Good afternoon gentlemen. I see much reference to orthodox or unorthodox water based pomades. I know quite a lot of this nomenclature is associated with The Pomp at the web site of the same name. I think that is correct and anyone feel free to correct me if that assumption is wrong. He works with a lot of oil based products but is fully engaged in trying the new school water based stuff as well. Almost all of these products are more artisan in nature than typical off the retail shelf items you would see at Walmart or Walgreens.
So with that, what is the difference between the two types? I use Railcar Fine Goods and to be frank, this is what I would call a very smooth gel. A fabulous one to be sure and leagues beyond anything like Clubman gels or the stuff you see at Sally's. I also have Daimon Barber #1 and Anchor's Teddy Boy Original. I think both of those may be unorthodox but I am certainly not sure. Please fill me in.
