Hi, I'm Joost and today I'm comparing the Layrite cement clay with the Superhold pomade
0:04
Okay, so I've tested both side by side here, the cement clay and the Superhold pomade
0:08
And let's look at the texture here. So the Superhold pomade is really gummy and gooey
0:14
While the cement clay, it's more of a paste. It's not a wet paste like with the Layrite cream, but it is a solid paste
0:24
You really need to rub that across your hands to be able to apply that to your hair
0:29
So clay really has a matte finish. This even has a stronger hold than the Superhold pomade
0:36
And pomade has a wet finish. So this is like the original Layrite pomade they have, only with a stronger hold
0:44
And they do smell the same. They both have like the manly smell with a slight coconut smell to it
0:50
But the cement clay, it's the same smell they apply to it, but it does smell a little bit more earthy
0:56
And it really does its name justice, cement. And they say here it holds like wax and washes out like gel
1:04
So that's pretty much it. It smells delicious. And you can also wash this out just with a little shampoo
1:09
But the hold is amazing. It says matte finish. It is a little bit more like a wet finish here and there
1:18
And this is like a little bit more like the slick look. As you can see, it's a little bit more slick here and there
1:26
As you can see, you have to put, scrape a little bit out and then mold that in your hands
1:36
Now what I do is I take a little out and then rub that all over my hands
1:40
And then do my full hair. I like to wear it up. So I need to create some spikes here and there
1:45
And then take a little bit extra and use that to do the sides and the back of my hair
1:50
Just a little bit extra. So that stays in place all day. And the advantage of this clay here is that you can wash it out easily
1:56
But also that if your hair doesn't look the way you want it anymore during the day
2:00
you can just easily rub your hands through it and then mold it back into shape just a little bit more
2:05
And it also doesn't harden like with a gel. So this is like a wax without the extreme stickiness of waxes
2:13
Now for my shorter hair, it can give me those nice spikes that I like. And for my son's hair, which is a little bit longer, I can easily mold this to one side
2:21
And then make a few little adjustments to make sure every hair falls in the right place
2:25
So I really recommend this for anyone looking for a matte finish, but not really matte and not messy hair
2:32
but still a way to sculpt your hair exactly the way you want it
2:36
The Leroy Deluxe Stronghold Pomade. And it really does have a stronghold
2:40
I mean, look at that. It holds my hair up perfectly. And it has like a wet finish
2:45
It has a medium shine, so not too heavy. And it smells, it's quite a manly smell, but maybe a little bit bubblegummy
2:52
Or maybe that's the texture that's making me think of bubblegum. And this is really a strong gummy type of pomade
2:59
Now this is really sticky, so what I'd like to do is rub a little across my palms
3:04
And then rub that across the top of my head. And then make sure I cover every inch of my hair
3:09
Then I just take a little bit extra and do the back and sides of my hair, just to make sure that that stays in place all day
3:15
And I rub the top to the middle and make some spikes, so my hair stays up
3:19
Now this is perfect for a wet type of heavy hold, where you need your hair to stay in a particular place
3:25
And you can also use it for a little bit longer hair, like I do here with my sons
3:29
To make sure that it stays like in a slicked back look, or it stays to the side, like I'm doing here
3:34
And the advantage here is that it doesn't become crunchy. So it is a heavy hold, just like with gels
3:40
But it doesn't become crunchy, so you can go through your hair during the day. I think this Layrite Super Hold Pomade is perfect for those who want to have a heavy hold with like a wet look, but don't want that crunchiness of a gel
