BluMaan Pomade | Honest Review

[@ManForHimself]

Have you used BluMaan products? You can upload your pictures and leave your own reviews on the product pages here: manforhimself.com/product-tag/blumaan/

[@bkopgamer]

Robin James yes I have in fact. The only one that I use the most is Cavalier Clay which is the best product for my thick hair.

[@wuhong5190]

Nice

[@bradylewis9698]

Brian Kop have you tried Ocean Clay by Shehvoo? I have thick hair as well and that's what I normally use. Haven't tried any BluMaan products tho.

[@ad_182_uk]

Robin James tried original - found it a bit greasy. Now use monarch but still looking for something more matte with better hold.

[@2kBerlin]

@RobianJames can you please try Hudson & mane?

[@joeisblu]

Thanks Robin! our products scent is one of the biggest criticisms our products get... something I want to revisit down the line. appreciate the feedback

[@kevinbeharrilal1609]

You better had and change the scent of the Pomade Joe i like it but the scent is not for me man i will appreaciate that very much

[@wuhong5190]

Lol

[@seihyuni]

BluMaan I just feel like y’all need better products in general. At least for finer hair types. The line up is pretty counter productive and seems like it’s only catered for people with either thick hair or a lot of finer hair.

[@seihyuni]

BluMaan id love to support joe, and so far I’ve bought the whole line and tried each product, but they’re just not good for my hair. If you guys come out with a killer product trust me I’ll be first in line. Till then, brands like Shear Revival and Lockharts have huge competitive advantages

[@ManForHimself]

What's your favourite product?

[@kevinbeharrilal1609]

I always use Original by Blumaan when im blowdrying my hair since it has a heat protectant or a mousse with argan oil as pre stlyers the mousse is more my go to and I usually finish with Monarch Matte Paste I also love using my home made Coconut oil i did realise my hair looking more full when using the Coconut oil after 3 weeks Edit: i also use Cavalier Clay for my mustache and head hair depending what hairstyle i want really its just a mixture and my mood My favourite product is: Coconut oil because without it i would of not be able to grow all the hair i have now i went from a buzz cut to a sidepart pomp by listing to your advice on youtube i can now rock a decent hairstyle and more

[@mihaiivanus1305]

Finally it's here, great review as always! Was undecided what to choose between this and pink pomade from Reuzel. I know, one oil based and one water based but seeing both in your review, I'll go with Reuzel. It looked much better in you hair. A big thanks in helping me out. Cheers

Hi Robin hope you are in fine health. I just wanted to pick your brains. I have thick south Asian hair, and usually wear it in a business style side part with a pomp. I am looking for a product that will give me shine but high hold, I dont want the stiff finish a pomade gives. What product should I use. For casual days I use the Vo5 paste and is amazing...but need a wet look for work...any guidance will be greatly appreciated

Hey robin , can you do review for Morrocon Oil texture clay ? At this point I only trust your videos.

[@bodieloescher6147]

Hi I am looking for the best products out there and the new blumann original (blue container) is one of the top choices for mine so far. I do my hair similar to BluMaan and wondering if there any other similar or better products to check out. I tried using the new original from blumann dry but it doesn't hold well in my hair and falls down and doesn't even get the shape or volume of how I style my hair. In order to make this product work I have to get my hair wet then put it in and then it holds it quiet well all day long after a little hair spray too ( I use tresemmee antihumidity with like I think 4 circles). It kinda sucks how this blumann original does not work while my hair is dry and not sure why. All in all, I have tried MANY different hair products and wondering what the experts like yourself think. To recap, from everything I have tried the new original blumann is the best. Before that I used to use 3 in 1 over achiever, but they changed the product. Thanks!

[@GustavRex]

How long would you consider long sides? As in, what is the maximum length sides can be before they are considered "Long sides"? Of course in your opinion, that is.

[@ManForHimself]

Ooh, well it depends what suits you. I would say longer is anything over shaved.

[@Ophius]

Marcelo #803 I just bought this last week and I'm liking it, mostly the washout. I'd be happy to answer questions if you have any.

[@accountsequity5587]

I do have questions. I want my hair to look relaxed but still have a pretty decent hold (doesn’t have to be a real true high hold), i want some shine but nothing crazy I don’t want my hair looking greasy. I dont care about washability that much tbh. I want something that it’s easy to apply i dont want something sticky, and finally something that is easy to style.

[@Ophius]

​@@accountsequity5587 I find the hold to be pretty decent. Use slightly lesser to get a more natural-looking medium hold, use more if you want to go up to a firm. The washout means you'll need to be very careful with water use during styling and restyling, but slightly damp hair should give you what you need in terms of hold too. I find the product is more a neutral to neutral shine. YMMV since shine differs for everyone. It applies quite easily in dry hair. Minor tugging and hair pulling, but nothing alarming. I have medium-length and thick hair (especially now that it's been some time since my last cut), and dry hair styling is not painful. All other high hold products had a lot of tugging even in damp hair. Styling is fairly easy with this unless your hair is getting long, thick and/or unkempt. That happens with most products anyway, though. I'm not sure what you mean by sticky. Your hair doesn't feel or look sticky, but running your hands through your hair will get the product on your hand and it will be slightly sticky. Honestly if you're not worried about washability, Fifth Sample does what you need, but so does a lot of other products.

[@accountsequity5587]

Max May thanks man! I think I will buy it

[@Ophius]

Marcelo #803 That's awesome! Again, I have to point out that there are a lot of products that can do what you want, so do check them out too 🙂

[@Mikester4411]

I actually love the smell, mint always has been, and probably always will be my favourite smell (and taste, but that's beside the point for a hair product, haha). I watched a few reviews before I bought this product and most of them said it had a subtle minty smell, and I think that's the correct way to describe it, I wouldn't say it was overpowering at all, when I have the product in I occasionally get a whiff of mint and it's refreshing, so I guess it all depends on personal preference.
