Brooklyn Grooming Old School Pomade

This is a high quality pomade that does not have that petroleum jelly feel to it. I find it has a light to moderate hold. However, the tin at 2oz is way too small for the the price. At 4oz it might be reasonable. I would definitely reorder at 1/2 the price or twice the quanity. Until then I will enjoy what I have and move on to better value pomades.

I really wanted to like this pomade because I actually really like Brooklyn Grooming products. I own the beard oil and the face serum and both work really well. With that being said the pomade is so so at best. I dont even know if I would classify it as a pomade but more of a hard tacky wax. This "pomade" is so hard that I had to initially break and mash it up and then scrape it with the back of my thumb nail. Once I did that I had to really make sure that I warmed it up in my hands to get it evenly through my hair. I suppose it was ok once applied but I still feel like it could be better. I feel like if the pomade had a lighter pliability and wasnt so hard it would be a lot better. The scent is a light cedar and has a light low gloss finish and hold. I would say that if you are looking for an alternative to high gloss high hold pomades this might be it, but for it's steep price and smaller size I feel like there are better products out there.
