Goon Grease - Citrus Cologne
I been using pomades for over a year now and in that time
I’ve tried all kinds. Like with shaving soap, I’m now doing the same thing with
pomades, collecting. I have to admit the labels are part of the attraction but performance
is always paramount. I started out with water based but gradually moved to
grease. In the course of a few months my grease collection has grown considerably.
The one I’d like to talk about first is Goon Grease which I own two.
The Lockhart’s hale out of Michigan and have created some of
the most beloved artisan pomades on the market today. The line is extensive with
Clay, Water base and Grease offering Light, Medium and heavy holds. The Goon
Grease pomades I own are both heavy hold and are exactly the same ingredients except
for the scent. My introduction began with the citrus and cucumber which has a
great scent that stays with you the entire day. When I found out about the
Special Edition Lemon I just had to have it.
Each tin is 4oz and has a push on top. The Special Edition
Lemon has the Goon Grease monster on the lid so you can easily identify it from
the others. You would think the scent strength to be the same on both but that
was not the case for me. The Special Edition Lemon was on the lighter side
which was a little disappointing. After emailing Lockhart’s on Sunday I had a
response in just a few minutes. I have to say that was amazing customer
support! After some emails back and forth they offered a solution to exchange
it for another. Nicole told me that I could have received a weaker one and a
new one was on the way. She was correct, the new one offered way more lemon
goodness then the previous one. Outstanding customer support!!
The performance of this pomade is outstanding. My method of
applying any pomade is right after I shower so my hair is damp. Even though
this is heavy hold I didn’t get that pull on my hair when combing like the
others and the hold and shine are fantastic too. I’ve notice with some pomades
mostly water based you have a certain amount of time to style before it sets. I
find grease to be more forgiving even an hour later you can put a comb through
it without a problem.
Regardless of my scent issues it’s hard to beat the
performance of this pomade no matter which one you choose.
