What is the Best Hair Cream for men?

Mitch Clean Cut

For those occasions when you need to add a little extra class to your routine, it’s the hair cream’s time to shine. Hair creams are typically best suited to brushed styles, adding a little shape and a little shine to naturalistic looks.

Hair creams are ideal if you have thicker, coarser, or curlier hair which is hard to manage, and perhaps doesn’t respond as well to stickier styling products. But there are plenty of other reasons you might want to try using one.

Put it this way: if you’ve been cultivating your 90s-style curtains, or a longer Ivy League style haircut, you can easily get daily wear out of a good hair cream. Even if you don’t fall within either of these brackets, the hair cream has a place in the cabinet of pretty much any man with hair, ideal for dressier occasions when presenting with a smarter overall package is the goal.

In this post, we take you through the best hair cream for men on Mankind.
