A staple in barber shops for well over 100 years, hair tonics are the unsung heroes of hair maintenance. Known as an “old school” styling product, tonics generally help the hair to look glossier and shinier while invigorating the hair follicles and encouraging growth.
At the barber shop they’re often used as part of a scalp massage, with the tonic being massaged deep into the hairs roots to stimulate circulation. They also help to combat dandruff, repair split ends and may also be used on facial hair!
At Barber Blades we encourage healthy hair growth so we’ve got a wide range of hair tonics, perfect for all hair types! One of our most popular tonics comes from Clubman Pinaud, who have been around since 1810 and have built a reputation on being the grooming brand for gentlemen. The Greaseless Hair Tonic still has the same essence as it did when it was originally produced in France in the early days, why fix it if it isn’t broke? The ingredients manage to keep hair neat without any grease, which is a common complaint about a lot of other tonics. Clubman Pinaud also have an Eau De Quinine tonic and an Eau De Portugal which are a must try!
Another brand our customers love is Fab Hair. They offer a wide range of tonics which differ in scents but never differ in quality. It is encouraged to use Fab tonics as part of your daily routine and it’ll make you feel like a champion! As a barber, they’re the perfect retail option as they’re extremely affordable and the variation in scents means your customer can find a smell perfect for them. They come in 100ml and 250ml bottles and 7 different scents, perfect!
