Hair cuts
I've been sporting the slick look for a number of years now and can't see going back to the dry look. I'm using Royal Crown Pomade (not the Hair Dressing) and it does a great job getting a super wet shiny look. Works great for pomps or side parted styles. I wear a side parted pomp most of the...- berwynguy

Like the vintage 40s/50s-early 60s look - the Don Draper style.

Brylcreem
Great discovery with hair tonic I've seen a few posts where guys have recommended Vitalis hair tonic. I tried it awhile back and never really liked it for it's aroma. However, I thought I'd give it another try - it has been awhile. SO, I went to Walgreens and got a bottle. This time I used it...- berwynguy

Brylcreem
Still using Brylcreem I have not stopped using brylcreem since buying my first tube a few years back. The stuff is great. I'm recentl back to sporting the pomp with a side part these days - had a change in jobs so could be a bit more fun with the hair style. Don't get me wrong, I do like the...- berwynguy

Pomade
prefer old school products I've tried these 'SALON' hair products and just don't care for them. Personal preference I guess. In the 80s I tried Mousse - yuck, that was like putting glue in your hair. Gel, makes hair hard and like having plastic in your hair. I like my hair to be wet, glossy...- berwynguy

Pomade
My favorites My daily routine is to use brylcreem. I like the the wet look and control it gives. I usually wear it parted on the side, and having hair wet with brylcreem makes it easy to get a super straight side part that I like. I've also found that if you want stronger, tighter hold...- berwynguy

Brylcreem
Getting the wetlook - use brylcreem A "dab" is not a very clearcut amount is it? For me, I use about a US Quater coin size dollop, and sometimes more if I really want it wet looking. The 'little dab' is a nice slogan, but I've found you really need to use enough to get the wet look right...- berwynguy

Hair Tonic
Hair tonic tip When using a liquid hair tonic, I apply it to dry hair. You can apply just a little for very very light control, or apply enough to thouroughly saturate the hair making it wet if you want a classic wetlook style. You can then comb it into place, or if you're like me, either add...- berwynguy

Hair Tonic
my favorites I usually use Pomade (American Greaser Supply brand 40wt), Brylcreem, Groom&Clean, or combo of them. If I really want it to shine with a very wet look, I'll add some Vitalis or Luck Tiger with Oil. Usually the pomade or brylcreem is my daily routine. Both are inexpensive and do a...- berwynguy

Pomade
Received new supply of AGS Hair Grease I'm a big fan of American Greaser Supply 40wt Pomade. This stuff is real greaser pomade - not a pansy ass gel or fake wax. Has plenty of good greasing grease. Very pleasant mild aroma - not vanilla, coconut, or any other fruit salad fragrance - just a mild...- berwynguy

Hair cuts
Haircut journey Well here it is August, end of summer coming soon, so I've started the long journey back to letting my hair grow out so I can get enough length to brylcreem a nice pomp. Got my last #1.5 up the sides and #4 on top for the season last weekend. Been slicking what I have on top...- berwynguy

Pomade
Men's Hairstyle Section The forum should really have a section devoted to men's hair. There's one for the ladies, but I see posts in various sections about mens hair - no common place. I'd like to see how you guys wear your hair - I'm looking for options to try.- berwynguy

Pomade
American Greaser Supply, Groom & Clean, Brylcreem I use Brylcreem Original (not gel) for everyday use, but also like American Greaser Pomade. Brylcreem washes out easier, but has lighter hold. If I apply a combo of AGS and brylcreem I get the best hold and super slick shine. I have to use...- berwynguy
