I like to use Brylcreem to slick my hair back, but I can't seem to find any here. Is it available in Korea? If not, has anyone found a similar hair cream?

Back in the day, when I had a luscious head of hair, I found that vaseline or a handful of warm pork fat would give the same results.
I know that both are easily available here in Korea.

Sadly, male pattern baldness has taken its toll in recent years and I no longer have the need for these wonderful hair tonics.

I've seen Brylcreem at a few black market stores in Sinchon (Daju Shopping Center) across Hyundai Dept. Store.

You've saved me thousands of won in experimentation. Very Happy I do appreciate it.

That's right. A little dab we'll do ya.

Actually, I don't understand how people can use gel on a daily basis. The alcohol in it dries my hair out something fierce.
