TABAC Expands Range with New Beard Oil and Gains New Stockist, Barber Blades

Male grooming brand TABAC has expanded its product range once again, with the addition of a new Beard Oil; building on the success of its fragrance range and shaving products used widely by barbers in the UK, Germany and the Netherlands. The full range of shaving products is now being exclusively stocked at trade prices for barbers by Barber Blades.

TABAC was established in 1959 and is most widely known for the nostalgic scent of its signature fragrance. After the success of the fragrance, a collection of male grooming products was launched by the brand, including a shaving range; which rapidly became a favourite amongst barbers.

The full range has been created with barbers in mind and has just become available to purchase at trade prices through www.barberblades.co.uk; the latest stockist of the products. Although previously focused on a male fragrance and traditional, tallow-based shaving products, TABAC has now launched a Beard Oil to meet the demand from barbers for such a product; given the beard trend that has swept the nation in recent years.

Following the success of Shave The Day in December, a campaign by TABAC in collaboration with Age UK that encouraged barbers to offer free wet shaves, haircuts and other treatments to older members of their communities to combat loneliness, the brand is now working to increase awareness of its product range amongst barbershops in the UK; to build on the success the brand already experiences in Germany and the Netherlands.

Having Barber Blades as a new stockist and addition to the product range is the start of a busy year for TABAC, with more announcements and activity planned throughout 2018.

The full TABAC range can be found here: https://barberblades.co.uk/tabac-shaving-cologne

Ruth Morgan-Evans, Marketing Manager of TABAC, said the following:

“Barbers have been so impressed with the range of products TABAC has to offer, because they bring a really premium feel to the shaving and male grooming experience. Barbers tell us how much they love the shaving cream in particular, because it doesn’t crack like so many other brands’ offerings.

“The nostalgic scent of all the products is one that the modern man has come to love, thanks to this retro revival that we’re experiencing.  With bold facial hair being a current trend that shows no sign of slowing down, Beard Oil was a natural progression for the product range. We’re so pleased that barbers will now be able to purchase the full range of TABAC products from Barber Blades. After the success of Shave The Day and TABAC being more widely used by barbers, we can’t wait to see what the future holds for the range.”

Luke Dolan, Barber and TABAC Ambassador, said:

“Since I started stocking TABAC products, we’re doing more shaves than ever in both of my shops, so I really feel that wet shaves are going to continue growing in popularity. However, there are plenty of lads out there who are proud of their facial hair and have no plans to get rid, which is where the new Beard Oil comes into play for us. As a barber, it’s often hard to come across products that our customers really love as much as we do, but the nostalgic scent and familiarity of TABAC really keeps them coming back, so it’s been great from a client retention perspective.”

The Bluebeards Revenge releases new sea salt spray

Premium men’s grooming brand The Bluebeards Revenge is pleased to announce the launch of its latest hairstyling product – The Bluebeards Revenge Sea Salt Spray.

The new product is available in a professional 400ml bottle (trade only) and a retail-friendly 200ml bottle.

The barbershop-quality spray is being introduced to the barbering industry at a time when longer, natural looks are coming to the forefront of men’s fashion.

“Shorter men’s cuts will always have a place in the barbershop,” said the brand’s Managing Director David Hildrew, “but with longer looks becoming more popular, we want to offer barbers and their clients a product that can handle the demands of these modern styles.”

The Bluebeards Revenge Sea Salt Spray has been specially designed with sea salt minerals to give men a natural look that boasts all of the volume, texture and wave seen in the hair of coastline junkies. Featuring the grooming brand’s classic barbershop fragrance, the spray offers bland hair a crisp hold that can be reworked throughout the day.

How to use The Bluebeards Revenge Sea Salt Spray:

  1. Start by shaking the spray well to activate the sea salt minerals.
  2. Apply the spray to the roots and tips of clean, damp hair and comb it through.
  3. Blow-dry the hair into the desired shape with The Bluebeards Revenge Vent Brush or Quiff Roller to activate the spray’s volumizing properties.
  4. Alternatively, apply the spray to dry hair and ruffle it through to create natural-looking waves and bends.
  5. Enjoy a natural, textured look that will last all day.

Nelis, Head of Education at The Old School has been a fan since he first used it!

“The great thing about the new Reuzel Shave Cream is, you can apply to the skin and shave straight away. It is a little greasy so it doesn’t dry out too quickly, so you will have time to do a full shave. You can use it on your face, head, wherever! You need to smell it, it smells amazing!”

British Scumbag, Paul Taylor-Clinch, discusses how easy to use:

“Reuzel Shave Cream is our newest product which is available now! The best thing about this is that its ideal for home. If you find that you get irritated skin, this will make a much smoother shave. You will see the hairs really thick and clean, so that way it’s going to be really easy to see which areas the hairs are growing making it so easy to use”

Introducing Reuzel Shave Cream

A highly concentrated, rich and super-slick formula helps give you a nick-free, smooth-skin shave. Containing a blend of lubricating and razor gliding molecules that have been combined with a powerful skin conditioner, your blade glides effortlessly over the skin, leaving it soft and super-smooth.
