Which Reuzel Pomade Should You Use

Reuzel makes several pomades, and most people buy the wrong one first.

The tins look similar. The names sound close. The results are not.

This guide breaks down the Reuzel range in simple terms, so you choose the right product for your hair and your style.

First, What Matters When Choosing a Reuzel Pomade

Ignore colour names for a moment. Focus on three things.

• Hold strength
• Finish
• Hair type

If those match, the product works. If they do not, it feels wrong even if the brand is good.

Reuzel Blue Pomade

Strong hold. High shine.

This pomade is designed for structured styles that need to stay in place all day.

• Best for thick hair
• Slick backs and pompadours
• Holds shape under heat and movement

If your style collapses by midday, this is usually the fix.

Reuzel Green Pomade

Medium hold. High shine.

A classic pomade with more flexibility.

• Good for normal to thick hair
• Traditional barber styles
• Comb-through finish

Choose this

if you want shine without extreme stiffness.

Reuzel Pink Pomade

Heavy hold. Medium shine.

The strongest oil-based option in the range.

• Best for very thick or coarse hair
• Hard-to-control styles
• Old-school hold that stays put

This one takes commitment, but delivers control.

Reuzel Clay Matte Pomade

Strong hold. Matte finish.

This is the modern styling choice.

• Best for fine to normal hair
• Textured styles
• No shine

If you want shape without a styled look, this is usually the right option.

Reuzel Fiber Pomade

Medium hold. Low shine.

Sits between clay and traditional pomade.

• Good for finer hair
• Natural movement
• Flexible finish

Works well if clays feel too dry but shiny pomades feel too heavy.

Reuzel Extreme Hold Pomade

Maximum hold. Low shine.

Built for control above all else.

• Best for stubborn hair
• Sharp styles
• Long-lasting structure

Choose this only if strong hold is not enough.

Which Reuzel Pomade Is Right for Your Hair Type

Use this as a shortcut.

• Fine hair: Clay Matte or Fiber
• Normal hair: Green or Clay Matte
• Thick hair: Blue or Pink
• Coarse hair: Pink or Extreme Hold

Matching the product to your hair type matters more than brand loyalty.

Common Mistakes People Make

• Choosing shine when they want texture
• Using heavy hold on fine hair
• Buying oil-based pomade without committing to the routine

Most disappointment comes from mismatch, not product quality.

If you are unsure, start lighter. You can always move up in hold.

Reuzel works best when the product fits the hair, not the other way around.
