Pomade

[Francorelli]

I used Brylcreem and Black & White Pluko 20 years back when I sported a barnet that required it.
The past 10 years have seen self-barbered clipper length hair, but I grew it out last year for a change, and tried some different pomades.

Layrite is appealing. It has a great scent and cool packaging. But it basically performs like a gel - washes out easily, but dries sticky with no shine. I consider it an overrated and over priced product.

Nu Nile is nice. But like all oil-based pomades, is a bitch to wash out.

I'm back to clipper length hair now.

I use a pomade called Black & White (lite) it's from the USA but available either online or at Superdrug.

A wonderful coconut scent and decent holding properties, not overly greasy either. I used to use either blue or purple (I am colourblind, beware ) Dax but this is the best option for me now.

I've got some Black & White Pluko on order so looking forward to have a go with it.

I've used Black & White since the 80's, on and off. It really does the business.

Good to read, Gentlemen. Ta muckle.

Wasn't it Black & White which E Presley slicked his DA back with whilst scented with original Brut, the essence of man ? Just how much Eau de Testosterone can any one guy apply.

If it smells like Vaseline and is called Short & Neat, then it's the blue Dax I use it too, nice shine, very easy to apply but very light hold.

I use the Red Dax on my tache. "Wave and Groom", I think it's called.

Got lanolin in it, so you know it's good.

I use that too I use a dab of Red and a dab of Blue to get extra hold over the blues great shine. Red on its own can be brutal on the barnet when combing through.

Agree, but there is also another in a purple tin which I quite like.

Apologies if this has already been mentioned (I'm far too bloody lazy to re-read the entire thread...) but have any of you good chaps used Morgan's pomades/hair products? Made in Blighty, don't you know, what, what!

P.S. I note we've gone all blue and I rather like it!
