Handcrafted Alpha Oil Based Pomade

Created for men's hair, this handcrafted oil based pomade starts with coconut oil and beeswax, which is regularly used to shield the hair and lock in hydration.

Jojoba oil is commonly used for lightweight hydration, and argan oil is frequently used to smooth frizz and deliver high shine. The scent profile carries tobacco, orange, bergamot, clove, orchid, musk, vanilla, leather, oak, and a hint of patchouli as scent notes.

Hair care engages touch at every step, and the step depends on the product. Cleansing products lift buildup and surface bacteria from the hair and scalp (Bloomfield et al., 2007). Conditioning products add oils and lipids that smooth the hair surface and reduce fiber friction (Robbins, 2012). Styling and leave-in products add glide through the same surface smoothing, which lowers mechanical stress on the fibers during combing and styling (Robbins, 2012; Rele & Mohile, 2003). At any step, massage-like pressure on the scalp activates the touch receptors around the hair follicles (McGlone et al., 2014) and is associated with reduced stress and relaxation (Field, 2010).

Anyone with a skin condition, allergies, or sensitivities should consult a physician or dermatologist before use.
