Alpha is amazed at the men's hair product drugstore options. In this video men's style, grooming, fitness and lifestyle expert, Aaron Marino of IAmAlphaM, AaronMarino, and Pete & Pedro is buying and testing drugstore hair products. He's heading to Walgreens for alternatives to Pete and Pedro Putty.
With fresh clean hair, Alpha tries each of the 5 hair products:
1. American Crew Fiber ($19.00) - the price is the same as Pete and Pedro Putty and the most expensive of these 5 products. It's fresh smelling, a bit of shine, and hold is decent although he feels it will go flat as soon as he goes outside. Overall, it remains a great product.
2. Axe Spiked Up ($9.50) - it's super messy, sticky, and paste-like. It has the highest hold of all 5 products. After styling, his hair feels dry with a waxy residue. Note that after he washed his hair, he can still smell the Axe. The scent is intense.
3. Old Spice Putty ($8.00) - smells mild and is really soft. The more you heat it up, the scent becomes stronger (and not to Alpha's liking in regard to the fragrance). The product goes into his hair easier than Axe but has a much lower hold than American Crew and Axe.
4. Dove Sculpting Paste ($7.75) - mild fragrance, stiff, and emulsifies easily. The hold is not great (it's medium; not as good as the Axe) but on-par with American Crew (and half the price of American Crew). Overall, this product was Alpha's favorite of all 5 tested.
5. Got2B Glued Spiking Wax ($7.00) - a higher hold with a mild scent and similar in consistency to Dove. It's very sticky, heavy, and waxy. This product is the least favorite in terms of performance.
Overall Thoughts
If you put any of these products in wet hair and let air dry, they'll lock it down. A cost effective and good product is the Dove Sculpting Paste. American Crew is really good too. The other three are decent, but the lower price equates to lower quality ingredients. Note that Alpha prefers Pete and Pedro Putty above all of these products and would spend the extra bucks on the hair he cherishes. Additionally, unlike other brands where one product is good, the entire line Pete and Pedro line is superior with super high quality.
Gentlemen, what's happening great, to see so doing something a little bit different today, the other day I was in a drugstore, and I passed the men's hairstyling product section, and I was amazed at how many different options there are nowadays, as opposed to Beck's before Pete and Pedro when I actually used to shop for it - and so I thought it would be a pretty cool idea for me to go and actually buy some of the current products that are on the market, that you can find the drugstores and test them out to find The best because I know that there are a lot of you guys out there that don't have access to Pete and Pedro, which happens to be the best product on the market or you're, just looking for a more budget-friendly option. And so I thought it'd be a great idea for me to test try and let you know what to buy, not to mention my hair. This is looking a little rough could use some product, gentlemen, let's head to Walgreens, what's up man, and here we are the men's section. So what I'm thinking is that I'm actually going to be looking for a matte product. I use Pete and Pedro putty, and so I'm looking for something that's similar to that, so that I can actually style my hair with the new products and get the best result and give you guys my opinion. I Old, Faithful American Crew fiber. I still love this stuff. It is expensive actually about the same price as Pete and Pedro, but we're going to grab this see if I still like it Old Spice now has a nice selection and it's super affordable. Eight bucks, let's grab the putty for 9:49. I got to give acts ago: let's try the Dove sculpting paste, I love doves products and so I'm excited to try it and got to be alright. So I got five products. I think that's a good number and a good selection. So I'm going to head back to the house, get a shower and start testing some of these bad boys out all right, guys, fresh, clean hair and ready for action. First things first and a brush it into place. First of all, I'm going to try is the American fiver. I used to love the stuff. I still love the smell kind of lemony and fret it actually looks like there's less in there, and there used to be - which I think is interesting - is definitely less in there all right, I'm going to use similar amount that I would with Pete and Pedro putty Emulsify, it still smells great, like I said and work it in. I feel like I need more get it in there all right now, it's time to style and done not bad, not bad. A little bit of shine, not too much the hold is