If you’re aiming for a clean, timeless hairstyle that holds its shape without looking stiff or greasy, pomade is the answer. Whether you're trying to master a slick back, side part, or a textured, modern look, understanding how to use pomade can elevate your grooming routine to a new level. At Baronial Grooming Co., we believe grooming should be simple, effective, and deeply rooted in tradition—but with a modern edge.
This in-depth guide covers everything you need to know about pomade: what it is, the different types available, how to apply it properly, and how to make it part of your daily grooming ritual.
Pomade is a hairstyling product that offers a versatile hold and a variety of finishes ranging from high-shine to matte. Originally made with grease or petroleum, modern pomades are often water-based, allowing for easier application, restyling, and washing out. Unlike gels, which can dry out hair and leave it crunchy, pomades are more flexible and offer a natural look with all-day hold.
Baronial Grooming Co.'s Hair Pomade is a water-based formula crafted in small batches. It provides strong yet pliable hold with a natural finish, perfect for the man who values both performance and elegance.
Understanding the differences between pomades helps you choose the right one for your style:
Water-Based Pomade: Easy to apply and rinse out. Offers strong hold and a range of finishes. Ideal for most hair types and modern styling.
Oil-Based Pomade: Offers strong, lasting hold and high shine but can be difficult to wash out. More suitable for classic styles.
Matte Pomade: Great for textured or natural looks. Provides hold without adding shine.
High-Shine Pomade: Perfect for slick, polished styles like a classic side part or pompadour.
Versatile Styling – Pomade works for a variety of hairstyles, from classic to modern.
Flexible Hold – Keeps your hair in place without the stiffness of gel.
Restylable – You can rework your hair throughout the day without reapplying.
Natural Look – Leaves your hair looking well-groomed, not crunchy or overly styled.
Pomade adheres best to clean hair. After washing, towel-dry until your hair is slightly damp. Damp hair allows for easier distribution and shaping.
Begin with a dime-sized amount. Too much product can weigh your hair down, especially if you have fine or thin hair. You can always add more later if needed.
Rub the pomade between your palms to warm it and distribute it evenly. This helps avoid clumping and ensures smooth application.
Work the pomade through your hair from the back to the front. This method helps prevent buildup at the hairline. Use your fingers for a casual, textured look or a comb for something more polished.
Shape your hairstyle with your hands or a comb. Whether you’re going for volume, slickness, or a side part, pomade will give you the control you need. For more volume, comb hair upward and back. For sleekness, comb straight back or create a clean part.
Once styled, let it set for a few minutes. Need touch-ups later in the day? Just wet your fingers and restyle—no need to reapply more product.
For Fine Hair:
Use a small amount of hair pomade to avoid weighing it down.
Consider blow-drying after application for added volume.
For Thick Hair:
You may need a bit more product to achieve control.
Use a comb to distribute the pomade thoroughly.
For Curly or Wavy Hair:
Pomade can help define curls and reduce frizz.
Apply to damp hair and finger-style for best results.
One of the major benefits of water-based pomades, like those from Baronial Grooming Co., is how easily they rinse out. Simply wash your hair with warm water and your usual shampoo. Unlike oil-based pomades, there’s no need for harsh cleansers or repeated washing.
Our pomade isn’t mass-produced. It’s artisan-made in small batches with premium ingredients and a carefully balanced formula that offers:
Strong, All-Day Hold
Natural Finish
Water-Based Formula for easy rinse-out
We designed our pomade for men who want their grooming products to work just as hard as they do—with style and substance.
Q: How much pomade should I use?
Start small (dime-sized) and add more if needed. Too much can make hair heavy or greasy.
Q: Can I use pomade every day?
Absolutely. Just make sure to wash it out regularly to keep your scalp healthy.
Q: Will pomade damage my hair?
No—especially water-based formulas like ours. It offers hold without drying or damaging your hair.
Mastering how to use pomade is a simple way to take your style to the next level. Whether you’re going for a polished boardroom look or something more relaxed for a night out, pomade gives you the flexibility, control, and confidence to express your personal style.
At Baronial Grooming Co., we believe every man deserves grooming products that reflect his commitment to quality. That’s why our pomade is crafted with care—so you can style with confidence, every single day.
