Pomade vs. Putty: What's the difference?

About this video

McGoff compares Old Spice’s putty and pomade hair products by demonstrating how each performs on his freshly cut hair, evaluating their hold, finish, scent, and suitability for different hair lengths and styles.

Key takeaways

• McGoff recommends putty for shorter hair and spiky styles due to its stronger hold, while pomade works better for medium-length hair with medium hold
• McGoff notes both products have a pleasant, mild scent that doesn’t overpower and won’t compete with cologne or deodorant
• McGoff argues the putty provides more hold that lasts throughout the day, whereas pomade may require reapplication depending on hair length and desired style
