Hair tonics were most popular in the 50's and 60's...Yes, they smell great and it's healthy for the scalp. Also popular hair products back in the day was Brylcreem "A little can will do ya"....and Vaseline hair tonic.
I'd use older hair tonics like Osage Rub or Eau de Quinine over Brylcreem or Vitalis, which have alot of heavy oils or waxes, none of which are all that great for scalp health in my experience (Vitalis is the least offensive of the two, but it still does have some alcohol wax to increase the hold. It also doesn't really tonify the scalp, it's just for hold only).
Of the hair tonics I've tried, Vitalis is my favorite so far and my favorite hair grooming product. Lucky Tiger ended up being too greasy and weighed my fine textured hair down and Clubman Pinaud wasn't as good (plus I hated the scent of the Clubman tonic as it made me smell like a margarita). Pomades, creams (the only ones I've tried are Brylcreem and Wildroot) and even clays just make my hair look too greasy, stringy and gross looking. Vitalis gives me a nice natural look with better volume, decent hold for my side part business style cut and nice soft hair. It's not perfect but I'm enjoying it. I want to try Jeris without the mineral oil and Osage Rub again as well as Reuzel Grooming tonic.
Thank you Awesome video, I've said it before, but I searched out Hair Tonic videos after watching an episode last year of The Andy Griffith Show, I'm 63 & I swear I've never known about Hair tonic, I saw Floyd the barber on that show always using it or at least asking his customers if they wanted some, & when I was very young & dad use to take me to the barber shop they always used a hair tonic on me after, but they never explained what it was & I never cared to ask, I just thought it was cheap stuff with a decent smell they threw in, until I saw your video, after seeing it that show I decided to see what anyone had to say about it & right away I order 5 Hair Tonics, Jeris, Lucky Tiger, Vaseline, Vitalis & Reuzel, I love all 5 of them & always have them all on hand & use 1 of them daily.
Keeps your hair with a light shine which we all had when we were young . Of course if you don't have much hair /balding , you don't really need it , much. BUT IF YOUR LUCKY , HAVE LOTS HAIR , REALLY GOOD , BEST FRIEND
I put my Jerris (non-oil) hair tonic in a travel spray bottle and apply to my hair and beard that way....I also found out that it cleans my reading glasses very well...One day i decided to spray some on my reading glasses and was like WOW !
You can also comb your hair with a wide tooth comb in the shower as you rinse your hair. Doing so will get rid of splits and it will make your hair feel sorry and smooth -- especially if you do it after applying shampoo or conditioner.
I found this quite informative, I’m looking over probably in 1930 to 40‘s maybe earlier sign for the associated Master barbers of America, Bergen county chapter, number 597, “ IT PAYS TO LOOK WELL” As a guy with no hair at my age now, I was curious about what the hair tonic was, $.25 if you wanted it back then, a haircut was three dollars a shave was 2.50, children’s haircut $2.50 during the week, and an extra $.50 bonus on Saturday for annoying the barber, so I found this quite interesting, I have my grandfathers 1900 KOCH chair and all the photos and even original paper in headpiece of chair looking to sell in north New Jersey USA as I have to downsize… thanks for the video good job, it was Paul’s barber shop Hackensack New Jersey I believe Mercer street
Osage rub is good stuff for promoting better hair growth. Not really as good as OTC solutions like Nizoral or Monoxodil, or perscriptions like finasteride, but it definitely does help stimulate blood flow on the scalp.
Vitalis reset my hair by stripping out the oils. I avoid using unless I am.getting buildup of waxes and oils. I swim daily and products usually wash out. Great podcast. 🏊🏋♂️🦊
Thanks bro. Appreciate all the info... first time using hair tonic and I’m loving it. I always had a dry scalp, but not no more. Can’t believe I never knew about this before. Highly recommend
@@Pablo-ye1jc Since Kev won’t reply,I’ll tell you what I bought. I’ve also had dry hair,and I bought three. First was Clubman Greaseless Tonic (I use it every other day,after the shower),Jeris Hair Tonic With Oil (For hair health,and as a pre styler for extra control and shine with a pomade),and finally Vitalis Hair Tonic (I use for whenever I go out for a bit,or want to feel good at the house,and not have my hair all crazy). If you want something with oil,Jeris is for you,if you want something to just put on and wash out easily,Vitalis then. Clubman Greaseless is something with no hold or shine,but does moisturize well after the shower. Hope this helps.
