If you read the reviews like most here, you have a good idea of the pros & cons of Reuzel Pink. I echo the general consensus - personally this stuff is my favorite hair product ever. I’ve tried at least 30 different products, of different types (clays, creams, pomades, fibers) from various manufacturers over the years - none of them touch Reuzel Pink. However, the two consistent knocks I read is that Reuzel Pink is a pain to wash out of your hair and off your hands - They are not wrong. I keep medium length hair that is fairly thick and wavy at about 6 inches on the top. I need control with some pliability, something that doesn’t dry out or cause flakes, the ability to re-style, smells good, and gives a look of healthy hair. Reuzel Pink is perfect for all of this. And I love this product so much that I dove in to how to make it more livable, meaning how the hell do I easily get this stuff off my hands and out of my hair when I need to? So, about those hacks to work around these cons... To wash this stuff off your hands, use a mechanics soap like Fast Orange Hand Soap. It seems excessive to have to buy a different soap just to wash hair product off your hands, but these kinds of orange pumice soaps are great in general. Chances are, if you work on cars you’re already familiar with soaps like these. This kind of soap smells great and easily gets Reuzel Pink product off your hands because it’s meant to eliminate grease and oil. As far as easily washing this out of your hair, Reuzel themselves have addressed this. If you search Reuzel Degrease Formula, you’ll find their instructions. Their daily hair conditioner on its own is a great conditioner. The peculiar thing here is that Reuzel instructs you to first apply the conditioner to DRY hair for a few minutes, then rinse it out. Next, Reuzel has a green scrubbing shampoo and a daily shampoo they recommend you use to finish this routine, in that order. I’ve done this and I like those products as well - but I think the key is applying the Reuzel conditioner to dry hair, before shampooing. I don’t always use the green scrubbing shampoo, as the daily shampoo seems sufficient. I also haven’t tried this with other conditioners, but I have used other shampoos with similar success. For me, this makes the Reuzel conditioner a must have, and the Reuzel shampoos as “nice-to-haves.” I don’t ever let myself get down to my last bottle of this conditioner before reordering. So those are workarounds for the only two cons I consistently see regarding this product. Yes, it takes more effort, but I’ve had both men and women stop me to ask what product I use. I’ve never had that happen wearing anything besides Reuzel Pink. I believe that kind of recognition speaks for itself. Hope this helps someone enjoy this stuff.
