Pomade
What is pomade?
Pommade is a hairstyling product that provides the user with long-lasting hold and a healthy shine. There are different types of pomade for various hair types and hairstyles.
Types of pomade
Over the past centuries, barbers and hairstylists have made various types of pomade to meet the needs of their clients. It is best to choose a pomade that suits the hairstyle you want and the type of hair you have.
Oil-based ointment
The beauty of oil-based pomade is that the "greasiness" depends on how much you dare to use. Despite its name, oil-based hair pomade is made from petroleum jelly. This is the ingredient that gives your hair a high shine.
Although petroleum jelly does not hydrate your hair, it does create a protective layer. This layer locks in moisture and reduces the formation of split ends. This type of hair pomade can also be used to straighten curly hair.
Not only does it give a healthy shine to your mane. It is also the best option for men who want to restyle their hair throughout the day. Because this pomade does not dry out, you can run a comb through your hair for a fresh look whenever you feel like it.
The disadvantage of petroleum-based pomade is that it may require multiple washes to remove it - and shampoo is usually not a solution.
Oil-based pomade is an excellent option for sleek hairstyles, such as the duck-tail or pompadour.
Water-based ointment
Hair pomade based on water is an excellent solution for the stickiness of oil-based pomade. This water-soluble formula can be washed out in just one shower.
Water dries quickly, however. And once it dries, you better like it, because if you're not satisfied, you'll have to wash and style it again.
Although water-based pomade offers a strong hold, it cannot be easily restyled throughout the day. This inflexibility can cause problems on windy days. And if it rains, you can forget about styling.
Water-based hair pomade is best applied to slicked-back hair and comb-overs, as the hold is strong enough to support longer hairstyles.
Light, Medium, Strong Hold: what is the difference?
When we talk about the strength of a hair product, we refer to the "holding power." The holding power is divided into light, medium, and strong (or maximum) hold.
Light
A light hold means that your hair pomade cares for and positions your hair, but it can still move a bit. Your hair can still flutter in the wind, but it won't become frizzy and tangled (unless that's the look you're going for).
Medium
Medium hold allows some movement but keeps your hair more or less in place. Medium hold pomade is great for adding texture.
Strong
Strong hold hair pomade is ideal for men who want to keep their look the same all day long, whether it's raining or sunny. After all, you want your hair to fall a certain way – usually in the direction of gravity. For high comb-overs and tall greasy quiffs, you need a strong hair pomade that can hold your hair in an unnatural upward position.
The question is: which hair pomade is suitable for you? The answer ultimately depends on your hair type and the style you want to present. Only you can decide.