Osage Rub is both a hair tonic and a facial tonic. That one is from Jeris. So if you want something "that just wakens up your skin" then Osage Rub would be the one.
I used to cut. And you are right. Most barber charge 20+ for a cut no powder, no tonic or aftershave on the line. No oil sheen spray. Just give me money next.........i was train by barbers from 40-80s i cut in the 90s today crew lacking and they really dont know how to build a ticket. When i cut hair cuts were 7-8 dollars my avg bill was 15 per. I sold services. Shampoos scalp treatments, facials, razor shaves beard designs,......i dont know what they teaching today?
I use Duke Cannon's News Anchor pomade, which is plant-based. Much better for your scalp than the oil-based stuff. It's also water-soluble so it washes out super-easily.
I wash my hair every other day. Once a week I use Vitalis. If I want a hair cream, Wildroot works really great to. Once a week applications of Vitalis and or Wildroot is sufficient.
Thank you, great video about hair tonic. Sounds like I need to pick up a bottle of Lucky Tiger . I can’t wait to try your tips. Heavy pomade user in Phoenix.
The grooming tonic contains polymers which provide a little fixation when it dries. It gives a natural dry look. Great for creating volume with a blow dryer. Makes your hair feel pretty coarse though and you can't brush it out. I don't like to use it for that reason.
Good sales hair tonics are the best and it does loosen up the pomade for further styling and its good for dandruff to you should switch out the use of oil and non oil base hair tonic. It is really good for the scalp like adam said i agree with him good job adam.
@@AdamsHairStuff Cheers thanks dude, I found mixing the Reuzel blue hair tonic in a glass bottle with a spray nozzle has been working well. Kind of a frugal dude so half water half tonic works pretty well for me. Shits kinda expensive so this way you can stretch your dollar out and honestly it smells just as good.
I just started using Jeris and I love it! I always hated gel/mousse in my hair. I can't stand the stickiness and how hard it gets. I can't help it it just makes me feel uncomfortable. Jeris makes m y hair soft and so easy to style without the stickiness. I'm looking into starting to use a pomade but it has to be water based...I don't want to look like my hair went through a jiffy lube lol. I was thinking about the clubman light hold...What do you think?
Water based products are better because they won't build up as much, which never made my hair or scalp feed good. Brylcreem has beeswax, which I find to be really heavy after a while and doesn't wash out easily at all, though the newer formulation is better than ones in the past at washing out (VO-5 is the worst, it doesn't wash out easily at all). You might like Groom and Clean. It doesn't have any VA/PVA like hair gels or sprays, it's just a water-based emulsion of lanolin and a little mineral oil and is fairly light if you use a small amount.
@@Magnulus76 If used with a small application of the products you've mentioned, they will wash out, however they will leave a residue, meaning some of is still in your hair. Not to worry, as the next time you wash your hair, you will wash out that left over residue. This is why you wash your hair every other day, and only once a week, you use these hair creams or in the case of VO 5, which is actually petroleum jelly with fragrance added it will eventually break down and wash out, JUST as long as you don't put a whole hand full of the stuff in your hair when only a small application is necessary. Way back when, many moon ago, men had no hair preparations to use for their hair, and yet, Vasiline petroleum jelly was actually used to control and to comb their hair with, that's a known fact. It wasn't until Brylcream came into the market that the big switch happened, after that, Vitalis Hair Loation came on the market, and yes, at one time, Vitalis did indeed have a hair cream, however switched over to a hair loation to in which that's whare they stayed to this very day. Other manufactures came on the market such as Wildroot hair cream which started out as a hair loation, Top Brass by Revlon, Vasiline Hair Tonic which was mineral oil and a fragrance, a hair cream called Trim a blue/white hair cream, Venture Hair Tonic, Heads Up hair loation and Hair cream, there were many hair loations and hair creams and hair dressings available such as Score by Brystal Meyers Incorporated who also marketed Vitalis, and Score was once a liquid before becoming a hair dressing which was made much earlier than Groom and Clean, Code 10 Hair cream I can go on. Sad part of all of this, it has dwindled way down to only two hair products now open and available for men, and that is, Vitalis and Brylcream. Those two are the only ones left on the market for men these days while the others are no longer manufactured. Wildroot is still out there, however very few places carry it, and that's sad because Wildroot is a excellent hair training cream for your hair, IF you only use a small application for your hair and only once a week applications.
