Tradition Meets Modernity with BROSH ✂️ 📖

Tradition Meets Modernity with BROSH ✂️

📖 Featured in the Jan/Feb UK & Ireland issue 🇬🇧🇮🇪 this exclusive shoot captures the essence of Japan’s duality – where classic barbering traditions meet the energy of Tokyo’s urban landscape.

For this collection, @mrpotatohead59 envisioned a visual journey through Japan, blending the neon-lit streets of Kabukicho with the historic charm of Asakusa. 🌆 The result? A striking showcase of @brosh.jp versatility – proving that no matter the hair type or style, there’s a BROSH product to achieve the perfect finish.

“We highlighted two different locations within this shoot as a way to represent Japan to the world in a meaningful way, as well as to represent myself and my lifestyle,” Tomoya explained. “The neon signs and vibrant nightlife of Kabukicho showcase my energy and inspiration, while Asakusa reflects Japan’s rich traditions.”

👉 Swipe through for the full collection and see how BROSH is redefining men’s grooming with world-class craftsmanship.
