I have the pomade over here, you can see that it's quite wet
0:02
I'm Joost and I'm here today to compare the Uppercut Clay with the Uppercut Deluxe pomade
0:06
which is like the classic one and they couldn't be farther apart
0:10
It has this wet look but the hold is still great, it's a little bit less than the clay
0:15
and that's over here. And you can see there's quite a drier look
0:20
So not a wet slick look but it's almost like it's holding itself up without having any
0:26
gel in there. So that's like the difference between the two in the most literal sense
0:32
Of course the texture is a little bit different and the hold is different as well. Okay so this is the clay and this is the Deluxe pomade and they're really different
0:40
As you can see here the clay is quite solid and it's not wet and the pomade here is actually
0:50
quite wet. Let me get that into frame. It's actually quite wet and not so solid
1:00
So the differences couldn't be... I have to really rub this one to get some off and then you have to warm it in your hand
1:09
So the differences couldn't be any larger. And I have to say that this is one of the best smelling pomade I've ever had and I've
1:19
tried quite a few. I've been doing my own and my son's hair for a few days now and I have to say that the
1:24
hold is pretty great. Especially for my thin hair, my shorter hair and that of my son's it holds all day as well
1:32
So I don't have to worry about applying another layer of gel or another pomade again during
1:38
the day. This product is water based and it gives a nice amount of shine without losing the ability
1:44
to hold your hair in place. So they say on the tin that the hold is 7 out of 10 and the shine is 8 out of 10
1:52
So if you want to go for that slick back look or shiny spikes like with my short hair then
1:57
this is a great product. And this one also smells quite nice
2:02
It's a little bit more rugged, more manly than the Uppercut Deluxe pomade and I actually
2:06
think that one smells a little bit better but this is also very great
2:10
Now this one has 2 out of 10 on shine and 8 out of 10 on hold
2:17
So it holds very very well. It's very sturdy. You can mold it into place any way you want it
2:23
So just use a little on top and then a little bit extra on the sides and back for my hair
2:30
And when I apply it, I just put a little bit into my hands
2:34
It's quite gooey and you don't need to use that much. So this can last for quite some time
2:39
So I just put a little bit in my hands and then rub it all over your hands. Make sure your hands are dry before applying this because it is water based
2:45
Otherwise it would be too wet. Then I apply that to my hair and then a little bit extra to the sides
2:50
As you can see the hold on my hair is pretty strong
2:54
So this is for like an out of bed look. Now the smell is like a strong manly smell
2:59
It's a little bit more manly than like a Metro Man than you get from the Uppercut Deluxe pomade
3:05
And this is more like a coconutty vanilla smell. And this is more like an earthy smell
3:11
You only need just a little bit to do your hair. I just did my own and my son's
3:16
And I think this is perfect to use on your hair if you have thin hair
3:20
Just to get it to stand up. Or like my son, his hair is a little bit longer
3:25
And you can really make sure that the hair stays to the side
