Shear Revival Gray Ghost Cream Pomade – Strong Hold Hair Styling for Men – Matte Finish, Lightweight & Vegan Formula – 96g

A really nice fresh lemon scented pomade. Nice medium consistency, not runny and not too hard, just right to rub on your palms and apply to the hair. Holds great too both applied with wet or dry hair. When applied dry it gives a natural look, not wet or shiny. Best pomade I've used to date.

This is a bit of a strange product for me this one is. The first time I used it I thought I'd found the perfect product. It was very easy to scoop out and when you first apply it (dry hair for me) feels very tacky with an incredible hold and great control. However, after 15-30 minutes the initial hold fades and you're left with a much softer feeling product in the hair, albeit still with decent enough hold but hair does drop. Can't work out if I like this or not. Finish is nice, not waxy feeling and feels quite light in the hair. Very easy to re-work and can be used as a pre styler. Easy to wash out but makes hair feel a little dry. Overall I think this is a 4* solid product, and I believe it's vegan which is great - but it wasn't reliable enough for me. Had some very good hair days but equally pretty average ones. Would I buy again? Maybe, but I'd equally like to try some others that claim to offer similar performance. Compared to something like Reuzel Extreme Hold, I would say this is a superior product in every way other than the hold. Reuzel is a much stronger holding product but GG wins in every other area and feels like a higher quality product overall.

Wow, my hair is in heaven. What a great product, the hair feels soft, textured, thick and healthy at the same time, restyling the hair with this is so convenient. Have fine hair and this is the best hair creampomade I ever have tried. Had this on blow-dried hair and it has natural shine. I love it, will never buy another product again, tried so many other brands, other products like clay, gels, vax etc, but I have finally the right product for me :)

Personally for me its three stars for my very fine blond/brown hair. Shear Revival are a fantastic brand and I have use almost all of their products over the years: Gray Ghost, Northern Lights, American Gardens, Upstate Blues and Crystal Lake. This has great natural ingredients but was a bit too heavy for a natural push/slick back (5inches on top short sides) and it caused my part to split. I did find that I needed a little shampoo to remove most of it at the end of the day. Personally I get better results with Northern Lights as although its slightly less hold it restyles better during the day and makes my hair look thicker. I think where Gray Ghost would excell is for a side part style without volume if that makes sense but then again if you don't have very fine hair it might work better. Overall a great brand and lifelong Shear Revival customer, it just didn't work out this time.

Shear Revivals Gray Ghost has left me very impressed. I was excited to try a product that promised a strong hold without weighing down my hair. The reviews were fantastic on Reddit. The cream was easy to apply, with a smooth consistency that made it simple to style my hair into the messy, textured look that I was going for. And once I had it in place, it stayed put all day, even in windy conditions. I don’t have to worry about my hair losing its shape or looking messy by mid-day, which is a big plus for me. It doesn’t leave a greasy or sticky residue behind. My hair feels soft and natural, with none of the buildup or residue that can sometimes be left by other styling products. I like to switch up their hairstyle often, I appreciated that the product was versatile enough to work well for a range of different looks. Overall very impressed with it and will be sticking with it.

I was very surprised there was no identification for the product at all however I have tried a small sample on my hair and I’m quite impressed

The smell is really fragrant. If you like a citrus scent than it’s for you. The hold is good, but I prefer a more gloss look. Will definitely buy this brand again.

I've been using this pomade for 2 years now. So happy I came across gray ghost after sampling so many brands and creating a pomade graveyard in my bathroom. I love this one when you open it it hits you with a creamy, citrus, botanical smell. The texture is nice too if its too thick just add a little water. It washes out easy and it's vegan. I have very thick hair which I like to wear in a slick back, this is definitely the one for me!