decent. I think my hair will go flat in about 10 minutes once I go outside, and that was one of the issues that I remember having with the American Crew is that it would look great as soon as I would style it. But if it was hot outside or I went out into the Sun, it was sort of flop down, but in a pinch American Crew fiber great product it really it smells the same. It works the same from what I can remember and it's a good product. Now. It'S good and it's also the most expensive that I bought, but now let me wash my hair again and what do you say? What do you try? Yes, all right, so I use shampoo to make sure that we got the most accurate representation of how the products work. Axon has gotten a bad rap right because of those stinky ass body sprays, but it's uh. It'S super messy, which is one of my pet peeves. This is much more tastes like juice, that much and it's really sticky, but let's give it a try um, it is not. I used, I think too much all right. I am going to style and I will be right back all right, um, it isn't as bad as I was expecting, but my my hair feels dry when I was using the crew, along with team Pedro cutting my hair. When I run my fingers through it, it still feels nice and soft and a little bit silky this. My hair feels super dry and almost damaged it's not damaged. This didn't damage my hair, but it just it. It obviously is leaving like some type of like waxy residue or something it'll not wild about, but in a pinch it would probably do let's try Old Spice Forge one thing to note: I shampooed my hair and I still smell the Axe fragrance on my hand. So I'm going to drop that down to like a three, because one of the things that I hate is a very pungent and fragrant hair product and one of the problems with acts as a general rule is that their their fragrances are just really powerful overpowering. Actually and that's one of the issues they freakin stink, so this drops in ranking, but as far as performance, pretty good. Next up, let's try. The Old Spice forged putty looks like putty smells very mild, not bad. Oh, it's really soft for you guys that, like a soft product, I actually like a little bit harder product that, typically so will go there. It emulsifies, basically it's much much more, who added now, I'm selling it more! You heat it up who that that is very strong as well and not necessarily to my liking in terms of the fragrance, but fragrance is subjective, that's just really strong. It goes into my hair, a lot easier, then the accid and ah so far. This is my least favorite much lower hold than the other two, and it really does smell, and so that, just in and of itself kind of knocks it down a peg. I would rate this probably on the same level as the axe. The whole is much lower on this, then the axe, but once again my hair feels dry. It feels really dry and I honestly hate the smell, but that's my personal opinion. I really love dove deodorant the Dove shave cream. The fragrance of this is really mild. Dove has just really come a long way and honestly I've been super impressed with them. So I'm excited to try this, but first I got a wash. Why did I decide to do five? I think three would have been sufficient. Alright here we go. Let'S comb it into place, like I said, does, has really done a great job in terms of men's products. The fragrances are all nice and mild they're, not overpowering, like axe or Old Spice, this one really mild, and it is a little bit more of a stiff not as this is like the putty, but it's still pretty stiff in terms of a product and still very Mild very mild multiplies easy, and it's worth that bad boy in and okay, you know the drill I'll be back in a second all right and nice. Ah, my hair does not feel dry, which I like there's not a super powerful fragrance. The hold is not great. It'S definitely not as good as the axe, but it's definitely on par with the American Crew and for the price. It literally is half the price of American Crew. The holes is kind of medium, it's not great, but it actually says it's medium hold on the container, which would probably be the reason why and so does I'm going to say, good job, not super high hold, but definitely solid and last but not least, got to Be alright last product, it is got to be the spiking wax. I actually saw this on my way out. It was actually a higher hold, so I grabbed this there Myles smell. It is very similar in consistency to the Dove. The fragrance isn't bad, it's not great, but it's definitely not as bad as acts, because that's in my opinion, can't be too careful, never knows out there watch and wait for you to slip up these days. We were crazy and, let's see ah I think my hair's just tired though um this doesn't