I might be the non vegan ingredient.
Mildly Interesting
This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.
I wouldn't even be surprised if this is just a shift in marketing. The "Vegan" label, in particular, has fallen out of style as more and more men become obsessed with meat-based diets.
Damn, I guess you will have to find a new hair product to eat.
Poor matt
I'm the non vegan ingredient.
Door mat

Floormat
You're Matt
Who is Matt and why did they turn him into paste for the attention of surfers?
"Now made with actual ~~bitch~~ beach boys!!"
It looks like the 91% natural ingredients version has benzyl alcohol as a preservative which is typically synthetically derived and in my experience can drastically shift the bio-based ratio.
As far as I can see, the rest of the ingredients are the same, but the sourcing of those ingredients could be different which could also shift the naturally derived percentage.
"Matt" paste? Isn't it "matte" or am I taking crazy pills again?
Edit: What the fuck... It's spelled differently in the UK, the US, and Canada (where I'm from). It's matte in Canada, mat in US, and matt in the UK.

Now I'm not saying anything, but I dated a Matt, and he did produce a lot of paste... I'd have to run the numbers to see if it's viable for mass-production though.
USA here- matte
Thirding the notion that it's definitely not "mat" in the US. A mat is something you put on the ground, Matt is my cousin's ex-fiance, and matte is a surface finish with little to no shine.
Really don't know what people say English is hard to learn, we use the same word for so many things that there's fewer words to learn /s
Why waste time say lots words when few words do trick?
It’s matte in the US. I think the manufacturer is just being silly
From the UK. I've never seen matte spelled as matt. CA, UK and AU are generally pretty close with spelling, whereas the US is usually off doing its own thing. It's a similar thing to blonde and blond.
Blonde = female; blond = male
But that's the french's fault.
What if they're non-binary?
Blondə
Blondx
I thought it was blond = hair colour and blonde = person with blond hair.
Pretty sure it's matte in the US, too
Seconded. Literally have never seen it spelled mat.
Colour me surprised, at least you greybeards have honour enough to spell some words correct.
It's no longer labeled vegan. A lot of producers actively avoid the label, despite the fact that the Vegan Society would provide their stamp of approval. I've heard somewhere putting it on your product lowers sales. All this to say, are you certain it's actually not vegan anymore?
Definitely a thing. Vegan can be hidden somewhere on some products, or they might use different language.
That's interesting! I also wonder if its a legal shielding technique to abandon the "vegan" label in case one of their upstream suppliers changes without notifying the manufacturer. If you never claim it to be vegan, you've in no danger of violation.
Someone said the non vegan version has bee wax in it.
