What Makes a Great Barber?
Get in a lather.
Ten or so years ago, along came a new phenomenon: the high-end barbershop, which offered the standards and quality of a hairdresser, with the affordability and efficiency of a barber.
The Beauty Behind The Fresh Range
A sensory experience.
It all began with 1,000 bars of triple-milled, vegetable-based, single-note-scented soaps that were handcrafted in southern France.

The World’s Oldest Barbershop
Truefitt & Hill.
This year, Truefitt & Hill turns 210 years old, making it the (Guinness World Record’s book-approved) oldest barbershop in the world.
The Proraso Shave
Mark of a gentleman.
Founded in Italy in 1948, Proraso began as a single product: the eucalyptus-and-menthol-based miracle cream, crema miracolosa, that could be used both before (to soften the skin) and after (to calm irritation) shaving.
Skin Care in Revolt
MenEssentials.
There is an uprising happening among today’s modern men. A revolt against the 2-in-1s, the “everywhere” washes, the jack-of-all-trades shaving creams.
Glossybox
Sample savoir-faire.
You don’t know until you try—this statement rings particularly true in the beauty industry. Fortunately, Berlin–based beauty brand Glossybox offers reprieve from commitment via a convenient subscription service.

In an era devoted to curl-and-set rollers and Elnett Satin hairspray, Kérastase’s launch in 1964 in France made more than a few waves with its treatments for hair and emphasis on care.
