Cock Grease – Rooster Rocking Results

I know!  Hilarious name, right?!  This pomades comes to us from Japan.  The brand name just made me laugh and the slogans on the lid sold me.  I told myself that even if the pomade didn’t turn out the jar alone would be a talking piece. Something to note, there are two different pomades outRead more

HEADGEAR Molding Mud – Something to get dirty about

As part of my regular visit to OBSCO, I picked up a jar of HEADGEAR Molding Mud. Some months back I had tried the HEADGEAR Memory Glue thinking it was a pomade but it turned out to be a gel.  For a gel it was a good product, but it wasn’t a pomade.  During thisRead more

American Crew – Power Cleanser and Fiber duo
