Imperial Barber Grade Products Classic Pomade — 6 oz Water-Based Strong Hold, Low Shine

Classic Pomade by Imperial Barber Grade Products is a water-based, industrial-strength styling pomade that delivers maximum hold with low shine and rinses clean.

Designed for barbers and anyone who wants a dependable, restylable finish, this 6 oz tin combines a firm hold with easy application and water reactivation. The formula performs across hair types: use on damp hair for a softer grip or on dry hair for peak control. Because it’s water-soluble, it washes out without residue while allowing adjustments during the day by simply adding a little water.

How does this pomade give a strong hold without heavy residue?

The Classic Pomade uses a water-based formulation engineered for high hold and easy removal. Unlike oil-based products that build up, this pomade bonds to strands for lasting control yet breaks down with water so washing is simple.

• Industrial-strength hold rated 4/4 for secure styles.
• Water-soluble ingredients that rinse clean.
• Low-shine finish keeps styles natural-looking.

How should I apply it for different looks?

Application technique and hair moisture control the result. Apply to damp hair for softer, flexible styles; apply to dry hair for maximum hold. It also reactivates with water, letting you reshape without removing product.

• For medium hold: emulsify a pea-size amount in damp hands, work through towel-dried hair.
• For maximum hold: apply to dry hair and sculpt with comb or fingers.
• To restyle: mist hair lightly and work product back in to reshape.

Will this work for my hair type and common styles?

Yes—formulated for versatility, it suits thin to thick hair and supports classic pomps, side parts, slick backs, and textured looks. The controlled hold and low sheen maintain shape without a greasy appearance.

• Thick hair: provides strong control and shape retention.
• Thin hair: adds structure without weighing strands down when used sparingly.
• Short to medium lengths: ideal for traditional and modern styles.

How do I combine it with other products for extra volume?

Pairing techniques let you get both lift and lockdown. Use a gel pomade to build volume and wet-look texture, blow-dry to set lift, then finish with Classic Pomade for enduring hold and low shine.

• Apply gel or mousse first for lift; blow-dry to lock volume.
• Lightly work Classic Pomade through hair to secure shape and reduce shine.
• Re-activate with water later for touch-ups without adding more product.

Who is this for? If you want a barber-grade styling product that offers dependable, long-lasting hold without the greasy aftermath, Classic Pomade is built for you. It serves professional barbers needing a reliable workhorse and individuals who want a versatile finish—whether you prefer a traditional, polished look or a textured, modern style. Choose the 6 oz tin for home use, or pick the travel-friendly 2 oz when you’re on the move.
