Thanks, Dad

It’s time to celebrate the man of the hour! … Or rather the special men in our lives who have gone above and beyond for us throughout countless days and nights. These fathers, whether biological or not, have imparted their wisdom and understanding as we tumble gracefully through all of life’s ups and downs. We take this day to say, “thank you” and show them a tiny bit of appreciation for letting us make them that macaroni tie in the 2nd grade. To help you choose the right gift, we’ve asked a few of our team members about their perfect gift for the Dads in their lives:

Joseph, Bay Brook:

This is my stepdad, Matthew. He is a pediatrician by day, and soccer coach by night; which means, shaving almost every day! Matthew is a creature of habit, and his morning routine is never complete without a shave in the shower. Because of this rigorous schedule, my dad goes through numerous blades in a short time span, just to achieve his signature close shave. My perfect solution for Matthew, is the Lexington Power Razor, with ProGlide Power blades. This product allows him the ease of shaving daily in the shower, while providing a smooth and clean finish, that stands up to his busy lifestyle.

Houston, we have a problem! This is my Dad, Joe. Joe is an engineer for NASA, which means shaving all the time…not his favorite activity! He goes through blade after blade, in pursuit of a close and comfortable shave. Visiting the barber shop has always been an enjoyed pastime, but his schedule rarely permits such a treat. I thought, “Let’s bring the barber shop to him!” Luckily, The Art of Shaving can offer the perfect solution. I chose, the Dark Wood Grenadille Straight Razor; for a close and long lasting shave, no longer exclusive to the barber!

Olivia, Tyson’s Corner:

Did you know that most Dads won’t spend the money to take care of themselves? Let’s create an amazing experience by pampering him with a premium barber service! A luxury shaving service with our express facial will truly make him feel like a million bucks.

Buck Dutton, Director of Retail Marketing:

My Dad is a no fuss kind of guy, but when I introduced him to The Art of Shaving in 2006 I knew there was a high probability that it would sit on his counter and just collect dust. I was wrong. He became fascinated by the product and an avid user of all things Sandalwood. In fact, my mother once asked why hadn’t shaved in a few days to which he answer, “I’m out of Sandalwood PreShave Oil!” This past holiday I decided to branch out from Sandalwood and introduce my Dad to the Bourbon Amber line. I held my breath on Christmas morning and soon discovered that he loved it. Since that was a seamless transition, I’ve decided to press forward with the aroma journey and introduce the Bergamot & Neroli collection to him and his bathroom. I know he’s going to enjoy this summery edition and will soon become his favorite trio of Pre-Shave Oil, Shaving Cream and After Shave Balm
