## Description

Product Description Layrite Original Pommade Works best for Fine to medium thick hair. Short to medium lengths Classic collated styles. Messy Wet Looks Holds like wax, washes like gel A versatile water-based pomade that lasts all day, yet washes out easily with water. Insider tips When hair is damp, apply Layrite Grooming Spray as a primer to get the most out of your pomade. Has the hold, control and shine of a gel, but won't dry out, flake or dry out your hair. How to use Remember: the drier the hair, the higher the hold! 1. Apply a small amount to palms. 2. Distribute evenly through damp or dry hair and style as desired. The drier the hair, the higher the hold. 3. Use sparingly and add more. 4. Wet comb or fingers and run through hair to restyle. 5. Rinses off easily with just water. Layrite Grooming Products for Men About Layrite Layrite was founded in 1999 by the talented and charismatic Donnie Hawley. Having his technique hampered by petroleum-based products, Donnie worked hard to find a solution. The end result was a water-soluble pomade formulated to "hold like wax and wash like gel." After one of Donnie's clients said his pomade was the only product that made his hair straight, a brand was born. An American original since 1999 For barbers by barbers We are the barber's choice. A range of men's grooming products created for connoisseurs. Because Layrite was created by a barber, not a scientist. Donnie Hawley has spent his entire career developing some of the finest men's grooming products available on the market today.

Review: Great stuff for strong hold without greasy look - I'd been using Uppercut Deluxe matte pomade until I tried this Layrite. I want a good hold without the greasy wet look of most strong pomade. So the Uppercut matte was my favourite, however I live near the coast and it gets windy, which the matte pomade just moved and volumised in the wind so I looked like I'd been dragged through a bush! Enter Layrite Strong. Fabulous hold, great for styling and still aleasy to comb without knotting, is slightly shinier than the matte pomade but even using a fair bit, it doesn't look greasy. Now my hair stays in place in the wind! 😁 Smells lovely too without being too pungent. Great stuff. New favourite.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it go firm/crunchy to touch or does it stay softer like a wax? Which layrite pomade gives the least hardened finish?**
A: I buy this product for my grandson. 
His hair has always been his pride and joy. 
He uses ‘pomade original’ 
I know for a fact this never leaves his hair hard or crunchy. It holds his hair all day and always looks natural. 
The reason I buy it, is because I spoil him. He has lots of hair products. But this on is his favourite.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does the job
*by A***R on 7 January 2026*

Very good pomade for slik back

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for short think hair
*by M***N on 25 June 2019*

I have been a user of the red DAX wax for many many years and have tried so many different hair products and have always gone back to DAX because it seems to be the best hold for my hair. But, I live in Dubai and during the summer months temperatures can reach 50c so DAX being a wax gets very soft in the heat. I tried using gels but because my hair has a slight curl to it the gel doesn't pull and hold my hair straight like DAX does. Another problem with DAX, being petroleum based they have recently changed the smell of it so its starting to smell like engine oil :-( So, I have hunted high and low for a water based product that stays firm in the heat, washes out easily and also one that smells great..... FINALLY... for me.. a product that does what it says on the tin!!!! This really is like putting wax in your hair, with the same hold as gel.... and washes out easily. My only tip is to make sure your hair is almost dry and it works better then (probably not getting watered down). I towel dry my hair and that seems to be enough. Will for sure be stocking up with this product!! FANTASTIC !!!