really do it for its real. It'S still sticky, it um, I'm not really feeling it's very sticky um, I don't know stickies the worst. It'S weird it's heavy feeling it feels waxy in my hair. This is probably, I would say my least favorite in terms of performance. The axe is the highest hold that I tried, though, but in terms of fragrance this one like is it. Is this intense the forged putty, not that great? In my opinion, the American Crew fiber is still a great product. They haven't changed anything, but I would say that in this little experiment, my favorite that I tried was actually done. Here'S the deal depending on your hair, the way you style it I mean you obviously saw how I file and I use keep it softens it up, and so it makes it a little bit more bouncy luscious and a little bit softer if you were to put Any of these products in wet hair and let it air dry, it's probably going to lock it down. It is definitely locking it down if you use the axe, you're also going to smell you from about three blocks away, but none of these even remotely touch Pete and Pedro pine. I'M not just that. I'M not saying that just because it's my product, if this is a superior product and one of the reasons why we designed Pete and page or the entire line, is that usually you'd go shopping and you'd find one product out of a line. That'S good, like I really like the American Crew fiber and the forming cream, I think, is good the pomade, I'm not nuts, about a lot of their other products, I'm not crazy about dove. This is the only product. I'Ve tried it's good, I would imagine other product. They have is good, it's also super affordable and you can pretty much find this anywhere. You can find a drugstores. You can find it supermarkets, the price super affordable. Why is it affordable? Because it's not the highest quality stuff, it doesn't have the tentacles or hair healthy nutrients like Pete and Pedro putty, but this is a bit more expensive, bringing us to another point: good ingredients with skincare and hair care, they're expensive. The way that they're able to sell these products super cheap is because the quality is a little bit lower. Quite frankly, my hair is something that I cherish, and you know for me to save. You know five bucks as opposed to using something that's a high quality. Like a Pete major product, I personally would would spend a few extra dollars, but this is a good product. All of these are decent. This, I would say, is really good. This, I would say, is really good. The other ones are decent and, depending on here, your hair style. You may want to give them a try, got something going going on here. I'M not watching my damn hair again, it's tired guys if you want to try a super high quality product and you're.

Comments
William Boyle: Yo Alpha! You should try out this brand called Pete and Pedro
MG: A couple months back i was single. After using Pete & Pedro products im still single, but my hair looks amazing!
Goose: Dove sculpting paste was his favorite of them, and I bought it and like it as well. Just trying to save people some time...incase you were standing around trying to find the best hair product inside a drugstore for 15 minutes like me...
Mil: This test is incomplete. You have to wear it for the whole day to see how it holds up throughout the day. Thats the true test lol
tony jeff: “Feels dry” “Shampoos hair 5 times in an hour
Nick Joslin: This dude hit the lottery in the strong hairline department.
Ivan Ivanovich: As someone who's only started keeping hair on my head for the first time in the last 11 years (Due to Military Service), gotta say, your channel is really helping me out. I've been wearing an undercut, since I'm not too sure what else to do, but I'm still learning a lot from your channel.
Smelly E: Just letting you know, I had that same dove product. It was great, it made my hair soft and , easy to move. But it had almost no hold. So I recommend using it as a pre styler. It works great.
Braden M: Old spice seems to be the only hair product that holds my hair and I love the smell. (I am an old spice fan boy though) I guess everyone will have their own experiences though!
Mr. Sniffles: His hair still looked amazing in with each product. Goes to show that you can still look wicked even without the best products!
Katicus: Pete & Pedro is a bit pricey. Instead of buying it I took my girl out for a nice dinner and she told me to buy Pete & Pedro so I did and the next week I took her to BurgerKing, best decision she ever made for me.
Logan Sanders: I went and did the same thing with the same products. Old Spice surprised me the most. If you use less than you’re supposed to use it works great.
