Shop what your barber used. Brosh Original Pomade is the cult Japanese water-based pomade made by barbers, for barbers. It was created in Tokyo by the crews behind Mr. Brothers Cut Club and the legendary Barber Shop Apache. Originally designed to tame thick, dense hair, it gives strong, flexible hold with a medium shine and a fuller look, never sticky or crunchy. Then it rinses out with a single shampoo. 4 oz tin.
Why Our Barbers Love It

Strong hold, medium shine: polished but not greasy.

Water-based: washes out easily, with no oily buildup.
-
PVP hold: firm, re-combable control all day.

Glycerin: keeps hair from feeling dry or stiff.
-
Light, non-sticky texture: easy to spread, even on thick hair.
Best For

How to Use
- Scoop a fingertip-sized amount and warm it between your palms.
- Work through towel-dried or dry hair, root to tip.
