What brand of holding Gel can I get that will hold my hair in position but not give me the "wet" look? I am using some Redken Firm grip but I think this stuff is more for someone who wants a spikey doo ;)


TIA

If you put the gel in when your hair is wet, it should retain the wetlook.

I'd say moose. Pommade just makes a lot of peoples hair look greasy, which I suppose makes sense because it's probably petroleum based. I use gel sometimes and don't have a problem. As for foaming pommade, never heard of it.

EDIT: ROFL it does screm metro, but come on, the guy has to look cool.

Well, I don't want Fop, goddamn it! I'm a Dapper Dan man!










Well, it didn't look like a two-horse town, but try finding a decent hair jelly.

Just about any guy that needs to look decent for a job :)
Looking for a job back in 1987 are we?

Uhhh..no....I don't see many guys in offices that DON'T use gel.

The ones that don't either tend to be over 50 and are doing a comb-over, or are stuck in the 70's and have the dreaded middle or side feathered part.

Use pomade.
