Supershine Cream

I don't typically write reviews (too lazy really) but I feel I must do so for this product, because it's so good. Let me explain: I've been searching for practically all my adult life for the right hair product, and I must have tried every gel (hello '80s), paste, wax and pomade out there. Never been satisfied. Is it that much to ask for (1) a good hold, but not stiff or dry (2) a great sheen (3) no or minimal smell (4) easy to wash out? Well, let me tell you, that's apparently a heckuva lot to ask for, because I've never found the perfect combo in one product. Until now. This stuff is perfect. It's practically scentless and surprisingly soft and creamy. Goes on easily and washes out pretty cleanly in just warm water (I rarely use shampoo because it's so drying). They recommend you apply to dry hair – I usually towel dry but never blow dry, and it works great. I have a pretty short haircut, old fashioned "short back and sides" style, and I like a crisp part. Once rubbed in, I use a brush to get started, and it's a little tuggy at first – that would be my only gripe, but it's so insignificant, I wouldn't even call it that. Brush to get the general style right, then use a comb to create the parting. Smooth a little with my hands, and done. Residue on the hands is easy to rinse off. The sheen is excellent and lasts pretty well. What's also nice is, the hold is definitely there, but the hair doesn't harden or go shell-like. You can run your fingers through your hair or adjust it during the day. The hair feels a little tacky, but not sticky or goopy. It's easy to smooth down a stray tuft. The sheen tends to fade a bit toward the end of the day, but you can revive that some by smoothing down with damp hands. After all these years I've finally found my ideal hair product.

Excellent affordable men’s hair product. I use this in combination with a 2-1 clean shampoo and conditioner, towel dry to damp, use a high quality leave in conditioner (avoid cheap greasy conditioners) work the LayRite into hair and style to your preference. I use a small amount to style and add another small amount to finish the look I want to achieve. Works every time. **Note it’s important to get regular high quality haircuts.

This is it. This is the pomade you have been looking for. I've tried just about every pomade out there. If you want the true look of a nice round pompadour (not these crunch crisp shark fins people are saying are pompadours), a sleek old school look, slick back, executive side part, etc. then this is what you use. Updated with a nice vanilla scent and lighter color, this pomade is the best value money can buy. It doesn't dry out and get hard leaving the possibility of combing through and fixing it later in the day impossible. It gives you hold but stays combable. If you look at old videos of Cash and Elvis you'll find them pulling out their combs and making that hair look tight and right on stage. Other water based pomades doesn't allow you to do that. They're just masquerading as really sticky gels. This stuff is the real deal without all the haste of washing out real grease. Come out easily, smells good, gives good hold but stays soft throughout the day, doesn't dry but gives that shiny ol skool look,...but it now, you won't regret it.

This is a GREAT pomade; I deduct one star ONLY because of the smell (plastic/glue smell; I hear they are working to improve it). The smell does not last though so don't worry. Working it into dry hair is a challenge and best done with care, like all water based pomades. Go slow, or leave your hair towel-dry-damp to make it a lot easier (although dampness = less final hold). Once you get your hair coated, it combs just fine (at least on my straight, fine hair), just again take it slow and easy with the comb. On dry hair, I would call the hold pretty strong, even though the jar says "medium." I have used American Crew "medium hold" pomade, and the Layrite has a MUCH stronger hold than the American Crew. The shine is OUTSTANDING; as good as Brylcreem with a MUCH stronger hold (which is why I tried it in the first place). Another pro: It washes out with NO trouble using JUST water. Con: It washes out with NO trouble using JUST water. If you get caught in the rain, you're done for. I still use Brylcreem if I know I might get wet; may try some other oil-based pomades as well just to avoid this. Bottom Line: Awesome shine, great hold, way easy to wash out. Just go slow and easy when applying.

Layrite Supershine Cream has been my go-to hair product for years. It delivers that classic, polished look I love without feeling heavy or greasy. This particular seller has consistently provided the genuine product, which is a huge plus. I've tried imitations, and they just don't compare. The cream provides a nice, subtle shine and keeps my hair in place all day. It's reliable, easy to use, and a staple in my grooming routine. I highly recommend it, especially from a seller who ensures you're getting the real deal.

I use this stuff as a curl cream. I dont use it as described in the package though. When I get out of the shower, i keep my hair completely wet and brush it out with a wide tooth comb. Then I apply this stuff to my hair in quadrants, top of head, sides, and back of head. First getting "under" then "Over". After that I use increasingly fine toothed combs to "squeeze" the excess water out of my hair, which also ensures every strand is thoroughly and evenly coated. After this i wet comb my hair and let my hair dry on its own. No towels involved at any point. I get really good results like this, little to no frizz and it drys out without being greasy or crunchy feeling. It does retain the "Wet look" property, which I rather like. Makes my hair very shiny and a bit darker then it otherwise would appear. Also seems my scalp really likes the stuff. I dont get any dandruff or anything when I use it.

私の場合ですが、同シリーズのスーパーホールドを髪に馴染ませた後に、こちらのポマードを髪の毛を上から撫でるようにつけています。 ツヤはしっとりとした感じがでます。

Desde luego en cuanto a fijación y brillo tira de lujo, pocas he visto que fijen tan bien, deja al pelo una textura relativamente natural, no queda como una piedra como pasa con otras ni pierde fijación a lo largo del día.

Arrived very fast

Un'ottima pomata. Un po' costosa ma la confezione è grande, mi è durata 2 anni. Dona una leggera lucentezza ai capelli senza incollarli.

Been using this pomada/creme for many years. It's simply THE best water soluble creme on the market, no other comes even close. Buying it on Amazon becase it's simple and the price is ok.