Can the ruezel blue tonic be used after washing the hair? I would normally wash the hair with build up in, then use a thickening spray, then blow dry before adding pomade. Could i use the tonic after blow drying to get the build up going again?
I shower in the mornings. The Reuzel hair tonic, could you throw a little bit of that in your hair in the evening to clean or breakdown that days product?
Just seen that u are back, glad to see u again on youtube. I have a question: would tonic help with flakes or dandruff caused by dry scalp. I normally use oily/wax pomades and they feel good. But recently when I'm not at work I started wearing my hair clean or use gel pomade the odd day so I can wash it out easily and I started having flakes that don't seem to go away even with special shampoo. I had flakes before when I stopped using oily pomades but it did go away when I started reusing particularly oily pomades but I want something that make is go away without greasing up.
May I please ask what your hairstyle is so I can tell my barber cause I have been getting undercuts and they don't suit my hair. From what I can kind of tell, It seems like you have a high or mid fade with just a scissor trim at the top, and just blended in betweem
In this video my hair is a bit grown out from a high bald fade on the sides (about a 1 1/2 blade) and the top is about 2 1/12 inches with a lot of texture throughout. Depending on your hair layout you might need to compensate. I also like to keep the shape of my haircut square which is important to mention to your barber. If you have cowlicks on the front of your head this messy texture look will be a lot easier and better to maintain than an undercut. Hope this helps and good luck!
what type of hair styling routine and products do I need to use to get hair that holds good enough without being ruined when my girlfriend runs her fingers through it and is not stiff/hard to get through?
You wouldn't need them at all since your scalp is excessively oily. Just wash your hair in your case once a day will do it since you've said your scalp is excessively oily.
It depends. Alcohol based tonics are ment to be used sparingly. It’s alcohol of course. Use alcohol based tonics maybe 2 to 3 times a week. Oil Based Tonics are mainly for dry scalp,and dry hair. If you have oily hair,maybe not. However,you will probably have to shampoo to wash out the oils. Water based tonics you can practically use almost every day. Just use ALL of them sparingly.
@@AdamsHairStuff Not sure about that. Women have a trillion hair products that are available for them. Let them buy and use what's available for and designed for them. Men today have very little products they can purchase and use for their use. In the 40's 50's and up till the middle 60's there was a lot of products designed and available for men. Now in days, in current times, 2019, there are only three products available for men's hair grooming use, Vitalis, Groom & Clean and Brylcream, which each product mentioned here has changed manufactures hands over the decades. Vitalis was once manufactured by Brystal Meyers, , now a outfit from Texas produces it, Groom & Clean was produced by Chesbourgh Ponds, now Suave produces it, and Brylcream was produced by Smith Kline, which now in days it's produced by Comb Incorporated.
@@evilish7 Not really. One is designed for the hair and scalp while the other is designed with fragrance and alcohol to smootin up and tone up a freshly clean shaven face, and if there is any nicks or cuts, it helps it to not bleed as much and antiseptic to cleanse along with irrigate the nick or cut from a shaving razor.
Unknown Unknown yes! The “unhealthy” ingredients are just preservatives. The Reuzel tonic will give your hair and scalp feeling nice and refreshed. Personally, I use Templeton Tonics they have more natural ingredients and leaves feeling super soft and conditioned. He uses light oils in his product so you will need to put conditioner in your hair and let it sit for ten minutes before washing but let me tell you it’s 100% worth it!
I’ve been using it since it came out along with other kinds of hair tonics that most likely have similar ingredients so far so good but there are also some that are more natural give those a try the will work great! You could also just use just witch hazel which is a great skin astringent! Hope this helps.
I used reuzel tonic. Not a fan. All the chemical ingredients had me worrying about hair thinning and fallout. I use to use it everyday especially applying after a fresh shower. Don't use it anymore. I opt for more all natural tonic.
Lucky Tiger has been around since the 30s yes it's old school but stuff like that is still around for a reason quality and proformance. I'm 23 years old and use nothing but old school products that have been around for decades why because again quality and proformance things in those days were made better than expensive fancy stuff with all sorts of chemicals today that's sold
I just tried the Reuzel Grooming Tonic (yellow one) and it definitely adds volume to thin hair. My hair is not thinning but it's always been fine. Nice 👍 product!
