Comparison to other Hair Wax: Can anyone tell me how this stuff (all of the Axe line vs the entire Gatsby (Moving Rubber) Line of wax) compares?

Whatever works better than any hair wax, gel, or pomade I've tried. If you're going for a really slicked back look, it's probably not what you're after. If you just want more control of where your hair goes, without a greasy or oily appearance, then Axe Whatever is right for you. It's currently the only styling product I use on my hair, and I've tried too many to count them all.

I didn't buy this.After researching and talking to body shops, i ended up buying the Porter Cable.What i do is apply the wax with it, then wipe most of it off with a towel, then use it to buff. Belive me , you wont be sorry.

I used my own wax and everything seemed okay. I think you should be fine I used my own wax cause I didn't really like the finish the 3m left. I wanted a better shine.

I used to BH hairspray a long time ago, but i remember that i really liked it! I also deff love their BH "after Party" too!

I like it better than the shave oil and it's not as messy. They are both prepping the whiskers for the shave. I feel that this did a better job for me, also this will last longer than the oil. Remember a little goes a long way with this. Wet the face with warm water and rub the pre shave in. This is also a great post shave if you get razor burn. I also use a Merkur, I use the Merkur Futur. Hope this helps.

I don't know the technical answer to this but I've used both and have a preference towards the regular balm. Heavy duty has a green grit that doesn't break down so I feel like my beard is dirty. I think the regular is even a better hold for my beard. HD is a decent hair balm though. Hope that helps.

I did invest in the little Parissa wax warmer and I love it. It heats the wax evenly within 30 minutes, and it brings the wax to the right consistency. I have used the little pan of wax placed in another pan over low heat, but I found it gets messy and I got wax in the other pan. Much easier to do the wax warmer. So convenient. Good luck!

The Ultimate has more synthetic and slicker ingredients. I use both except if I haven't waxed in the last 4 months I use the Ultimate because it puts a greater gloss shine with out a lot of effort. I use all of the Ultimate series (waxes,compounds) and if you do it once you will be sold on it.

I would say that they are about equal. I use the tweezerman at home and the simply beautiful in my travel kit. I would say it boils down to the aesthetics of wood vs. plastic handle.

same here// it still works, just rub it in (on your knees) with a rag (I assume you got it for the floor, I usually do it on my knees anyhow) and pieces will go all over the place but most will rub in. You might have to sweep up the crud left over, but the wax does actually seem to work better and last longer than the johnsons wax-- though I am still not getting it again, make sure you keep windows open for the fumes

I agree, Bruce wax was far superior. Two months ago I did my floors...disappointed, already showing wear. Anyone know where Bruce floor wax is!!

Hairspray is stickier than perfume, as rule. You could try it, but i would guess not.

I was just looking at the bristles today and I'm pretty sure it's something like Rayon or Nylon, not horsehair. Regardless, It's an awesome tool! It gets into all the corners, nooks and crannies. I am not disappointed. If you can find horsehair for only an extra $20, I'd say go for it.

I prefer epilating. Waxing is super messy! Also, you don't have to be buying waxing supplies!

Garth~ The Minwax Finishing Wax is great! Goes on smoothly and has almost No scent at all. I too have used Briwax and I'm trying to use it up (outside) on my refinishing pieces because I don't like the oder either. I recommend that you purchase Minwax. I think you will like it and I also liked the price (1/2 of what Briwax costs!)

It is a very low hold ( in my opinion) and loses that hold throughout the day. I would suggest Layrite original(it's cheaper too and better hold) it smells better and holds better or upgrade to the cream of the water base crop And go with Teddy Boy Original by Anchors Hair Co. I hate American Crew

It has more hold but it is more like a wax, I did not care for it very much. I currently use the American Crew Pomade mostly. Hope this helps.
