Well, I've recently started using Brylcreem. I've been a dedicated Wildroot (similar ingredients except it also has lanolin) user for a long time and it gives great results, however, I wanted to mix it up a little bit so the Brylcreem tube got broke back out of the grooming stash. I keep a tapered hair cut, long on top with a side part. My hair is dark and very thick so I like a grooming cream and military hair brush to tame it into shape everyday. Not unlike the gents below.
I love the scent and it gives a good, neat look with a good shine. However, I've found that my hair requires more than a "little dab." On the box they suggest a dab "just shy the size of a dime." I've tried that size and it leaves my hair a little dry still, with some fly aways. I find that about a quarter size grooms the best for my hair. I guess you could say for me...
"A big ole' dab'll do ya"
Even with a bigger dab I actually don't find it to be all that greasy.
Other Brylcreem users, how big is your dab? Below, I think the dabs aren't little either. Apparently you are supposed to use 2 brushes at the same time. There are many old advertisements that showed this.