Cut all your hair off man. Now your wearing a hairstyle that was popular from the 50's. At any rate, it's good to hear what ya say about hair loations. I prefer Vitalis hair loation, it works best for my hair.
Is this information peer reviewed? You seem very certain that it stimulates your scalp etc. But, is it science based or just "it's good because I say it is". Link in description and I'll take your word for it.
I shower each day, but I don't wash my hair each day. Washing your hair each day isn't good for your hair or scalp. You probably get super greasy and have to wash it so often, but that's because your oil production is ramped up since it gets stripped off each day.
@Jesus chill out, man. Medicinal substance is another definition. So that medicinal substance can also be taken through consumption. I'm still not wrong.
I’ve tried practically every product mentioned here. All of them are absolutely fantastic. If he is advertising (I don’t think he is) he’s speaking the damn truth.

Can hair.tonic make.hair.longer for men?
I ve been using since I reached 30. Guess my father knew best. Grandpa too. Keeps your hair feeling soft. And that was 30 yrs ago
Does it causes hairfall?

Hey, i need some help with my hair tonics, I’m trying to get a level 10, but I’m stuck at lvl 7. Any tips I should know about?
I use Duke Cannon's News Anchor pomade, which is plant-based. Much better for your scalp than the oil-based stuff. It's also water-soluble so it washes out super-easily.
If you use hair tonic how often do you wash your hair with shampoo?... And if you use pomade how often do you wash your hair?... Thank you
I wash my hair every other day. Once a week I use Vitalis. If I want a hair cream, Wildroot works really great to. Once a week applications of Vitalis and or Wildroot is sufficient.
Can I mix the Tonic with a water bottle spray and put half water and half the tonic? Thanks
I have fine hair, this is perfect, thank you!
The scent is exactly what I don't want from a tonic. I wear cologne every day and I don't want competing scents.
Just dont wear cologne ez clap

Hi, im in Downtown Denver. Wheres' your shop?
Whats the difference between the reuzel hair tonic and the grooming tonic ?
The grooming tonic contains polymers which provide a little fixation when it dries. It gives a natural dry look. Great for creating volume with a blow dryer.
Makes your hair feel pretty coarse though and you can't brush it out. I don't like to use it for that reason.
Can I use a tonic an gel after ????
Or tonic an hair wax styling together???

How much
Throwback!!
Are hair tonics good for oily scalp?
You wouldn't need them at all since your scalp is excessively oily. Just wash your hair in your case once a day will do it since you've said your scalp is excessively oily.
Does tonic dry out on hair
It depends. Alcohol based tonics are ment to be used sparingly. It’s alcohol of course. Use alcohol based tonics maybe 2 to 3 times a week. Oil Based Tonics are mainly for dry scalp,and dry hair. If you have oily hair,maybe not. However,you will probably have to shampoo to wash out the oils. Water based tonics you can practically use almost every day. Just use ALL of them sparingly.
The Reuzel Hair Tonic works well, but I can't stand the smell. It's a very soapy smell.
For Women to que no?
im a woman and i use pomades and i have the jerys tonic but with oil but I’ll be buying a different one with no oil.
Of course! Everyone can benefit from hair tonics. Nice I’m sure you’ll like it! The Jeris one is pretty solid.
@@AdamsHairStuff Not sure about that. Women have a trillion hair products that are available for them. Let them buy and use what's available for and designed for them. Men today have very little products they can purchase and use for their use. In the 40's 50's and up till the middle 60's there was a lot of products designed and available for men. Now in days, in current times, 2019, there are only three products available for men's hair grooming use, Vitalis, Groom & Clean and Brylcream, which each product mentioned here has changed manufactures hands over the decades. Vitalis was once manufactured by Brystal Meyers, , now a outfit from Texas produces it, Groom & Clean was produced by Chesbourgh Ponds, now Suave produces it, and Brylcream was produced by Smith Kline, which now in days it's produced by Comb Incorporated.
Dan Basta only 3 lmao
Lucky tiger uses parabens 🙁
brett scimone fuck that.
Do you use hair tonics daily in addition to shampooing daily, or do you use hair tonic as a shampoo replacement?
In addition , you don't need to shampoo everyday , every 2 or 3 days , unless you get really oily
Which is better for my hard thick hairs? Reuzel hair tonic (non oil) or Lucky tiger (oil) ?
