The Grooming Guys Blog

Welcome To The Grooming Guys Blog

Hello!  We're Mike and Pirooz (those guys holding razors in the street for no particular reason) and we founded Grooming Lounge more than six years ago with the goal of providing men with the ultimate destinations for grooming products, services and advice.  In this blog, we hope to further our cause in the just-mentioned advice department -- passing along thoughts, observations and tips that relate to improving  the grooming habits and routines of the modern gentlemen. Additionally, we'll also throw in some rants and raves about our stores, products, successes and challenges as an up and coming business in the exploding men's grooming market.

To be honest, about six month's ago we weren't even sure what a blog was.  But, after chatting with some of our guests, we realized it might be helpful to throw some info up on the site to see what "sticks".  We hope you'll let us know what does and what doesn't.

We plan to update the blog a few times a week and hope you'll check back soon.

Yours In Good Grooming,

Mike and Pirooz

Early August Happenings

For lack of a better description, this blog is going to be a melting pot of anything and everything that has to do with our quickly expanding business (us Grooming Guys are going to try and be extremely candid -- very little corporate spin). On that note, there are a ton of really interesting things that have happened over the past few days and that loom on the horizon.  Here's the rundown:

New Web Site Launch: You've probably noticed that we just completed an overhaul of groominglounge.com.  While keeping the "meat" of the site intact, we've added a ton of new features (inlcuding this blog) aimed at making your shopping experience easier.  Click around to see what's new.

Playboy Feature:  Grooming Lounge Shaving Solutions are featured and praised in the August Issue of Playboy Magazine.  This is probably the first case of  "fathers" being proud to see their "babies" in Playboy.

A Three-Senator Day:  We hit a record in our D.C. store Monday by having three U.S. Senators visit the shop for haircuts.  We can't give out thier names... but if you're watching C-Span... they're the ones who look more handsome than the others.

We're Growing:  We'll be opening a new Grooming Lounge store early next year (in a major U.S. city) and are finalizing the location this week.  We both hate the act of flying to this spot, but that's nothing a little Ambien can't cure (that's a joke). We'll let you know the location once it's finalized.

Thanks for listening.

Yours In Good Grooming,

Mike and Pirooz
