Welcome to the Menaissance
So says William Loeffler of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review in his recent article “So long, metrosexuals: Welcome to the Menaissance.”
Loeffler talks about the effects of Mad Men and the economic recession on the male psyche—and how men are ready to be masculine again, after several years of androgynous accessorizing, carrying purses, and using more hair products than their girlfriends.
And he talks about the return of the real man’s barbershop, since manly men are no longer interested in visiting their wives’ hairdressers.
Enter our pals at The Gents Place. As we’ve mentioned at length, we love Ben and the team at The Gents Place, for the Savvy way they take good care of the discerning gentleman’s visage.
Offering razor shaves, haircuts, skin treatments, shoe shines, massage services, and refreshments like top-shelf whiskeys, The Gents Place is a men’s urban sanctuary—just what the doctor ordered for a manly man who doesn’t really care to sit in the salon alongside the PTA moms.
And just in time for Father’s Day, The Gents Place is running a special where you can get a $100 gift card if you refer two friends.
So consider getting the Don Draper daddy in your life a gift card to The Gents Place—maybe boxed up prettily with a cigar.
Ahem. We mean… boxed up handsomely.
