pomade appreciation

[popeyejawns]

today i got a cut at hawleywood's in long beach. overall i had a great first experience. the shop has a lot of beer and a lot of pictures of phat pussies. i decided to keep the top long with the sides and the back tight and tapered. they also carry their own in-store pomade that is really good. you can buy it at the store or order it. definitely recommended.

[stuntastic]

Clean up that part, and you're good to go.

[entropy kid]

Still exercising since I didn't have a decent part in ages.

I don't know how folks take these overhead shots. Took me about ten gos to get one that showed remotely what I wanted.

[stuntastic]

Very sharp part you got goin on. If you ever slicked your hairs down, you'd have a very Mad Men esque hair. Previous seasons.

And yeah, getting hair shots are the fuckin worst. Whether it's trying it yourself, or trying to have someone capture the image the way you want your hair to look.

to add to the water soluble :

hold fast

suavecito

i've tried suavecito a couple of times, its good stuff, good scent and holds well for a water soluble.

[stuntastic]

I tried emailing Suavacito a month or two ago trying to order, fuckers suck at replying.

Them, Murray's, Dapper Dan, and Cockgrease need to fuckin check and answer their emails sometime.

[XXXL]

yeah i was trying to inquire on wholesale for all them brands except dapper, and they dont reply whatsoever, if you want some suavecito i can pick some up the next time i go to get my hair cut, they got some.

What's the best easily available pomade in the UK anyone know? Seems a lot aren't readily purchasable here.

[stuntastic]

^ Black and White is really popular in the UK. It seems to be more readily available there, than here in the states. As far as I've been able to see, anyways.

Same as Sweet Georgia Brown, I'm pretty sure it's readily available there too.

Stuff like Layrite, Suavacito, Grant's, etc etc is all U.S. made. So chances of a stockist in the UK or anywhere outside of the U.S. for that matter, is gonna be very slim to none.

Cool.

I'm definitely interested, so hit me up with the price and such. Is there any other brand you can get locally? Let me know, there are still a shit ton of other pomades I wanna try out.

[AntiHero84]

I'm growing my hair out and want to move away from the American Crew pomade, but I don't want to take the plunge with something like Murray's just yet.

Any suggestions for something water-soluble and reasonably priced?

[entropy kid]

Layrite might be your solution, depending on what's a reasonable price for you.

Thanks, I'll have to try that out. I think I found some info on Stuntastic's blog about Layrite too. Looks like I'll have to make some inquiries at my local barbershop.

wow your collection has grown!!!!

let me know if you still need those other water based ones? i dont remember the brands you needed, but the shop i go to has a pretty good selection

fuck a proxy fee

[stuntastic]

Grown and is still growing.

I'll hit you up with a PM in a bit.

Some of the newer water based pomade brands have shitty customer service, so there's a few that I won't give them any publicity.

But, there's the few that I still need to try out.

[conqueror]

i can't figure out if my hair looks better with pomade or without.

[XXXL]

i've been using layrite exclusively for the past few months

and i just recently got some murray's. after reading your post about it, i'm not sure if i want greasy pillows, jan

haha

greasy pillows wont be too much of an issue.

i can't figure out if my hair looks better with pomade or without.

post a pic!

Installed some corner shelving for the pomade. Hell, takes up too much space, might as well utilize the corners.

And got a care package from a pomade brand out of Germany!

Whatever, be upside down then, pic...

[stuntastic]

A lot more has since been added...

[jwsach]

holy crap stunt. u have any recommendations for straight long asian hair, stuff at a reasonable price, not too gunky, and easily available?

[renski]

Jan you try the monkey brains stuff? Looks like labella (water based) but scented. I'm surprised I haven't seen a brylcreem review.

[stuntastic]

jwsach: What kind of styling do you do?

renski: I did and I dig it. It's cheap as hell and works just as good as Layrite. The only downside, is that it leaves a slight film on your hair, as opposed to other water soluble gel pomades, that go out with just water. This stuff, you'll need to lightly shampoo it out. But overall, it's a great product. If you find it at $4 for buy 1 get 1 free, you couldn't beat that with an ugly stick!

[stuntastic]

BTW, giving away some Grant's Golden Brand pomade.

www.therebelrouser.com and enter my giveaway. It's free pomade that's expensive! WHY THE FUCK NOT!?!

[jwsach]

tryna put my longish hair straight back, mostly neat while a little messy if that makes sense, cool blog btw

[stuntastic]

If you don't mind the non-washable stuff, check out Dax Wave & Groom. I've found that it sames my hair pretty well. It's on the stronger side, along with Murray's Superior, but it doesn't leave a weird film on your hair like Murray's does. It's my preferred alternative.

You don't need to use a whole lot, so you could potentially make a can go a loooong way. Blow dry it, to melt it down and you should get your hair to do what you want.

[jwsach]

thanks buddy

[stuntastic]

I'm sure someone can appreciate this...

[entropy kid]

Moving to SE-Asia for a spell in winter. Any recommendations for real wiry curly blond hair? Usually I'm using Black and White as a base with a top layer of Cock grease but that didn't work out too well in hot humid weather.

[BearCousin]

anyone got pointers on how to get murrays pomade off of your hands without scraping the fuck out of them with a towel for 20 minutes?
