Any love for pomade....

I know my thread is much older but I am starting it back up again if you are still interested in pomades

A Wild West Pomade Roundup!

One of the biggest things this community has gotten me into, besides all the shaving necessities, is the value and performance of a good pomade! Since I have gotten deep into this rabbit hole, I thought it would be a good idea to start this thread, where I can share my impressions of the...

Yes! Reuzel is the ONLY brand of pomade I use for my pompadour!
I prefer the Gray Extreme Hold Matte, but it is ALL good stuff!

PEACE,

There is the pink, blue , and white. Different holds but all of those are water based and soluble. The black is mineral oil based.

It’s easy. 1st Olive oil. Then add dawn dishwashing liquid, rinse… all pomade will be gone then shampoo and condition. Easy peasy

Anyway you could just get it as a collector item like I did this

Don't you remember the ONE time I tried oil based pomade, and then ALMOST died in the shower trying to get it out of my hair.

I stick to water based

I have the Holy Black Grease gun pomade, it's not a lot of fun to use and you have to wash your hair a couple of times for it to come out!

Oh I know. You told me the same thing... so I got back into the shower with olive oil and dawn soap. And that's when I almost died in the shower. I think you were secretly trying to kill me.

I imagine that you turned the tub into a slip-n-slide and had to wash your hair sitting on your hams.
