- ›Damp hair, warm product between palms, apply back-to-front.

Thick hair has weight. That weight fights your styling. The right pomade holds without turning grease-heavy.
The three specs
- ›Water-based (washes out with water, doesn't build up).
- ›Medium-to-strong hold (thick hair needs the grip).
- ›Satin or matte finish (shine amplifies thickness in a bad way).
Application
Towel-dried hair (damp, not wet). Nickel-sized in the palm. Warm it out until translucent. Apply back to front, root to tip. Style with fingers or a comb.
Hair Pomade — medium hold, satin finish, water-soluble.
