    Default American Crew

    I use American Crew After Shave Moisturizer. I've been using it for about 5 years (on and off) and I have to say I've been very satisfied. After I splash on some cold water, it goes on really well. The scent is nice and clean though it only lasts a few hours. I haven't read anyone mention any American Crew products. Just curious. I've also used their cologne (good), shampoo (eh..), conditioner (minty!) and hair gel (excellent). It's just that I can't afford it all the time. I wait for sales at Trade Secret or other salons.

    First off, welcome to B&B. I have never used American Crew & wonder sometimes if their shave products are any good. This product & other salon type, mass marketed products don't get alot of love around here....

    I sell AC styling products in the shop and I rate them quite highly.

    I have some of the shave cream which is a latherless cream. It smells nice and is quite slick but I just don't like it. I pull it out of the cupboard every now and then but never quite get the shave I was hoping for. As for the AS balm/gel stuff, it's ok, quite cooling but the menthol element has caught me out following a quick (read rough) shave and left me with quite a burn.

    Overall I reckon Taylors shave creams/soaps outrank Crew and are the same price if not cheaper.

    Cheers

    Don't waste your money on AC shaving cream; it's the worst cream I've ever used.

    I couldn't agree more

    The Aftershave Moistorizer is quite good but there are far superior ones and cheaper.

    Regarding the shavingcream... it's not very good, not even as a brushless. There are far superior ones there as well.

    Their hairproducts are very good though and I use them daily.

    I've used their hair products for many years. I never seem to be without their pomade, and have yet to find another one that can compete. Never tried their other products though.