Can I use any of them also as an after shave?
@@evilish7 Not really. One is designed for the hair and scalp while the other is designed with fragrance and alcohol to smootin up and tone up a freshly clean shaven face, and if there is any nicks or cuts, it helps it to not bleed as much and antiseptic to cleanse along with irrigate the nick or cut from a shaving razor.
It is safe to use reuzel hair tonic?this hair tonic contain some unhealthy ingredients
Unknown Unknown yes! The “unhealthy” ingredients are just preservatives. The Reuzel tonic will give your hair and scalp feeling nice and refreshed. Personally, I use Templeton Tonics they have more natural ingredients and leaves feeling super soft and conditioned. He uses light oils in his product so you will need to put conditioner in your hair and let it sit for ten minutes before washing but let me tell you it’s 100% worth it!
I’ve been using it since it came out along with other kinds of hair tonics that most likely have similar ingredients so far so good but there are also some that are more natural give those a try the will work great! You could also just use just witch hazel which is a great skin astringent! Hope this helps.
Dave C great recommendation!
I used reuzel tonic. Not a fan. All the chemical ingredients had me worrying about hair thinning and fallout. I use to use it everyday especially applying after a fresh shower. Don't use it anymore. I opt for more all natural tonic.
Me too. What natural tonic do you use?
Lucky Tiger has been around since the 30s yes it's old school but stuff like that is still around for a reason quality and proformance. I'm 23 years old and use nothing but old school products that have been around for decades why because again quality and proformance things in those days were made better than expensive fancy stuff with all sorts of chemicals today that's sold
I watch your shirt all day. Haha
nice bass foo
5 string too
For those of us of a certain age and who have thinning hair, would you recommend using tonics over gels, pomades, waxes and sprays for styling?
I just tried the Reuzel Grooming Tonic (yellow one) and it definitely adds volume to thin hair. My hair is not thinning but it's always been fine. Nice 👍 product!
Erik Leal Thanks for the advice, stay safe 👍
How long will one bottle of Reuzel last?
Anatolio Sveg lasted me a few months, didn’t use everyday. Loved the smell! 10/10
It lasts me six months of daily use...often as the only styling aid.
Holly shit man get to it!

I thought you drank them because it's says tonic.
Cut all your hair off man. Now your wearing a hairstyle that was popular from the 50's. At any rate, it's good to hear what ya say about hair loations. I prefer Vitalis hair loation, it works best for my hair.
thanks man
I'm sorry okay but the way he describes and holds the hair tonics looks like he's trying to show his wine collection
Who here enjoys Ed Pinaud Compound Hair Tonic?
I haven't tried it yet...but the after shave is AWSOME👍
Is this information peer reviewed? You seem very certain that it stimulates your scalp etc. But, is it science based or just "it's good because I say it is". Link in description and I'll take your word for it.
come on, next day ? You guys don't shower each day, or what?
I shower each day, but I don't wash my hair each day. Washing your hair each day isn't good for your hair or scalp. You probably get super greasy and have to wash it so often, but that's because your oil production is ramped up since it gets stripped off each day.
you didn't mention Pinaud hair tonics man, shame on you!
By the very definition of tonic, these are not tonics. It's a rub, or ointment, tonic is something you drink
@Jesus not what he means though. Tonic is drank like how you would drink water or soda.
@Jesus I did. It's short for tonic water, witch is a hint why its drank through the mouth. Don't call people wrong if you are wrong
@Jesus chill out, man. Medicinal substance is another definition. So that medicinal substance can also be taken through consumption. I'm still not wrong.
@OgGarcioVega is half of your comment actually about a grammar mistake? Get a life. This is TH-cam, not a college essay, dumbass
I hope nun of y’all don’t drink “hair tonic” it’s not tonic water... it’s legit only meant for your hair 🤦🏽♂️
This kind of hair copied by everyone and makes nosense
He's selling so hard don't believe every word 🤭
I’ve tried practically every product mentioned here. All of them are absolutely fantastic. If he is advertising (I don’t think he is) he’s speaking the damn truth.
@@mr.vintage4889it's sad that we have to deal with scams in 2021.
no offence but you got bad haircut I mean your sides sticking out
These aren't even hair "tonics". Tonics are for drinking, not for putting on the body
