Hailing from Memphis, Tennessee - where it is still manufactured to this day using the original formula - it is little wonder that
Royal Crown is often referred to as Elvis's hair grease of choice. Allegedly that's something of a fallacy, he preferred Black & White. Who really knows (and cares) though? Royal Crown's Hair Dressing is light, bright and smells just like a barbershop should. The formula is very simple, consisting of petroleum jelly, olive oil and perfume. It's the olive oil that makes it good for the hair, unlike many pomades that can seriously upset your natural oil balance. In this sense it's reminiscent of '
Edge Control'. Though i think I know which tub design I prefer.
Royal Crown's Stick Pomade is tinted black and helps to hide gray hairs. It's much heavier than the hair dressing and offers more hold. It's also one of a very few hair greases that fits in your pocket. Both products are suitable for men and women.
