Some subscriptions focus on personal hygiene, shaving, beard maintenance, or a mix of some or all of these. Here are only some that are worth considering. Try them out and see if they work for you.
1. Dollar Shave Club
Dollar Shave Club offers various subscriptions. You can choose to get only razors or products, or a mix of both. The service promises to help you pick what’s best for you by having you take a quiz. After you mark all your answers, you can see Dollar Shave Club’s recommendations for you.
You answer where you shave; how frequently; whether you get any issues after a shave (like rashes or ingrown hairs); if you have any skin concerns; what type your hair is (curly, straight); whether you clean yourself with soap, body wash or anything else; what’s your deodorant type.
A subscription box with ten items covering hygiene and shaving will cost you $80, and it comes to you every two months. You also get a thorough review of everything recommended, so you can make changes if you wish before you commit. If you’re not happy at all with the suggestions, you can retake the quiz entirely.
Dollar Shave Club offers a 30-day money-back guarantee, so if you’re not a fan of the products, you have options.
2. Birchbox Grooming
Birchbox Grooming offers personalized subscription boxes. It stresses that it understands how different people are, so no two individuals need the same products. It ensures that every item in your box gets tailored to you and your needs.
You’re expected to fill out a Grooming Profile, where you share your wants, needs, any preferences you have, and then Birchbox Grooming picks products based on what you say.
A Birchbox Grooming box contains five grooming samples, allowing you to try out new products and see how you like them and if they work for you. You can get a slew of grooming items, like moisturizers for your skincare routine, or beard care oils, hair gels, and so on. The subscription costs $10 per month.
3. Fresche Box
Fresche Box is another service that asks you to take a short survey before you get your box. That way, it knows what items to send you. Once you fill in your answers, you select your choice of box.
The subscription offers a Refresh Plan subscription that costs $10 per month. It gets you five sample-sized grooming products, letting you try out different things and see which ones are best for you. Something to look forward to is that after your twelfth box, you get a free one! If you’d rather not subscribe, you can get a one-off Single Box for the same price, $10.
Fresche Box products cover everything a man needs for proper grooming: items for beard, face, and hair care, along with ones for shaving. If you want more control over what you get, there are six categories available.
You can mark the ones you’d like to get products from, and it’s a guarantee that you will. They are Shave, Fragrance, Beard, Hair, Face, and Surprise Me. This applies only to the subscription box and not the one-off purchase.
4. Harry’s
Harry’s offers a razor subscription. It provides quality razors, blades, and gels, all you need to do a proper shave.
It lets you customize the set you’d like to get. Then, you choose the ongoing refills, like whether you’d only want blades, or blades with a gel, or a family plan refill (it has more of both). After that, you pick how often you shave, and you’re done. You have your box crafted.
It starts at $8 a month, and you’re free to make changes to your plan at any point or cancel it.
5. Fab Fit Fun for Him
A Fab Fit Fun for Him box gets you six to eight full-sized products that can fall under an array of categories. Like, grooming, fitness, fashion, wellness, and so on.
You can choose between a seasonal subscription that comes to you four times a year or an annual one. The first costs $49.99 per box, and the latter, $45.
Both offer up to eight products, but the annual one lets you customize every single one while the seasonal allows only four customizations. Both also permit unlimited swaps for credit, and you’re free to cancel subscriptions at any point.
6. Scentbird Men
Being well-groomed isn’t only looking good, but smelling nice as well. Scentbird is an awesome subscription to help with that. Scentbird offers subscriptions for designer scents, you can receive monthly for $15.95. Since it partners with top brands and wholesalers, it manages to get you the real deal scents for a fraction of the cost.
Before you subscribe, you take a quiz, so Scentbird can get a feel of what type of scent you want. It’s a “this or that” type of survey. Like, whether you’d like rich or subtle undertones, how you’d like to feel when sprayed with it, sensual or fresh, and so on. When the quiz ends, you see Scentbird’s recommendations.
You can read through the scent profile created for you and go through the recommendations Scentbird lists, ticking the ones you’d like to try. If you’re scared of commitment, don’t worry, you can cancel anytime.
7. Gillette Shave Club
Gillette is among the most prominent brands when it comes to shaving. If you’re a fan, you can try out the Gillette Shave Club subscription. It costs $14 per month, but your first month is free, so there’s no reason why you shouldn’t give it a try.
There are two starter kits you can try, ProGlide Shield Starter Kit and SkinGuard Starter Kit. Each one gets you a best-selling Gillette blade, a handle that moves with the curves of your face and neck, and a travel case.
Once you pick your kit, you can set your delivery schedule, knowing that if you decide against keeping up the subscription, you can cancel anytime.
Grooming Is Important, Don’t Disregard Your Self-Care
Subscriptions like the ones listed above make it exceptionally easy to do your grooming and maintain a good appearance. If you’re not used to having a skincare routine or beard care is a new concept for you, definitely look into signing up for one of the boxes.
Grooming doesn’t only extend to looking nice, but feeling good, too. Products like moisturizers, oils, creams, and the lot not only make your skin and hair look great and glow but contribute to a significant confidence boost, too.
