Best Stuff Ever
I never write reviews, but this stuff is great. I think its a little odd that it is specifically listed as “men’s” as though only a man would want to create texture with firm hold for their hairstyle.The things I love most about this product are 1) it is completely unscented. I wish more products were unscented because scent sensitivity and allergies are rampant and the world is smelly enough without adding yet another scented product to it. 2) It really adds fantastic texture and has a great firm hold. I have fine hair that is always looking for an excuse to go limp and be flat…this stuff gives me great volume and holds all day with no issues, even in super high heat and humidity. I think the biggest learning curve for me was taking a little, pea sized scoop out and making sure to rub it into my fingertips until there was no more white showing, it was just clear, then apply it to the roots and then the chunks here and there I want to hold and texture. It washes off hands fast and easy with just water and a little soap and it washes out of hair super easy also. I don’t use conditioner in my hair and i do not find this product overly drying at all.I was afraid to order this because I’ve gone through so many products that just don’t work and it’s such a waste, but this stuff is awesome. I’ve ordered it twice now and I’m writing this review because I want this company to stay in business and keep making this fabulous unscented hair goop! If you are someone who has to use unscented products out of necessity- then you probably know how limited the choices are when it comes to hair products and the ones you do find are usually a massive compromise- this one isn’t! It’s really great quality stuff that works perfectly! No compromise! (Maybe this company will start making unscented hairspray that doesn’t suck too!!! 🤞).

Actually does not cause breakouts!
I’m a female, and it’s basically impossible for me to find anything to put in my hair to style it without it causing me to break out. I have ridiculously sensitive skin and am very acne prone. I had little hope when purchasing this product, figuring that it would end up in the product graveyard under my sink with the rest. Well! I wanted to give it a few weeks of frequent use before I called it but I’m 99% sure that this does what it says! It’s also completely unscented which I appreciate. I realize it’s a product intended for much shorter hair than I have, and that’s the reason that it’s very sticky when applying. I’m sure if I had a pixie cut it would be literally perfect for styling my hair. But as it’s literally the only (non-homemade) product that I can put in my hair, I can’t be too choosy. Especially when, after it’s actually in my hair, my hair looks great! It has a slight waxy feel but that is to be expected. It defines my waves, tames frizz, gives me a bit of soft hold and does not seem to build up on my hair. A little goes a long way! I have actually used it on my hair 3 days in a row before washing with great success. I don’t think this would be good for females with super long, straight, fine hair but for me – coarse, wavy, medium length it actually works great! 24 hours after applying the waxy feeling disappears and I’m just left with hair that is soft and more tame. Thanks for making this rare product!

Holds and leaves my hair still feeling like hair
I know it’s marketed to men, but it’s equally good for women. I’m a woman, and I am using this to style my pixie haircut. The medium hold is exactly what I need, and my favorite part is that this is fragrance free. Might not be the best thing if you’re needing an extremely strong hold, but in my opinion, great if you want a medium hold. It keeps my hair in place, but also keeps it still feeling like my hair, not like I’m wearing a plastic helmet on my head. Highly recommend this product!

Good Hold
I especially like that this cream has no fragrance. I study a lot of health information, and the health experts are clear and unequivocal about the dangers of the fragrances in our products. I am a woman and I bought this product after a short haircut gave me a bad case of the “spikes.” My straight hair was sticking up all over like I had a bad case of static electricity. That’s just the way it falls with this short hairdo.This product has good hold but not great hold. I would prefer something stronger, but this was the strongest I could find and it has significantly stronger hold than a gel product I bought. A long time ago I had a hair wax by Jason brand; it had that magnificent hold I need, but I could no longer find it. This is a good enough replacement, and when I need to look good I am pleased to have this. I don’t feel like I am harming my health by using it; the product has a clear, pure feeling. My brain is more important to me than my hair, so that is a priority.

Scent free, non-greasy – love it!!
This is the holy grail of pomade: it doesn’t look greasy, has good hold, and doesn’t weigh down my hair. It has no scent at all (thank you!!). A great product. I have fine strand, thick blond hair – I recommend it for anyone with similar hair. I only wish you sold in Canada so I didn’t have to order across the border!

Didn’t receive the results I desired.
Good product, goes on easily, does the job, but when it dries it becomes hard and sticky. If you are looking for a cream hair spray, this does it. But if you are looking for a cream that stays a cream and is soft and gentle, try something else.

Perfect everyday pomade – clean, no scent, and washes right out
I’ve tried a lot of pomades, and this one just gets it right. It gives light to medium hold without feeling heavy or greasy, and best of all – it’s completely fragrance free. No weird artificial smell lingering all day. It also rinses out easily with just water, leaving zero residue or buildup the next morning. You can tell the formula was made by someone who actually uses this stuff every day. My new go-to.

Great for Sensitive Scalps
I’ve been using the Pomade for a couple of months now, and overall, I’m pleased. The non-scented formula is awesome for anyone who’s sensitive to strong smells, and I love that it’s non-comedogenic—it doesn’t irritate my scalp or skin. The hold is medium-firm, which works well for a natural style without feeling too stiff, though I sometimes need a quick midday touch-up

I’ve been using hair styling products for years but they always cause some degree of acne breakouts on my forehead since I have sensitive skin. Since I bought this pomade, there have been no pimples growing on my skin even after I sweat during the day.The product does its job well by holding your hair, depending on how much you put of course. So far, I really like it.
