What Happened to Grooming Dept.?

They haven't had a soap available in what seems months. Huh

There has been some talk that he has been MIA. Apparently an artisan sent him essential oils for a collaboration batch and he has not responded since. Pretty shady... hope nothings wrong with him.

If he's MIA he's not doing a very good job at it considering he's posting away in the Grooming Dept forum section on here, as recently as a short while ago today.

Then that’s just being a shitty human being... I thought maybe he was sick or maybe something in the family happened.

Mohammad GroomingDept has been talking all day long with the Community in the Merchants thread. To my understanding Soaps are curing as I type. I’ve been using a sample of one of his new products all this past week, a Pre Shave that I’ve been getting really good results with. Be patient, I think some good things are right around the corner.

Why would he fiddle fart around with pre-shave (which is in the opinion of many a waste of time) when people are clamoring for his soap? Perhaps a Marketing 101 course is needed. Rolleyes

I find prep work to be one of the most important things in wetshaving. I think it also has the ability to enhance anysoap. So if Mohammed is leaning towards this market he is smart. This will ensure his name is in all of your Sotds.

Mo has been doing tonnes of research focusing on new preshave and postshave formulae. A number of us have been testing these and sworn to silence until recently.

Not trying to be churlish but people seem to have a lot of unfounded rumours, seeminly none positively speculatve, concerning this vendor. Let me assure you, in every case to my knowledge this vendor has held his tongue to false rumours, bent over backwards for customers (even those buying his products on the secondary market) and advanced the state of the art in soap bases and soon pre and post shave.

I have zero financial interest in Grooming Dept and the samples received are laughably miniscule compared to his products purchased - to state not on his payroll nor given free product. He literally made the soap that allowed me to shave daily rash free for first time in life; his soaps are the best in market and actually improve skin condition with usage. Only Wholley Kaw comes close and have tried them all in a quest to get results am enjoying now.

I don’t have any insight into Mohammad’s business practices. I just enjoy using his Soaps.
