Something For The Weekend, Sir?

Mr Tonic of Hackney, brings back the classic tonics and lotions that made the British barbering experience highly memorable.

Steeped in tradition and the refined rituals of classic grooming, fine gentlemen’s hair tonics and lotions like Pashana—established in 1910—and Vines Vintage—founded in Hackney in 1937—evoke an era when personal care was both an art and a statement of style. These heritage brands offer more than mere grooming products; they deliver an experience steeped in nostalgia, craftsmanship, and the subtle power of a well-groomed appearance. Infused with invigorating essential oils and time-honored formulations, these tonics not only condition the scalp and tame the hair but also impart a distinguished fragrance that lingers with quiet confidence. For the discerning gentleman, applying such lotions is a daily ritual that connects the modern man with the timeless elegance of barbershop culture.
