You want to look your best for that special event or holiday party. Not only should you think about your outfit, your hair is one of the first things everyone will notice—so perfect hairstyles are a must.

Regardless of what hairstyle you go for, one thing is true, it must stay in place all day. No flyaway hairs, frizz or hair falling out of place.

You’ve probably heard about pomades as a great option to style hair and hold it in place all day. They are great for pompous hairstyles with lots of volume as well! And if you’re here, you’re probably wondering what is best for you a pomade or hair wax.

To figure out the best option, we first need to understand what each product is and what sets them apart from each other.

Let’s dive in!

What is a pomade?

If you’re still wondering what a pomade is, they are one of the oldest hair styling products and can be made from different bases including: water, oil, clay or wax.

Through the centuries the product has evolved, but it has remained as a staple for styles that require light to strong hold. Depending on which pomade you choose, the product can add shine to your hair or give you a matte finish.

Most pomades will not harden your hair and will give you the flexibility to restyle your hair throughout the day.

Who should and should not use a pomade?

The good news is, anyone can use a pomade.

If you’re using a high-quality vegan and paraben-free like our Highland Glacial Clay pomade, you will not only see your hair styled to perfection, but will nourish and treat your hair.
