Special Edition
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Special Edition, Super Hold & Summer Edition?
All 3 formulas are based around the Summer Edition base formulation with variations in fragrance, product color and label artwork. All three feature the same hold and shine levels.
All three feature a strong hold that's suitable (and best) for controlling unruly, thick and hard to manage hair types.
What does Cedarwood & Vanilla Smell like?
It is a nostalgic fragrance that evokes memories of aromas found in a traditional American barbershop. It's nice, trust us.
Should the Special Edition be applied to wet or dry hair?
I recommend you apply this product to lightly damp or dry hair.
PRO Tip: If you need maximum hold from this product apply to dry hair, but make sure to warm the product between the palm of your hands thoroughly to make sure it spreads and combs easily.
Never apply to wet hair, you will get zero hold and you'll just waste pomade. It's a sin to waste pomade.
Can the Special Edition be restyled throughout the day?
Yes, lightly misting hair styled with water-based pomade like the Original Hold will reactivate the product, allowing the hair to be restyled with ease. Once the product has had time to dry and set, the hold will return and order will be restored to the world.




Smells nice and it holds my thick hair well but its not that shine as they advertised once i put it in my hair its just looks dry no shine at all for the price i think suavecito pomade is better
Everything about it is good excpet they seemed to not fill it up. They shorted me. My hair is very stubborn but with this pomade i put my hair in check. the feel the smell the look is awesome. I would of gave 5 stars if you guys would of filled it up
Works perfectly on my mustache
I've tried soap brows and boy brows, and this is the only gel that locks my eyebrows in place. I like my brows bushy and lifted, and this does the trick without getting flaky or falling flat. It even holds through my bicycle commute in the Florida heat. I use a spoolie brush to comb it through my brows backward, and then I go upwards and fan it to dry faster. Although this feels like a lifetime supply now, I plan to repurchase it when it inevitably runs out.
I first got Themis for my eyebrows, didn’t work out like I wanted. I use this for my hair now and I love it! I only wear my hair in a sleek bun so it really helps keep the hair in place and isn’t stiff, no white cast. It’s my new favorite product!
Me gusta mucho mi peinado dura todo el día y es fácil de limpiar lo uso todos los días
This works miracles... I like how it keeps my eyebrows nice and in place the whole day but I deducted a star because of the strong smell to it. It didn't bother me at first but I felt like it followed me throughout the whole day lol
If you hair is hard to manage, this is the stuff for you. Scent is nice, not super strong. Bona Fide makes the best pomade and this particular one is the only one that works on my very thick and hard to manage hair. You can style it using combs, brush or your hands and this will give you the exact right amount of hold you need. I use a very small amount when I want a more relaxed look and a bit more for a more defined look. My barber even asked me what I use on my hair because he was so impressed with the way it worked on my hair when styled. The shine is not super strong and not super matter; about middle and that is how I prefer it.
