Why We Love It:
One of my absolute favourite grease pomades. Great for the traditional pomp; but be warned as it’s not so great for washability. This will require using shampoo two to three times, before it is fully removed.
The Reuzel Pink Pomade smells delicious with a fragrance of classic apple and salsa. Use it to create the perfect pompadour or quiff.

I was looking for a recommended pomade and having hair that can sometimes be a little unruly I wanted to try an oil based pomade so thought I would put Reuzel pink to the test.
It is easy to apply, gives great control and hold with nice smell as well.
The downside is it is quite difficult to wash out but by trying the Reuzel degrease kit (conditioner, scrub shampoo, daily shampoo) your hair is back to its best in no time. To go through the routine everyday is a bit much so I only tend to wear Reuzel Pink when going out of a weekend.
A great alternative for daily use without the rigmarole of the degrease routine is Reuzel Blue.
I just bought this because I have very thick hair and my stylist recommended it but I was never too keen on shine, but he changed that in a second!
Great and strong oil based pomade. Scent is quite sweet and reminds me of sugar/ candy. Reuzel is made in Holland (where I’m from) and they have quite a range of products nowadays. I especially like their grooming tonic as a pre-styler. However for styling purposes the pink Reuzel is definitely my favorite. It is very hard to wash out though.. Also the product leaves a residue on your hands (wash your hands with warm water followed-up by using a tower to scrub your hands clean). In my opinion the pink Reuzel is not really suited if you are looking for a very smooth en slicked-back hairstyle, as it is so tough. I switched to a cream product that is easier to style with by using a comb.
