After several requests for more videos, I got down and did one. Well… three… More like two and a half, but that’s besides the point. VIDEOS!!!
Video 1: A lot of people highly favor heavy pomades over anything lighter, at least when it comes to hold and styling, and when I started out, I had to agree. But, I’ve learned a couple of tricks here and there, which made me come to love light pomades as is. I mean, it is what they used in-the-day! So, hopefully this little trick will help you cats feel the same!
Video 1.5: This video is just a follow up from video 1, showing that the trick indeed does work! I went out for a couple of hours to run some errands. The day was hot, the windows were rolled down to catch a cool breeze, and the hair held nicely! And no, I did not recomb the pomp!
Video 2: In other videos and posts, I’ve mentioned that the ducktail was one of the most important details to a pomp, that is often left out. But, I also left out this important detail- slicked down sides! With a comb and a brush, you can only get the sides slicked down so much. But if you want your sides lookin’ super slicked, you might wanna invest in a nice boar hair brush! And please, don’t get them confused with badger hair brushes used for shaving!
Hopefully my translator is correct, or else I’ma look like a jackass!
Is this technically my first care package, since USPS lost the main component from my first one? Anywho…
After a few emails exchanged, a couple weeks passed, it’s finally here! I stumbled upon this brand by chance, as I’ve done most pomades. But this time, I was looking for pomade for women! My lady has asked me if women used pomade to style their hair. Of course, some do, but the majority of them stick to hairspray.
That’s fine and all, but really…. Is there a pomade that women can use comfortably? Without having to be greasy like us fellas? Well folks, the folks out in Germany have the answer! And that answer is, hell yes!
Rumble 59 is one hell of a company. From tee shirts for both men and women, jackets, pomade, hell, even saddle shoes! They’ve got their bases covered. And especially for you cats looking for some new denim, they got a sweet pair of cinch back denim for sale.
Even the opening montage for their site is pretty fuckin awesome!
Now… For the pomade… They’ve got PLENTY. They’ve got nine different pomades. Now, that’s a lot for one company to put out. I mean, a lot of brands have about three at max, but they’ve got three times as much! And ladies, they have two specific pomades, just for you!
After exhanging a few emails with Mareike, it was time to wait. And waiting is the hard part!
And on the rainiest day of the week, the goods came!
Now, when I first saw the box… I figured, cool, probably sent me a shirt, why else would they send a box this big?
Cool, got a catalog for their gear!
And then… MIND FUCK.
Six, big ass tins of pomade! And a little as I like to call it “emergency size.”
Wow… As soon as I saw them all, I was speechless. Pretty fuckin nice of them, wouldn’t you cats say???
Two for my lady to try out and review, and 5 for me… But realistically, I’m probably gonna try out some of her pomade… Hopefully she doesn’t read my blog, then notice a huge blob of pomade missing from her tin!
As you would have guessed it… There was no more room on my newly installed shelves for these guys… So you know what… I had to put up one more fuckin shelf! Luckily, I didn’t bust my hand on the last one.
And if you cats don’t believe me when I say that these are big ass tins, I had to install the last shelf to be a tad more spaced out, so they all can fit!
YUP! These are some big ass tins of pomade!
Unfortunately, since the weather is shitty, the review for these pomades has to be postponed. I give each and every pomade a leveled playing field, by making sure I review them on hot days, when their properties really matter. So, with the rains coming down hard, the Scmiere reviews will just have to wait. Sigh. I know. I’m getting ancy just looking at them!
But let me tell ya… Off the bat, just taking a look at them and smelling them, I know that these are some badass products!
So stay tuned folks. You won’t wanna miss it!
Again, big thanks to Mareike and the folks behind Rumble59! My lady and I are grately appreciative by your generosity!
