Gel promised you a slick back and delivered a helmet that shattered at 3pm. Slick muk Pomade is the grown-up version — the same polished, wet-look finish, except it never actually dries.
TL;DR: Slick muk Pomade 50g is a water-based, high-gloss pomade from Australian haircare brand muk. It delivers strong hold with a sleek, wet-look finish, stays flexible for restyling, resists humidity and never flakes. Water soluble, so it rinses out easily. The 50g tin is the travel size of the 95g original.
Product Details and Benefits
- Strong hold with a high-gloss finish. Maximum shine and maximum grip in one tin, for hair that looks polished rather than merely tidy.
- It never dries. The formula stays flexible all day, which means you can reshape a part or smooth a flyaway hours later instead of cracking your style in half.
- The sleek, wet look. Ideal for slick backs, sharp side parts, pompadours and any style where you want definition and gloss rather than texture.
- Water-based, wax-free formula. Glycerin and PVP do the holding, with no petrolatum or heavy waxes — which is exactly why it behaves so differently from a traditional oil-based pomade.
- Never flakes. No white flecks, no dust, no gel residue on your collar.
- Humidity resistant. Style longevity through heat and humidity, so the slick back stays slicked back.
- Water soluble. It washes out with water and shampoo rather than requiring a degreasing operation.
- Smoothing and frizz control alongside the shine, so the finish reads sleek instead of merely shiny.
- Best suited to medium and coarse textures, and recommended by muk for straight, wavy, curly and frizzy hair, across blonde, coloured, grey and non-coloured hair.
- Coconut and vanilla bean fragrance. Warm and sweet, and a long way from the usual barbershop clichés.
- 50g screw-top tin. The travel size for touch-ups on the go. The 95g tin is the full-size option for home.
- PETA-accredited cruelty free. muk is 100% approved and accredited by PETA as cruelty free.
How to Use
- Apply to completely dry hair for maximum hold, definition and gloss.
- Emulsify between your palms until the pomade turns completely clear. Skipping this leaves patchy, over-loaded sections.
- Comb or rake it through from the front hairline back, then shape your part or slick it down.
- Want it locked in for a long event? Finish with muk Hair Lacquer. It sets without white beading.
Pro tip: muk's own stylists recommend it for upstyling and sleek ponytails — run it through the lengths before you gather the hair, and you get a glassy, tight finish with no flyaways and no crunchy gel edges when the ponytail moves.
