Before getting into the pomade itself, I want to make a point about hemp oil. Hemp oil is a direct gift from the hair Gods. Anyone with hair loss, dry scalp and damaged hair should look it up.

OK point made! Although there is hemp oil in here, this is still a water based pomade. That said, the pomade has an authentic thick feel that is typical of those original oil-greased pomades. I was even caught a little off guard and double checked the ingredient list to confirm that this was a water based or water soluble product. It goes in the hair very much like those older pomades making it a very easy product to work with. That being the case I was a little concerned that I might not find the much needed “hold” and commitment my hair needs. Usually with warmer weather and the natural heat produced by our body it’s enough to relax oil pomades to the point where things don’t hold up. Surprise-surprise! This is turning out to be a very lovely product with real hold.

Here is the rating on a scale of 1 to 5 where 5 is a perfect score and/or level of shine:

Hold: 4
Shine: 4
Texture: 5
Feel in hair: 5+
Facility to wash out: 5

The pomade is discreetly scented with what reminds me of that nice Asian lychee fruit with perhaps a touch of banana.
