  • @loverface1289
    @loverface1289 11 лет назад

    Is Murray's safe to use if it's your first time ever using any pomade product? I've been watching reviews about it on youtube and some people say it's hard to get out of your hair and i was just wondering.

  • @SSUnitedStates52
    @SSUnitedStates52 11 лет назад +5

    For anyone struggling to pull this off. The murrays is VERY sensitive to heat.. If your house is colder you gotta stick an electric heater in your bathroom or else you will just break teeth off of your comb and tear your hair out. Also the first few times I really had to fight it., It wanted to curl the wrong way. Just be persistent and next time the hair will start to develop those curls and fall into place easier.

    Hey! My hair seems to be somewhat the same length as yours (I can't really tell tho because mine's straight), but do you by chance remember what the measurements were? I'm going to be danny for a school thing and everytime I try to do the first side curl, it's just way too long and I can't overlap them. Thanks!

    how long did it take to grow your hair like that in the beginning ? i got same hair type as you , wavy ,but my hair is short , my dream is to grow it to your length :D i have one more question does hair grow naturally in to that style or do you have to comb it in to that style at 0:13

  • @fidely09
    @fidely09 9 лет назад +16

    So sick bro bro I'm starting to grow out my hair to do this style and you are the only video on RUclips that does it they way I want it to look.. Everyone else does a pompadour and not the trunk my hair is way shorter than yours but at least now I have an idea on how much to grow it Thanks

    any of the axe products strong spiker and for very thick hair you could use axe pomade its not too oily make sure you wash your hair before you use it

  • @jay_thedog_man5169
    @jay_thedog_man5169 7 лет назад

    Love the Suicidal on the wall. My hair super curly so this style of pomp would probably be better for me. But my bangs are down to my chin cause I go for the rockabilly look. It looks sick though.

  • @MrRomanM
    @MrRomanM 11 лет назад +2

    First time I used pomade I didnt know it didnt wash out haha. They way I got it out was by putting a lot of conditioner in my hair, letting it settle for an hour or so, then washing it out with hot water - as hot as my head could take it and it pretty much came out eventually. I had to repeat the process about another 2 - 3 times though. There's probably easier ways but that was how I got it out! :)

      @krypten_bekk7247 8 лет назад +2

      Hair gel wouldn't work it just gets it slicked, hair spray wouldn't make it workable, get pomade what he was using was a very well know brand and it works well.

    I wasn't sayin I didn't like your do, I like it alot. It just looked like it took a while. I live in Oklahoma and most the time the heat keeps my pomade too soft to keep any major lift. I'd probably do my hair like yours if it were thicker and I lived in a cooler climate.

      Its my favorite water based pomade... because its still part oil but u can wash it out easily
