Virtual Grooming Programs

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Gillette's 'My Virtual Barber' Guides Canadians Through At-Home Cuts

With most barbers and salons still closed to prevent the spread of COVID-19, Gillette devised a new program called 'My Virtual Barber,' which connects Canadians with an expert barber via web call appointments. A total of 100 cost-free appointments will be offered through the program.

Appointments will be available from May 6th until June 26th, and can be booked through a dedicated web page. In addition to offering guided haircuts, interested clients can book a guided face shave, or a grooming conversation. All appointments are an hour long, and are hosted by Tyler Lumb, a renowned Toronto barber and the former owner of MPL, an inclusive barbershop experience that welcomed clients of all genders.

Once users request an appointment time on the available dates, they'll be notified when their appointment has been confirmed. Those with confirmed appointments will also receive a 25% discount code, which can be applied to a purchase from Gillette On Demand.
