Don't Touch the Hair

 

…and we’ll be just fine

What is grease, pomade, gel, wax, etc., that you put into your hair?  It’s exactly what it is.  It’s junk that you put into your hair and at the end of the day you wash out.  Now, I’m not going to get into a debate on if it’s bad for your head or if it helps your hair grow.  The Granolas that pour tons of their money into hair products on the premises that what they apply will help their hair grow are asleep.  I will quote an indian who once said,

“Hairs are only dead cells.  It is not living growth.  If it was, you’d scream your head off getting a hair cut.”


 

 

If there is one thing I will say about grease, is that it looks damn good and holds your hair in place better than anything out there.  When I am talking about grease, I am actually talking about the hair products such as Royal Crown or Murray’s.  There are many types of grease out their and you could even go as far as actually using cooking grease (which they did back in the day and which I don’t recommend) but it’s Royal Crown and Murrays which sells the most.  They are actually a house hold name.  Murrays was made to be stronger than Royal Crown because the hair of black males is more difficult to manage than the hair of white males.  With all the types of hair products out there and your decision as to what you want, let’s look at the pros and cons of the Murrays and Royal Crown compared to other dressings you would see on the shelves.

Cons:  a little odorous, can be a little hard to wash out, scalp buildup 

Pros: Inexpensive, easily accessible, harmless, gives the best look 

So as you may have both pros and cons to these products, the truth is that they serve the same purpose and deliver just as well if not better.  There are things out there that are better at a lower price and in this case, it’s grease in a can.  Just take the word from…
