive
American Crew's 'Fiber' is, according to the lid, a 'pliable moulding creme'. Most blokes will find its effects and texture fairly reminiscent of hairwax. Like wax it is best for fairly short hairstyles - it won't hold up spikes, but it does do a very good job of keeping carefully tousled short hair in order. More Jamie Theakston than Freddie Ljungberg, then. A big plus of the product though, is that it actually comes of your fingers after use really ...

Advantages: Great Value for Money Disadvantages: none
I have been using this for 5 years now and won't use anything else. I have medium length, coarse hair and have tried countless different products before finding this one. All of the hair products I tried were either two greasy and soaked straight into my hair giving no hold or too sticky creating an unnatural look. Fibre is a great product it is thick so you only need a tiny amount and when you rub it into your hair it gives it a matte texture with ... ...the surfer look then this is for you. In fact it is quite versatile I style my hair in a smarter style for my job and it works just as well.
It doesn't create any flakes or white residue and your hair will still feel natural. Its smell is inoffensive and not overpowering unlike some that smell heavily perfumed.
Although it’s slightly more expensive than other brands it will take you months to use it all so it’s definitely value for money.
My advice ...
