For me, it’s definitely in my rotation, along with Vitalis. My Brylcreem story; When I was about 9 years old my late father was helping me get both dressed and groomed properly. ( I have Cerebral Palsy and use a wheelchair to get around). He was putting toothpaste on my toothbrush. Unbeknownst to me, one day instead of putting toothpaste on the toothbrush, he accidentally put Brylcreem on it instead. NOT a pleasant experience, I must say. Love the channel. Thanks
My barber recommended I use styling cream instead of gel because I don't like my hair getting crunchy. I got Old Spice styling cream because you can't go wrong with old spice right? Wrong. It still made my hair feel hard occasionally. The next time I went in I asked what he recommends specifically and he pulled out his tube of brylcreem. It's what he uses on me, and I love it. I just went out today and bought my own tube since I just got a new job and new beginnings are the perfect times for new looks. I love how cost-effective brylcreem is, but it also works wonders on my hair. I'm 19 and I just recently started actually caring about my appearance, and when it comes to hair, brylcreem is my go-to. 95 year old product that can withstand time, it must be good
I'm glad Brylcreem came through for you! I'm always happy to hear it when someone discovers something that works for them among the classics. Thanks for being part of the channel!
I use that when I’m going to be indoors and have my hat as it’s not to strong and that hat traps the scent so when I take my cap off it smells good and my hair looks good as well
I used to find it everywhere but lately it has been removed from the stores I frequent probably due to being a slow/low selling item, Amazon has it so no worries.
From my understanding of the British Brylcream that comes in a jar, it isn't as greesy as the American version of the product. In this instance, I would much prefer the British version of Brylcream over the American version simply because I just don't like greesy hair. You use the product to help comb your hair, and style, even to train it the way you want to train your hair, however no need to greese it up and plaster it down, that gets rather gross looking. British Brylcream would be my choice in a jar if it were made available here in the United States.
Right above your head is a bottle of Vitalis. A much BETTER product I should say. Brylcream is OK if you want greesy looking hair, then again, depends upon how much of it you put into your hair, and it got to be just a small application and that's totally, it. A small application is all ya need with every other day hair washings, that's the answer to it.
@@classicalgrooming And I'm gonna ask you to keep this up! I want to see you continue to use these hair loations and hair creams and give your professional take on them. I appreciate everything that your doing, please keep it up!!
@Classical Grooming ok, thanks! If you want to get a great old-fashioned scented aftershave, get "Wet the face: vintage barbershop" you'll thank me later. :) great video!
I imagine that you can, although I would recommend wetting lightly your hair with water (or better yet, a hair tonic) and just restyling. It will reactivate the cream and you won't have to put more on.
With this stuff, you only need one small application of it and nothing more. If you want to recomb your hair, then comb your hair using just water, that all ya need.

Wildroot Hair Cream works pretty good to. You should try Wildroot Hair Cream, it's a real good training cream to use for your hair to.
Straight to the point; TY!

Amen!
I used to find it everywhere but lately it has been removed from the stores I frequent probably due to being a slow/low selling item, Amazon has it so no worries.
At least in my neck of the woods, you can still find it at Walmart, Albertsons, and a couple of other places. Fingers crossed it stays that way!
Fun fact: Both Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon used Brylcreem, while Gerald Ford used Vitalis. Make of that what you will.
Ha! I love historical grooming trivia like this.
i love the British one better.. the red jar... but i have the Indian one and a few others (Mexico)... all good, but each smells different

Might want to try Wildroot hair cream. That is a much BETTER product than Brylcream will ever be.
Ahh I miss the scent and shine.
The 60's version in the red and white tube had a really great smelling scent to it. Not sure the newer ones have any scent at all to them.
What aftershave did you find had a similar or same scent as Brylcream?
Phoenix Artisan's Accoutrements "DAP". It may be discontinued by now.
I used brylcreem as a young man. now i no longer have hair to do so! The hair has all migrated downward :))
They're selling this tube on Amazon for some amount. I wonder if it's original/authentic, could you please give your inputs?
I couldn't tell you if it is authentic or not, but the black and red box on Amazon US is about the same price as what you can get in stores.
@@classicalgrooming so does it mean that they are still manufacturing the product?
I thought it is being falsely sold or counterfeit item.
@@Siddharth-iw6gs Yes, It's still being made. I'm quite happy about that!
What is the aftershave that you said matches it?
Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements makes (or made?) an aftershave called "DAB" that is a fragrance dupe of Brylcreem.

@@scott236 "Wet the Face". Ha! I'll have to put it on the "Try" list. Thanks for contributing!
can you apply the cream on your hair more than once a day?
I imagine that you can, although I would recommend wetting lightly your hair with water (or better yet, a hair tonic) and just restyling. It will reactivate the cream and you won't have to put more on.
With this stuff, you only need one small application of it and nothing more. If you want to recomb your hair, then comb your hair using just water, that all ya need.
@@classicalgrooming oh so the brylcreem doesnt just dissolve or get absorbed?
@@danbasta3677 is there a limit to how many times i can add water to restyle? will the cream wash out if i put to much water during the day?
@@OBnice777 No, it stays in the hair until it is washed out.
