Whether you're rocking a classic side part, a modern pompadour, or a rugged textured crop, this pomade is your secret weapon.
But like any premium grooming product, getting the most out of Hurricane Hold Pomade requires more than just scooping and smearing. In this guide, we'll walk you through the best practices for application, styling techniques for different hair types, and how to pair this pomade with other Duke Cannon essentials for a complete grooming routine.
Understanding Hurricane Hold Pomade
Hurricane Hold® Pomade is a water-based pomade that provides a strong, long-lasting hold with a natural to low shine finish. Unlike oil-based pomades, it washes out easily with water, making it perfect for daily use. Its unique formula is designed to give you the control of a wax without the stiffness, allowing you to restyle your hair throughout the day.
The pomade's name says it all: it's built to withstand wind, rain, and humidity. If you have thick, unruly hair that tends to defy gravity, this pomade will help you tame it into submission. It's also great for finer hair types because it adds volume and texture without weighing hair down.
- Water-based formula for easy washout
- Strong yet flexible hold
- Natural finish with low shine
- Works well in humid conditions
How to Apply Pomade Like a Pro
Start with clean, towel-dried hair. Pomade works best on slightly damp hair because it distributes evenly and helps lock in moisture. Scoop a small amount—about a fingertip's worth—and rub it between your palms to warm it up. This makes the pomade easier to spread and prevents clumping.
Apply the pomade starting from the back of your head and working your way forward. This ensures even coverage and prevents over-applying at the front, which can look greasy. Use your fingers to comb through your hair, distributing the product from roots to tips. Once applied, style your hair as desired using a comb or your hands.
- Use a pea-sized amount for short hair, a dime-sized amount for medium length
- Warm the pomade between your palms for easier application
- Apply to damp hair for best results
- Style with a comb for a polished look, or with fingers for a textured finish
Styling Tips for Different Hair Types
For thick, coarse hair, Hurricane Hold is your ally. Apply a slightly larger amount and focus on the roots to get maximum control. Use a comb to create a clean part or a slicked-back style. The strong hold will keep even the most stubborn strands in place.
If you have fine or thinning hair, use a smaller amount and apply it mainly to the mid-lengths and ends. This adds texture and volume without making your hair look flat. Avoid applying directly to the scalp to prevent buildup. For a natural look, use your fingers to tousle and shape.
- Thick hair: use more product and comb for a structured style
- Fine hair: use less product and focus on the ends for volume
- Curly hair: apply to damp hair and scrunch for defined curls
- Straight hair: use a comb for a sleek finish
Pairing Hurricane Hold Pomade with Other Duke Cannon Products
For a complete grooming routine, consider using Hurricane Hold Pomade alongside other Duke Cannon favorites. Start your day with a refreshing shower using the THICK® Body Wash - High Country to cleanse and invigorate your skin. The rugged scent of High Country complements the subtle fragrance of the pomade, creating a cohesive aroma.

After your shower, apply Best Damn Beard Wash - 6 oz. to keep your beard clean and soft. A well-groomed beard pairs perfectly with a styled hairstyle. If you're looking for a stronger hold for special occasions, you might also consider News Anchor® Classic Pomade - 4.6 oz for a shiny, classic look. However, for everyday wear, Hurricane Hold is your go-to.
