My DH is low low low hair maintenance and refused product for ages. I got him using Aveda Control Paste pomade and it works great for mild hold, taming, but isn't sticky and doesn't look greasy or shiny like gel.
The other option would be KMS Hair Play Dry Wax. It's an aerosol spray. I use it on my bob length hair to tame fly aways and give it a bit of a dirty second day hair feel. It won't hold a style in place but gives it a little extra something so it's not just flopping in the breeze!

Have had great improvement or total elimination of: migraines, bloating/distention, heartburn, cystic acne, canker sores, bleeding gums, eczema on elbows, dry skin and scalp, muscle cramps, PMS, hair loss, heart palpitations, fatigue. I'm amazed.
