For the past two years, we consulted with Men's Health's Grooming editors and writers on the best pomades for men. Experts, including our Grooming Editor Garrett Munce, put a number of pomades to the test and evaluated their ingredients, scent, feel, and hold. We also considered whether the pomade was a water or clay-based formula. We also considered top-reviewed pomades that had high customer ratings on e-commerce websites we trust.