Atomic86: In my opinion, old spice forge putty is super good. It acts as a good prestyler almost as good as original by blumaan. It's really great that I'm using it instead of original
Mr. Optimism: Loved the video Alpha! It was a very unbiased review which goes to show your strong character. Most other businesses owners are too afraid to give their honest opinion in such a competitive market, I’d love to shake your hand some day and buy you a beer. Keep up the videos!
exxtra.chrispy: It’s awesome to be able to jump into your videos whenever and see a positive happy attitude. Always makes my day better to see someone at least act as happy as you do
Isaac Potmesil: For axe, your best option is the “Messy Look” style putty
Samuel: Hey Alpha! I fixed the hold problem with the old spice putty! There is a gel you can get from dove, the control gel fixant, that you put into your when dry or damp, and you style it to your side part look, then you put in the putty and it creates a strong hold. And surprisingly, using the gel still keeps your hair looking natural, or undone. It works really great! If you try it out let me know what you think!
jackj brewster: I actually like the Old Spice. I get a pretty good hold on it and didn't notice a strong smell. You do need to use a little more of it than what he's using but I liked it better than the Crew and it's half the cost
viveus: I prefer using mud from the creek.
Bryce Morawe: I've used Aveda pomade and it works and holds the best that I have used. For shorter hair I recommend that. I bought Old Spice's pomade and have been using that for the last month or two. It doesn't have the hold of Aveda but it lasts all day even after a workout and gives more fluff to my hair.
Trysten Zick: I love the Old Spice hair products! One tip don’t use a blow dryer. I’m not sure what it is about those products but they work better without the heat
TartTooth: I use Old Spice pomade (the one with the blue label). I have hair a little shorter than Aaron's and it holds great without smelling bad or hardening. I recommend giving it a try.
Lightningmonky 7: I love this guy's positive vibes. It's giving me hope I can actually improve
LegacyDaKing: No matter what product he used his hair was still better than mine ever has or will be XD
Syjinx: Also, otherwise I've been using phenoMENal, smells great and does its job well in my opinion, but I'm looking to see how P&P putty does when I can afford it :)
Nuclear: After this video i went on to buy the Dove sculpting paste. It works extremely well and I love it. Only problem is that to get its full affect you need dry hair. Which isn’t a problem for me exactly but after practice i can’t apply it because of my sweaty and damp hair. If that wouldn’t be an issue for you then i highly recommend it and it smells great. Medium hold w a matte finish that lasts the entire day.
Dil Marsh: I would recommend Harry’s texturizing putty. Low shine and great hold, very subtle yet enjoyable scent to go along with it.
Syjinx: I've ordered mr pompador peppermint pomade, shampoo and conditioner, I remember the fragrance being strong, got it because I'm going to a ball and decided to go for the 50's slick back in my tailored suit, to which I'm delighted to see how that goes :P
r3cker: I'm glad to see Dove wasn't so bad, given I'm a big fan of the brand. This isn't so relevant but dove men+care soap is my favourite soap. :P Oddly interesting video man, thanks for abusing your hair for us!!
Gustavo Serrano: For Dove it depends which one one you chose, I used to use axe but i had problems with the grease, not lasting hold, But for me personally I love to use Dove Sculpting Paste, its a medium hold which for me it would last about 5-8 hours. Good texture looking and works on my straight hair
r3drift: started using my beard moisturizer on my hair and couldnt be happier.. best carefree tamed look without trying and bc i was on a rush one day and itst been the best
Joseph Ferragamo: I agree... I’ve done the same tests. My bathroom has partially used cans of everything. Dove is a mainstay for me. And Crew Fiber. I’m also gonna try the Pete & Pedro next. Here’s what I’m looking to find out. Crew Boost Powder ?!? Can you review it? I’ve been reading about it. Was wondering if I can get the same results using Crew Fiber and Baby Powder. And it did change the hold of the Fiber but couldn’t really see any difference in thickness. As I get older I’m getting thinner Nd wonder if boost powder may be an option. But it’s an expensive trial to do. One last thing, when using the Boost powder should I use a gel, pomade (hate), Fiber or paste with it. Hope to see your review of it soon.
cory l: I use Old Spice pomade and love it. Great hold and smells pretty good as well
Black Ghost In White Smoke: Hey, Aaron could you do a protein packed lunch. Heck even a series on breakfast, lunch and dinner (snacks) too maybe?.
