ANFORH Texture Volume Spray Review
A note before we start, because it matters. Anforh is the brand from Robin James, the man behind Man For Himself, who has spent well over a decade reviewing this stuff before deciding to make his own. So this is me, a men’s grooming blogger, reviewing a product made by another men’s grooming person. I…

Hair Styling with Hanz de Fuko The Mini 4 Pack
This isn’t a long article, more of a public service announcement, but I wanted to cover the Hanz de Fuko Mini 4 Pack as I thought it was a novel approach to men’s hair styling. Many men’s hair brands have a plethora of different pomades, clays, gels, waxes, dry waxes, creams etc. the list goes…

Hair Styling from Balmain
Just a brief one, but thought you might like a peak at the Balmain hair styling collection. I’ve pulled 4 products I like from the 6 I’ve been sent. In a nutshell, they’re OK – not amazing – but solid products. I don’t know if I expected more because of the name, or in the…

Rahua Amazon Hair Care Christmas Gift
A few months back I attended a launch for Rahua (oh that reminds me, I can tell you about it now – will post ASAP) and was absolutely blown away by the brand.

The heat is killing me. I’ve never handled heat well, and on the coldest days in winter I can step out in jeans and a t-shirt. I’m just a hot person (although I’m sure many would beg to differ). I know this sounds ridiculous and “well, duh”, but please remember to drink more water than…

If you read Manface, you’ll know that over the last 4 years I’ve become an increasingly huge fan of Fudge hair care and styling products. Their range, Fudge Urban, is an affordable arm of the brand that delivers great products at excellent value. I bought Fudge Urban Iced Coconut Cocktail Hairspray by chance as I…
