According to Mirriam-Webster a pomade is, “A fragrant hair dressing”; a hair dressing is, “A preparation for grooming and styling the hair”. The same source defines a brilliantine as, “A preparation for making hair glossy”. This is important because I’m reviewing JS Sloane Middleweight Brilliantine and in order to give you a useful review I need to have the right set of expectations.
JS Sloane, as you know if you read my review on their excellent Lightweight Pomade, is a New York based company founded by Joann Kuno and Smutty Smiff that specializes in men’s hair care products. They have a very sophisticated vintage look to their packaging. It’s very handsome, reminding me of a pipe smoke filled personal library in the 40’s.
