Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Summer Edition & Infinite Summer?
Infinite Summer (formerly known as Endless Summer) is the original formula released in 2018.
Summer Edition is the new 2025 version of Infinite Summer which uses the same base formula (hold and shine) but with a slightly different Sweet Pineapple & Melon fragrance and updated packaging artwork. This formula will eventually replace the Infinite Summer.
The fragrance house that we used to source the Infinite Summer fragrance "refocused" their business to serve conglomerate brands. They effectively stopped serving small independently owned businesses, so we lost the ability to source this fragrance. They stopped answering emails...
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.
Should Summer 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 Summer Edition be restyled throughout the day?
Yes, lightly misting hair styled with water-based pomade like the Summer Edition 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.
The summer edition pomade is my go to pomade for the last couple of years, it holds my thick difficult hair for well over 24 hrs!
Best product I've found for using with my mustache. It is pliable and holds my mustache curl all day! I've tried many products before but this one has been the easiest and strongest and can curl the stubborn straight hair into place. I don't really care for the smell though which is like some sort of fruity Pina colada but it's a foar tradeoff. I use it without wetting my mustache first BTW.
This pomade has a very light, fresh scent. I like that it's not overpowering, but I wish it smelled slightly more tropical, befitting the beachy vibe. It just smells more like citrus. I love the fun graphic on the label. It says "extra strong hold,"which I questioned at first, but seeing as this is a pomade and not a gel, I suppose it could be accurate. I have chin-length hair, and this does a good job at smoothing things out, keeping a shape, and taming flyaways, while still keeping hair flexible and moldable. I just use a little bit. If I use too much, it looks greasy. It definitely isn't, though. It washes out very cleanly and easily. All I have to do is rinse it out in the shower and it comes out without even using shampoo.
Bona Fide Summer Edition Pomade locks my hair in place with extra-strong hold yet rinses out under one shampoo—no waxy buildup. The pleasant pineapple-melon scent leans sweet but fades after an hour or so. Four ounces cost less than many salon brands and the water base means easy restyling with a splash of water.