Hector Arredondo: I used the Old Spice and i did felt my hair was to dry and it made me mess with my hair so much it’s thinning and a friend that used both the dove and American crew has mentioned that it’s about the same I will try Pete and Pedro it’s pricy but will give it shot
Morris Falker: Non of the "cheap" drugstore products worked for me during my entire life or i did something wrong. Until today.. i bought the Syoss max hold cream-wax and it's a gift from heaven ! The first wax that ever worked for me and/or a little bit of hair clay from Johnny's Shop (strong matt hold). I have a short haircut so i'm done within 2 minutes.
Roberto Gonzalez: I remember I used Got2b gel a couple years back and their products have always been sticky,and pretty painful if you tried combing with it.
Jake Hagerdorn: I used to use dove for my hair. But I changed my hair style and now I use got2b fiber cream. It’s similar to mousse.
Alex Bennett: I’ve had better with crew fiber when used it on my cold hair while it was almost dry. Water kills the hold and so does heat. After I styled I would use hair spray to help hold. After all that my hair would look too perfect is “gelled” so I fished by messing it up and breaking a little bit of the hair spray hold. So crew fiber can work well it just takes extra steps.
Plain Main Account: I use Fiber and it still works pretty well. Definitely the best out of these five
McB12329: I've been using just a dab of Prospectors iron ore for years and I have medium to short hair and love the hold, look and smell. It's a little bit more expensive but you use so little of it it lasts months.
CelibateN LovinIt: I love the hair, Alpha. Your parents did well!
Jonh Smith: This is seems like the most honest video you've done in a while, where you're not trying to shove advertising down our throats
Liam Kneeson: I use american crew fiber and I love it, I use it without heat and spray just a little bit of high hold hair spray after and it locks it in place while looking natural.
Pedro Martinez: I love the Dove!! I mainly use Garnier, with the hold level of 3 for softness and at the same time, use a finger tip of Dove for texture and a stronger hold. The best combination I think, if your on a budget!!
Cj Shattered: I can relate to the axe one I have the messy look it has a pretty good hold but it makes my hair insanely dry
Steven Watson: i love dove good to hear from someone other than me, they give good quality at a low price. i know it isn't salon quality. but do able.
Nathaniel Martin: The axe you used was for extreme hold, I recommend the urban messy style. Its a matte finish and holds like you would expect,
keerstn: THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU - I was buying online for my teenage sons. I was trying to decide between Axe and American Crew, and this really helped! I really appreciate your washing your hair 5x 2 years ago to help me out!
YoungBeezy: I’ve tried old spice pomade and it sucks well atleast for me and my hair. It takes me 2 shampoos to get it out of my hair and it leaves my hair feeling weird. I’ve also used axe pomade and it’s one of the best I’ve used. Easy to use and you can just wash your hair with water and it comes out easy and you’re hair feels normal.
Eric Kane: I gotta say I hated the other axe hair creams but I am a big fan of the axe natural look one that was on the shelf (the green one) i find it has a nice subtle smell is more of a paste but the hold could be better
Cristobal Flores: The Dove mixed with very little strong gel is a real cool thing:)
The Supernormal: I bought the axe messy look flexible paste thought i wouldnt like it after this video but it was actually good for mid length hair.. It keeps it loose and you can always fix it up throughout the day
VIP Experience: I used the orange axe for about a year and my barber started to comment on my hair, asking what product i used for my hair because my hair condition was getting worse. I use the got 2 b now and my hair just looks and is a lot better than it used to.
Curt W: I've been using the David Beckham's House 99 products for about 18 months and I've been happy. I played drugstore roulette and was never happy. My hands down favorite product was Moroccan Oil texture clay but I could only get it at a salon that ended up closing and it was like $35.
Christian Méza: I'm glad someone was able to test these out for me 'cause testing these out would have gotten really annoying really fast.
