It's been an again off again affair with me. Have tried several over the years but never consistent. Lately though these have been in a steady rotation and I am enjoying a lot...

Any love for pomade....

So I have a few pomades I use, but then there is the story with the one I used that I literally could not wash out so I ended up with dawn dish soap and olive oil in the shower trying to get it out of my hair and kept slipping! IT was a mess.
I want an easy to wash out pomade with decent shine.
Lately my go to has been Groom and Clean

I really prefer oil based pomades. This is my only tub of Rumble 59. It's great stuff. I have a few other brands in my closet that I'll add later.
Probably oil based. There are a few oil based that are a lot easier to wash out, but water based is so much easier to apply and wash out.

my favorite of the bunch. Rumble 59 has good hold for me and washes out just fine. Haven't had to resort to dish soap yet. Though I do keep my application fairly "thin". Works for me....

With my pompadour, I am a daily pomade user!!! I do like the Schmiere products, but have personally become an exclusive Reuzel pomade user for the past few years. I have a complement of both grease based and water based Reuzel pomades that I mix up for desired levels of hold, shine, humidity resistance, etc. My barber stocks the entire Reuzel line (including my Reuzel aftershave!) so it's an easy choice for me.

@Cvargo they sell a shampoo as well for that kind of problem. I grabbed some in an order. I'll let you know if it works. Here's the link:Schmier Ex Shampoo | Made in Germany - Official Rumble59 Shop for Jeans, Jackets & Clothing
I have super curly hair. I still get the Superman curl with it, though.

....chrome it just sounds cooler. I keep mine short not buzz short.For me definitely use more grease when its shorter. Use it sparingly I've noticed with longer hair...

I'll try to remember to post a picture. Paul Mitchell is my favorite.

I will check them out thanks
I have used Reuzel before and Prospectors. I mostly use Suavecito, mostly because you get a good value for it. I mostly buy their seasonal scents. There is a barber near by that sells Reuzel that I just learned about...so I am thinking of switching back.

I have a sensitive scalp. (It cries easily during Chick Flicks!) It is particularly bad in the winter. The Tea tree special WAX is absolutely wonderful.
On a side note: PM special tea tree shampoo is pretty great stuff. I started using it in my salon, then I started at home. I had something weird going on with the skin around my eyes/eyelids. I started washing my face in the shower, really scrubbing around my eyes. Leaving the shampoo on my scalp awhile. Cleared up my issues COMPLETELY that had been dogging me FOR YEARS. So yeah, I'm a convert, lol. My clients loved the stuff as well. I'm sure you can buy the shampoo at chain grocery stores, not sure about the styling wax. I NEVER used a Paul Mitchell product that disappointed me.
