I know they say we're 20 years behind the rest of the world, but that's taking it a bit too far. Just tell him that no, blokes here don't use that stuff in their hair and you know the saying...When in Rome.

They used to when I was kid - think they still do - only used by those over 80 still fortunate to have hair though.

Brylcream underwent a dramatic change in the UK a few years back, it doesn't come in the old red pot any more does it ?? found a site that does some of the products so with a bit of searching I think you would be able to get it

They sell it everywhere. Today I've seen it in Priceline (similar to Boots) and Coles (Supermarket). Both the red and the blue tub.

I see it everytime I buy hair stuff, no matter where I am.

Failing that you could get him to try using Oz Cottage Cheese... it has a similar taste and consistence to Brylcream