Adam G: I just use my semen. It's got an extremely strong hold, and gives my hair a nice shine.
Carlo De la Vera: when i didn't know squat about hair product I picked up the axe messy look and it was good, nothing like the one you picked up. it was solid and the smell was minimal, I've got thick wavy hair so it worked for me
Jay James: Iv'e been using the Axe for a while and it works good on my hair. I do the pompadour hairstyle.
Surinder Singh: Label-M Matt Paste is without a doubt the best product out there. It’s amazing.
Edward Montoya: I personally use excess beard balm on my hair. Natural looking hold, plus shea butter and oils keep my hair soft.
m p: I've been using the got2b for about a year, ever since I started going with shorter hair on the sides and longer on top. I've never had a problem with it. The scent lasts all day but it's not too over the top. I did notice, about an hour after applying it, it gets really hard, but later in the day it softens. The hold is still ok, but I've never really tried other brands. Now that I hear your opinion, I might have to give the Crew putty a try, or maybe buy myself a tub of Pete and Pedro.
Anthony Regalado: I also like Dove. It's a really good brand in my personal opinion
Sha. Lugur: The Axe messy look is by far my fav out of all the ones that were at the store. Its not oil like at all. Its a paste and can hold really good with help of one quick spray of hairspray
Andy N: Yo Alpha, you should try the "D FI" paste and see how it stands against Pete & Pedro!
Cooper Bishop: I’m a kid so of course I usually use the cheapies and I’ve always used axe and ive used every color and style and my favorite was the purple pomade
Alex Bennett: I agree 100% with what you said about American crew fiber
Laura Wood: The old spice isn't always super soft I find its only when its exposed to a lot of heat.
Tron_23: The only decent thing axe makes is actual deodorant spray. Not the body spray. Thanks for saving us fifty bucks we appreciate you.
Cody Smith: Hey Broski, Have you tried the Suave brand? It looks almost identical to the Dove brand, It’s in the same container except the Suave is a blue container obviously, I use it when I’m out of my other brand and I think it has a nice hold and shine, Doesn’t leave your hair feeling wax like and also has bounce to it while still remaining in place! You should try it!
ChraToooX: Tiege Hanley can be used for hair as well
Silent Sid: Ive used got2b for mohawks, it works after if you have the right amount and yeah you cant really heat it up or have wet/damp hair when putting it on
Riot: I use the Paul Mitch clean cut semi matte paste every day and it’s great You can get it in a two pack and get a bottle of shampoo with it for like 20 bucks
Adam Saladin: I’ve been using a combination of lotion and American Crew Fiber for years but have never been fully satisfied. I ordered some Pete and Pedro putty to see if it is better
James Carabajal: I haven’t watched enough of your videos with Pete and Pedro but I would have loved to see you do your hair with Pete and Pedro directly after doing these 5 so we could see the difference especially since you didn’t use a comb on any of these gels.
Aztrix: I use Tiege Hanley for my hair every morning. Works even better than Pete & Pedro
Aaron VanderDeen: i got this pomade hair product from a barber shop, it's Sada Pack Cosmetics, and it's the best hair product i've ever used, in my opinion. I used to use that Axe paste, but i always found that it has a greasy feeling to it whenever i go and style my hair.
dirtrock1: Hey Alpha I really enjoy your no nonsense videos. Your info is always helpful. I am wondering if you have ever tried Suavecito pomade. They are out of Santa Ana, Ca.and my stylist insists upon it. Just wondering if you could do a review on it and tell us if it is all that. Thanks
Mihailo Zimonjić: great video alpha. always great content. little advice 4 all of u that use hair products. dont ever buy got2be fiber. it is like putting an oil in the hair. 0 hold, nice smell tho but no hold and sooo greacy
Alpha C: This guy is made my life much better he has inspired me to get up early have a good morning and nighttime routine eat healthier and style my hair and also work out more and do the thing I love playing football every day Alpha and Mesut Ozil are my two biggest idols.
enn 1922: you need to try the Schwartzkof wax fouetté, hold 4. It has memory. You style your hair. Leave it for 10 minutes. Put a cap or an helmet, Keep it for 1 or 2 hours. Take it off. Hair comes back to your initial style. Magic.
slender cream: I use the old spice pomade (different from the putty) and I find it works fine
James Davies: I'd love to see you review black label out of the UK they do and amazing pre styler smells amazing and matte profile putty. Really professional packing they used to do the full size product and pre styler from absolutely free to try.
