Glory Pomade Paste is a whipped, spongy styling paste from Glory By Us, made for textured hair. It melts on contact and gives beards, curls and waves an invisible hold with a clean, natural finish, without grease or cake, and it washes out clean. One jar covers your beard and your hair.
Quick answer
Pomade Paste is good for beards because it lays every stray hair down with an all-day hold and zero weight, leaves a clean, natural finish instead of a greasy one, and washes out clean at the end of the day.
What this guide is best for: anyone with a textured beard who wants it neat, shaped and clean-looking from morning to night, with one product that also works on waves and curls.
What makes Pomade Paste good for a beard?
It holds the beard in place without making it feel heavy or look greasy. The paste is light, whipped and spongy, and it melts into an invisible hold with a clean, natural finish. On a beard, that means the shape stays where you put it and the hair still looks like hair.
Here is what the Pomade Paste page says it does:
- All-day hold, zero weight: the beard keeps its line without feeling coated.
- Lays every stray hair down: the flyaways along the cheek and jaw sit flat.
- No grease, no cake: it does not sit on top of the hair in a shiny film.
- Washes out clean: nothing left behind when you wash your face at night.
- Built for beards, curls and waves: from fresh cuts to deep wolfing phases.
How is it different from a heavy grease?
A heavy grease sits on the hair; Pomade Paste melts into it. That is the difference you see in the mirror.
| Heavy grease | Glory Pomade Paste | |
|---|---|---|
| Feel | Thick and heavy | Light, whipped, spongy |
| Finish | Wet, greasy shine | Clean, natural finish |
| Hold | Weighs the hair down | All-day hold, zero weight |
| End of the day | Hard to wash out | Washes out clean |
For a beard, a light product matters. A beard is close to your skin all day, and you want it to look sharp, not slick.
How do you apply Pomade Paste to a beard?
Use a small amount, warm it first, then work it in and brush it down. The whole routine takes a minute.
- Scoop a dime-sized amount.
- Warm it between your palms until it melts. The product page calls this waking up the botanicals.
- Work it through the beard from root to tip, covering the cheeks, jaw and chin.
- Brush it down with steady pressure to lay every strand without lifting.
- Look at the line in the mirror and add a little more only where a stray hair still stands up.
Start small. You can always add a second layer; taking too much back out is harder.
Why brush your beard after the paste?
Brushing spreads the paste evenly and lays the beard in one direction. The paste gives the hold; the brush gives the shape.
The Brush (Your Hair) uses 100% pure boar bristles with a soft/medium feel and a curved surface that mirrors the natural contours of your head and face. For beard grooming, the brush page says to use steady pressure to lay every single strand without lifting. The same brush, with long, deliberate strokes from the crown outward, locks in a wave pattern, so one tool covers your beard and your hair.
This is why Glory's motto is simple: brush your hair. The process matters as much as the product.

Can one jar cover your beard, waves and curls?
Yes. Glory says Pomade Paste works for waves, curls, beards, slick-backs and buns, so the same jar sits on your shelf for all of it.
- Beard: warm a small amount, work it in, brush it down.
- Waves: brush it through with long strokes from the crown outward, fresh cut or deep in a wave phase.
- Curls: work it through with your fingers for definition and a clean finish.
- Slick-backs and buns: smooth it back to lay the edges and hold the shape.
At night, the Glory durag is the final step of the routine: after the paste and the brush, tie the wide, flat bands smoothly over your crown, without tension, to lock in the moisture and protect your waves through the night or throughout the day.
Frequently asked questions
How much Pomade Paste should I use on my beard?
Start with a dime-sized amount, warmed between your palms until it melts. That covers most beards. If a few stray hairs still stand up after brushing, add a little more only on those spots. A light layer keeps the all-day hold without any weight, which is the point of a whipped paste.
Does Pomade Paste leave a greasy feel?
No. The product page describes it as light, whipped and spongy, melting into an invisible hold with a clean, natural finish, with no grease and no cake. That is what makes it a good fit for a beard, which sits close to your skin all day and should look sharp rather than slick.
Does Pomade Paste wash out?
Yes. Glory says it works instantly and washes out clean. Wash your face and beard as usual at the end of the day and the paste comes out with it, so you start fresh the next morning with a new, small amount and a quick brush to set the shape again.
Do I need a brush to use Pomade Paste on a beard?
You can work it in with your fingers, but a brush gives a cleaner result. The Glory boar bristle brush lays every strand in one direction with steady pressure, spreads the paste evenly, and helps the beard line look sharp. The same brush also works for waves and fresh cuts.
Can I use Pomade Paste on my hair and my beard at the same time?
Yes. Glory built it for beards, curls and waves, and says it also works for slick-backs and buns. Use the same warm-and-work-in routine for each: a small amount, warmed in your palms, worked through from root to tip, then brushed or finger-styled into place.
