Grooming and Hygiene

Nice write up Trick! Ive been using (dont get mad lol) American Crew "fibre" and for the dew i go for it works great. Not a slick or a hard hold but a matte and flexible hold. May have to try one of the ones you suggested for my winter hair cut (semi slick back). Hair still looks good when i take off my toque this way

American Crew has a salon line called d:fi and I've been using their d:struct for years and years. It's also a high hold, low-shine product, but it's a cream instead of a putty and it can be used on longer hair. While most people use it on dry hair, I've found you can get an even more matte look by applying it when towel-dry, letting it dry naturally, and running your fingers through it to get rid of the wet look. It also responds well to blow drying if that's your thing.

@TrickHell nice piece! As stated, been using a beeswax based goop, but not really getting what I want out of it. The Sweet Georgia Brown is likely my next go, as it's more of a grease and aside from Max, has pretty positive reviews for what I'm searching. May search up some Murray's and Royal Crown for a side by side though. Really appreciate everyone's input here

You have the RC Hair Dressing, you should try the RC Mens Pomade, the smell is a little lighter, but the hold and texture is awesome!

TrickHell I can pick up B&W local for under $10, just depends on container size. Almost grabbed some today but between the three purchases thought it enough
JCMx800 it was a toss up there as to which I got. Went with the dressing as it was what TrickHell had provided info on. However at sub $5 I may pick up a can when I collect the Sweet Georgia

hmm just nice this came up. i've been using admiral pomade and mostly uppercut deluxe. but i want more variation as to other pomades i may try? i do prefer something of the water based strong hold types, the only reason why i'm using those two is because i absolutely love the coconut smell.

I used admiral before but have started to use the iron society now. I find it holds better but the smell is more cinnamon-y.

I use a Kent like this one

Can get them bigger aswell. They are sawcut teeth and dont get caught or pull hair like the shitty molded plastic ones -
I gotcha

There are plenty out there, none right?

After searching the Izola fine & dandy combs pictured in the link G provided, it seems those are simply brass plated. This spurred a deeper search and while I can't seem to find a ready made solid brass comb, I did come across someone that makes custom metal combs. The company is Metal Comb Works, to which I've inquired about this one off. Will update once I have details to share