Dan Logrono: Axe can be difficult cuz they have different types of gel for different types of hair styles. I use the purple one cuz my hair is more of clean cut style.
MrGeary08: Have you ever thought about going into retail stores? I would recommend tying to partner with Target, they are really trying to add a bunch of new products from smaller companies and I think it would sell really well. I personally use Pete and Pedro and work at target, i can tell you my opinion is that they would mix well. Not only would it help you out by reaching more people but it would help Target as it continues to improve and grow.
sMiLey Warrior: The best thing to do is in the store is to open the product and find one that’s filled to the top so you don’t end up going home and wonder in confusion. Also most of the time the product is measured in weight. It’s like buying a bag of family sized lays chips only to go home and find that it’s only half filled and the other half was just air. It is what it is but as a consumer you do expect the product to be full to the top. I have not tried any of these products but I have never liked Axe products. Got2b is also another shitty brand including old spice. I like using L’Oréal products for men but it’s been a while since I’ve used their products. I typically just put castor oil in my hair or jojoba oil. Don’t put castor oil if you plan on smelling nice cuz the smell is just out of this world lol. Better to use jojoba oil if you’ll be around people. Not to be used as a styling product but more so of a conditioning hair product.
LA Rick: You need to try one that I've been using for the last 4 years now, super awesome product even hair styles can't tell I have any on a d the home is very strong... it's called : fix my lid only at Target usually priced at $9.99 it's a very low shine with a super strong hold .. it has a nice smell.... it's called fix my lid... there is a skeleton head with Elvis looking hair as the cover of the product. .. so check it out again it's called fix my lid and I usually get the blue one... the cool thing Is Walmart has the off brand for $5
Beth Moore: First thing I’m concerned is that American Crew is a professional product and not cheap. Unfortunately some companies have sold out to drug stores and Walmart making it not as exclusive to salons and stylist/barbers
Michael Vitale: I have tried countless trendy products through the decades. I still haven’t found anything that compares to Groom n Clean. Simple, no alcohol, doesn’t dry out, smells great. It’s the go to for 40 years.
Scott K: Alpha the kind a guy to make his gf late for parties because he takes so long to get ready.
MacheteTalk Studios: American crew Still has me sold. I just use a molding clay. And i honestly love it
Cheif Chull: I use old spice putty too, the smell isn't it but I love the loose hold look for my hair
Robert Flatley: Thank you for this, I appreciate you spending like $100 at Walgreens for that product!
TheChosenOne: Wetline Extreme in the black container for $1.99 hasn't failed me. I love that stuff. Washes quickly off your hands with water. Low fragrance smell and mixes well with AquaNet if you're driving with the top down. That combination is fantastic. I apply when my hair is almost dry and I get great results.
Will Walsh: Aaron the type of guy to longer to get ready in the morning than his wife
Matty Matt: I would love to see a comparison between the Pete & Pedro putty and Kevin Murphy Freehold(my current favorite product).
lilcarcrash 21: two questions. Do these products make your hair greasy? and does it damage your hair?
logik23: I would have used 5 over 5 days to see how you like them over the course of the day. You mentioned American Crew may not hold over the course of the day, but never tried it out. Would have a been a better comparison, and you could have taken shots throughout the day to compare
JohnnyRebKy: I bought some Old Spice High Shine Pomade today at Wal Mart. It seems to work pretty good for me....and I like the smell!
Russ Bradshaw: *puts wax in hair* "I don't like it. It feels waxy in my hair."
