Product Information

In the 1980s, Rockabilly style Rock and Roll and the pompadour had a resurgence and was worn by musicians such as Brian Setzer and Chris Isaak.

Because of its greasy or waxy nature, pomade can last through several washings, although it is easily removed using de-greasers such as high-detergent shampoos, dishwashing liquids, or any shampoos designed for oily hair. For a closer look at some of the vintage tins, we’ve managed to track down, check out our vintage, 1922 gallery. YouTube channels centering around pomades and hair culture center around reviewing different pomades and discussing hair styling tips. There’s a reason why Black and White Wax is still going strong decades later – its original, unchanged pluko formula is versatile and pliable; ideal for sculpting and creating texture for an all-day hold.Popular unorthodox water-based pomades include O'Douds, Shear Revival, Lockharts, and Flagship pomades. The hairstyle is characterized by buzzed or faded sides, and a much longer top which is disconnected from the side hairs. Today's pomades fall under two main categories with some subcategories, the traditional oil-based pomade and the newer water-based and gel pomades.

We’ve since been a staple in British hairstyling and to this day, and continue to enjoy being a part of the Ace Cafes’s annual Brighton Burn Up, Retro Revival. The Pompadour was a cultural phenomenon in the mid-1950s to 1964 and was worn by young actors and those in the new musical genre, Rock and Roll. Some pomade products, such as mustache wax, are marketed for a specific use, while products such as Ultra Sheen, are marketed for specific consumers.Unorthodox water-based pomades mimic the malleable qualities of oil-based pomades while still being able to be easily washed out like a gel pomade. During the 2010s, the style was featured in many popular period movies, especially World War II films, and in shows such as Peaky Blinders. All these products come in various textures and consistencies, and essentially achieve the same effect as either hair wax or pomade.

However, they are generally less malleable and can only be restyled during the day by wetting the hair. From the sleek styling of the ’30s to the quiffs of the ’70s, follow us through the decades, with our historical pluko style guides. The English word pomade derives from French pommade, itself from Italian pomata, from pomo (" apple") and -ata, used to form related nouns. The reemergence of popular pomade use coincides with the rise in popularity of the disconnected undercut hairstyle. Traditionally, the difference between hair wax and pomade was that pomade gave the hair a slicker, shinier appearance, while wax gave a looser, more texturized and matte finish.G. pomades, straight from Memphis, ever-present during the rise of rock and roll and the hairstyles that came with the music. The heavy hold and slick look of pomade is very well suited to control the long hair of most undercut styles. From creating on trend looks straight from the catwalk or emulating the cool styles directly from the streets, the list is endless. We helped music fans recreate the styles of the time sported by their favourite artists and musicians. Other English names for the ointment, drink, and hair treatment are pomate and pomatum from pomatum, the Medieval Latin form of the same name.
