Short and trendy styles can be spiked with a dollop of this pomade, or dry, flyaway hair can be smoothed with just a small dab.

Unlike most gel hair styling products, the American Crew Pomade will not leave your hair crispy, crunchy or otherwise untouchable. Another selling point is the clean, slightly masculine fragrance. The formula combines ginseng and sage for a welcome change from the usual flowery fragrance found in most styling products. This pomade packs a shiny punch with beneficial extracts and oils. The overwhelming consensus among reviewers is that it hold your hair style without getting crusty and flaky.

An electric skillet can be a valuable asset in the home. This 16 inch Presto Electric Skillet provides lots of cooking room without taking up any burners on the stove. This version from Presto is crafted of heavy cast aluminum which makes it durable and warp-proof. The walls are high; combine that with the large cooking area and this large electric skillet can cook up just about anything from morning to night. It’s 1500 watts and has a temperature control that provides consistent heat for frying, roasting and even baking. A keep warm feature turns the skillet from a cooking unit to a serving unit as it “holds” the temperature evenly for a long period of time after cooking.

A tempered glass lid lets the cook peek as needed when in use and even features a stay-cool knob. Also stay-cool are the skillet’s handles. When considering cleaning of the skillet, the nonstick finish is a positive factor. The unit can also be put into the dishwasher when the heating control is fully removed. Online reviews provided by consumers show this skillet is generally well-liked and well-used. With that being said, some reviewers did have issues with the nonstick coating losing its performance after long term use. Also, some consumers found the lifespan limited, but that it did work very well within that performance span, even when used daily. This skillet looks to be a good bet for those who need a large cooking space wrapped in quality construction provided by the Presto name.
