Calling all fathers, husbands, sons, lovers and friends!
This year, we want to elevate your skincare routine while keeping your coins within the Black community. From skincare to beard balms to scalp care, and everything in between...we want you to look and feel your best. You can now stop sneaking through our products, and have a shelf of your own that’s for us, by us.
Founder, Michael James saw opportunity in men’s grooming due to a lack of products that addressed skin concerns for Black men. Inspired by his grandfather, Frederick Benjamin Grooming promises to deliver products that make you feel confident and free. Their handpicked, nourishing ingredients are free of common irritants and designed in a simple regimen that even the most low maintenance gentleman can follow.
