The american hair dressing of the 1950s

A greasy white cream with the original sweet-dry fragrance that has been used by men allover the USA back in the fifties. The famous jingle "A Little Dab'll Do Ya"(R) made Brylcreem so popular that it was derived by Fred Flintstone as "Yabba Dabba Doo". Does not dry out hair since it does not contain any alcohol.

Brylcreem is very easy to use, gives a light hold and a high shine. A dab of Brylcreem - just shy of the size of a dime - helps style your hair the way you want it. That's because its conditioning action leaves hair soft, healthy and manageable without stickiness of gels or sprays or the greasiness of pomade. And Brylcreem is alcohol-free, so it won't dry your hair. Leaves hair healthy & manageable.

In the fifties hair creams, like Brylcreem or Wildroot, became very popular and every hair tonic brand had to have a cream dressing of its own. Like Vaseline Cream or Vitalis Cream.

The logo of the US-Brylcreem and the black packaging is an american icon. It just looks like from the 1950s or 1960s.

Brylcreem was first advertised in the USA on TV by the jingle "Brylcreem — A Little Dab'll Do Ya!".
Lyrics for the Brylcreem jingle:

"Bryl-creem, a little dab'll do ya,
Use more, only if you dare,
But watch out,
The gals will all pursue ya,--
They'll love to put their fingers through your hair.
Bryl-creem, a little dab'll do ya,
Bryl-creem, you'll look so debonair.
Bryl-creem, the gals will all pursue ya,
They'll love to RUN their fingers through your hair."

When the dry look became popular, the last line was changed to, "They'll love the natural look it gives your hair."
