Advanced Hair Pomade (100 grams) - Damage Free Hair Styling For Daily Use

This pomade is excellent! It’s water based, so it washes out effortlessly without leaving residue. The hold is strong but natural, and styling is super easy. The only downside is that one tub doesn’t last very long if used frequently because of its texture. Overall, great quality and performance, just wish the tub lasted longer.

I like the smell and it holds the hair well. I noticed the hair getting dry sometimes (not sure of it is because of the cream), but i use a little coconut oil before applying this. Faced no issues so far and it works well.

Amazing product for hair

Brought this and just so good and happy with this product this exactly does it job its non greasy and long hold and good in smell

Water based, non-sticky, non-itchy Not that strong hold but already mentioned in the details.

It’s brilliant. Totally love this product. Gives the right amount of hold, just how I like it. Unlike synthetic feel gels, it just stays the right amount of time, and then washes off easily in shower. Hand-feel, light refreshing smell - both awesome. Would keep using this product till I have hair. :)

I ordered this product specifically because it advertised "no gunk, greasiness, and stickiness," but it is the exact opposite. Upon application, it feels heavy, extremely greasy, and tacky. It completely fails to deliver on its primary marketing promise. Very disappointing product—do not recommend if you are looking for a lightweight or non-sticky formula.
