Let’s be honest. Most dads aren’t out shopping for themselves when it comes to self-care. That’s why grooming gifts from local Mandeville businesses are such a great choice. Whether it’s for your dad, husband, brother, or that cool dad friend in your life, a little grooming TLC goes a long way.
Here in Mandeville, we’re lucky to have some great local spots where you can find gifts that will actually get used, not tossed in the back of a drawer. Here are some ideas to help you put together a simple gift that’s thoughtful, useful, and guaranteed to make him feel appreciated.
Easy Grooming Gifts He’ll Love
If he’s never treated himself to a proper shave or beard trim, now’s your chance to change that.
At The Barbers Chair, we offer:
- Gift cards. Always an easy win. They can be used for cuts, beard trims, shaves, or whatever he’s into.
- Beard kits. Handcrafted butters, washes, and brushes to keep that beard looking sharp. Pair this with our beard care service and you’ve got an instant upgrade.
- Hot towel shaves. The kind of old-school experience most guys wouldn’t book for themselves but always appreciate once they try it.
Pro tip: If you’re not sure what he’d want, a gift card gives him the freedom to choose. It also gives you a chance to subtly suggest something he might enjoy.
Other Local Gift Ideas
Want to round out your gift or add something extra? Here are a few local favorites that pair well with grooming gifts:
- Coffee from Cherrybomb Coffee Co. Dads love great coffee, and Cherrybomb’s vibe pairs perfectly with a guy who appreciates a good beard butter or shave. Bonus: it’s right next door to The Barbers Chair, so it’s easy to grab a bag of locally roasted beans or a gift card.
- Goods from Redoux Home + Market. They offer home goods, candles, and even cologne—perfect if your guy enjoys good scents or just wants his space to smell better than a gym bag.
- Fairly Local in Covington. If he’s into clothes or accessories (or could use a little style help), Fairly Local is a great spot. They have a wide selection of men’s items, from casual to polished, and the staff can help you pick out something if you’re unsure.
How to Build a Great Gift Combo
If you want to put together more than just a gift card, here’s an easy formula:
- Start with a grooming gift (gift card, beard kit, or grooming service).
- Add coffee from Cherrybomb. A delicious treat is always a good idea.
- Toss in something from Redoux or a cool piece from Fairly Local.
Simple, local, and way more personal than just another pair of socks.
