Harry’s is…
A vertically integrated men’s grooming brand that makes shaving products and sells them directly to guys online.

And the inspiration behind it…
A bad experience that Andy had trying to buy razor blades. After driving to a drugstore and finally tracking down a sales clerk to unlock a glass case, the blades that Andy was eventually able to purchase were overpriced and over-designed. Frustrated, he called Jeff: “There has to be a better way.” And so Harry’s was born.

Insider tip for the perfect shave…
Take a nice long shower before shaving. Running your face under warm water (as hot as you can handle) really helps to hydrate those whiskers and soften them up before you get shaving. No soap necessary! Then map your facial hair’s pattern and always shave with the grain. This reduces the chances of ingrown hairs and razor bumps.
