I guess this is the new "hair" thread

[Fuck off.]

So I have been using Murray's and Royal Crown for a while now, but neither seem to hold my hair after a few hours. Can anyone recomend something a bit stronger?

you using what now? keep it shaved

[Fuck off.]

No way, did that for ever, trying something new well it's been a year but none the less.

Murrays cant hold your hair? How long is it?

I'm a layrite fan personally.

when its hot out nothing will hold. its just gonna melt. You can hit it with a shot of hairspray to help, though. I did the murrays (ultra light in the winter, regular in the summer) for a few years, got tired of feeling greasy all the time, and staining pillow cases. Believe it or not Axe makes a water based pomade that you can get anywhere for under $6.

[Jared!]

How have you used murrays and royal crown? Those are at two opposite ends of the spectrum.

[nooeydee]

my boyfriend used a bunch of shit, murrays, layrite, la bella, and royal crown. you may also need to reshape the cut,if it's not holding, \ so go get a trim.

I bought this recently because I was out of layrite and had a hot date that night. It was pretty good. Held up for maybe 5 hours, wasn't too "thinning" like some cheap pomades, and washed out great as expected.

[Fuck off.]

My hair is 6-8inches on the top, and like a 3 on the sides faded. I use Murray's once a week and then I just throw in some Royal Crown to tame a few strays.

human excrement.

OP; post a picture of your hair?

fuck it, can we just get another hair thread?

murrays works wonders for me, and I'm all the way down south. Not sure why it wouldn't keep up for you.

[cheap women]

i use a "styling cream" made by the crew. it's the middle strength, my hair is very uncooperative, and i live in the humid south and i have no problems with it. i just think it smells like a funeral home, but everyone else says after shave. it was $8 at a beauty supply store.

[SHUT UP]

If murrays doesn't hold it, i don't know what will. I had to stop using murrays because it was TOO thick and had TOO much hold. I use that crew shit from walmart.

[givemestrength]

wash your hair once a week. stop using pomade. problem solved.

[TobiasFL]

wash your hair once a week. stop using pomade. problem solved.

Or less than that, if you aren't sweating on a constant basis. Your hair will be much healthier, won't smell, and you won't have overly dry hair all the time. Still use a bit of it myself, though.

I live in Central Arkansas, it was 105 yesterday so as soon as I step outside my head instantly starts sweating. I was my hair something like every third day. I usually throw some pomade in on the first day after washing.

[mickyL]

I used to use American Crew pomade with a little bit of Murray's and some fiber paste as a base. Perfect hold until it got hot out.

Don't just say it.Do it.

Posting for the answers

[henners]

i like the fudge range of hair products. not really pomade mind.

[southshoreconor]

I only recently started doing my hair, but I like this stuff. I ran out and have been using murrays for a few weeks and I think its a bit too strong. I have really thick hair, about 4 inches on top.

[theXdXman]

i use American Crew and then put a little sprinkle of hairspray. holds my shit pretty well. yes, i do mean my turds.

[TheWerewolfandMe]

Murrys holds for me anytime is isn't 100 degrees outside, nothing holds in the summer heat.

[Fuck off.]

exactly why i am getting a cut today, it has been steadily 105 for the past three weeks...

[Duke Silver]

OP should change the thread title back to pomade so people looking for something to hate stay out? Just a thought.

Also, I'm in the market for something new to hold my hair. Until like a year ago I used to just buzz my head, then I started parting it once I got a real job (read: office, not necessarily real). I've been using Brylcreem since, and it's perfect for the first few hours then it starts to give up.

I want to try that Three Flowers stuff (Fuck Off: you can get it at like any Duane Reade/Pharmacy with a larger selection), but my only question is: is it real sticky? I don't want my hair feeling like a bukake party.

[Fuck off.]

Every barber I go to tells me how thick my hair is on top.

[Duke Silver]

My hair is thick from my scalp to my ass.

[derekyorktown]

fuck it, i'll be the first...



Axe pomade with a shot of super hold hairspray, lasts all day and can reactivate it in the morning with a splash of hot water and a touch up with another dab of grease.

[illiam]

what are some good water based pomades? i've been thinking about starting to use products in my hair but i don't want thick grease runnin down my face when i sweat

[Eric Nicholas]

Are there any convenient places to purchase layrite? I am curious to try it, but I do not want to go on a scavenger hunt for it.

i get it at the grocery store

[irongreek]

someone give some tips on dry hair. i condition my hair and it still comes out dry as hell, no matter what the weather.

[Fucking Hero]

Haven't really used anything else, stuff works. Need to get a haircut so I can use it again.

[Brett SD]

How many times must I tell you mooks? Murrays + La Bella #9.

Layrite is just too expensive to even deal with. You're essentially buying a name, not a product.

[Ian Low]

OP, I just spent a second wondering how anybody would style their hair with Crown Royal before I re-read that.

Hahaha.

On the real though Royal Crown is just straight up grease. You'd be better off lubricating an engine with it.

Its been a long arduous process growing my hair back out again. Instantly regretted shaving my head. Its just about long enough now that I can get my cut back at the barber this weekend.

[permafaust]

im moving from having a shaved head for 4 years to attempting to do something like this. i just cant imagine how to actually do it for some reason, i guess its hard to explain how i feel about it. im not sure how to get a proper pomp.

im working on growing my hair out and im going to try it out and see..


ill definitely be following this thread closely, can anyone give any tips? and what do i ask for at the barber?
