For the most stubborn-to-style flyaway hair, or locks that need a boost of shine and sculpting hold, pomades are a great product to bring into your hair-styling routine. Best for short, thick hair, pomades are a wax-like paste than hold hair however you meld it, without the crunchiness or weighed down feeling of styling creams or gels. A little goes a very long way, so even a small jar should last you many months. It’s buildable, so start with a tiny amount, style, then add another layer if needed. It stands up well to moisture, so it’s good to use in rainy, humid weather. Most pomades cost about $20.
