Ways to Secure Top Talent Without Offering Salary By Jeremy Eskenazi
Hiring in North America has not been this challenging in a very long time. The employment rate is at an all-time high, and top candidates have been able to negotiate great packages for themselves as some get multiple offers. As you start looking for the next superstar to further your company’s goals, deciding how hard you can compete for talent is important. While there are trends making candidate relationship-building easier--such as text communication to schedule interviews or being able to offer more flexibility to the work schedule for some roles—money is still a primary driver for candidates.

Editorial Letter by Jessica De Vault Hale
For the Love of Grooming There’s no doubt that most of the shoppers you have are likely women. After all, its women who spend thousands of dollars a year on their hair and beauty regimen. But that doesn’t mean that men shouldn’t be considered into the equation. Most women want to look their best and ensure their families and significant others are looking great, as well. So to sell men’s grooming items, it might be best to target your energies toward the female shopper. Women often shop for their significant other. As a matter of fact, couples are prone to share products. So chances are, a woman will be eager to give her partner his own product supply to avoid taking from her personal stash. So when displaying your products, keep the female shopper in mind. Stock up on men’s grooming items that have great scents and easy application instructions to catch the attention of these shoppers. To get more inspiration, read our latest How Should You Sell It column featuring advice from seasoned merchandiser, Scott Zangwill.

MARKET PLACE
Men’s Hair & Beard Products There’s no doubt about it. Men’s grooming is a growing trend that is here to stay. While men’s skincare, body washes and shampoos are also all the rave, there are two categories that are likely the strongest in this niche: men’s electrical tools and beard maintenance products. As long as beards are still trendy and new haircuts continue to be a necessity, these two categories will always be strong. We selected some of our favorites from these two groups, so you’ll know what to stock up on for your Men’s aisle!
Beard Oil
Chances are, most of your male customers will have coarse facial hair. That’s why you’ll want to recommend the Just For Men Beard Oil. Its lightweight, non-greasy formula leaves beards softer and more manageable.
Clippers
The BaBylissPro GoldFX Clipper is a cordless, lithiumcharged tool with a high-torque, Ferrari-designed engine. It also has an all-metal housing with a knurled barbell grip for easy grasp. This tool can cut all hair textures with the speed, power and precision that your professional customers will want.
Shaver
Your customers deserve the best, and what’s more topnotch than the Wahl 5 Star Shaver? This ultimate finishing tool comes with a hypoallergenic gold foil to avoid irritation and a rechargeable battery that can maintain a running motor for up to 60 minutes per charge.
12
OTC Beauty Magazine April 2020
USB-Charged Shaver
Another shaver we love is the Absolute Zero Gamma+. Not only is it sleek, stylish and offers high-quality performance, but it also has ultra-thin, hypoallergenic gold titanium foils that are staggered and independently floating for a closer shave. It has a multi-charge function as well that allows a barber to charge on the go.
Pomade
If your shoppers enjoy Jamaican Black Castor Oil, they will love the oil-infused Sunny Isle Pomade For Men. This hair-growth stimulating product also contains beeswax to help with dryness and weakness. It’s perfect for the man looking for a bit of shine and nourishment.
Curl Activator
Fellas with curly hair will appreciate the Luster’s S-Curl Activator and Moisturizer. Its formulation of glycerine and Vitamin B5 help to eliminate breakage and keep your curls healthy and soft. Plus, the no-drip component prevents this product from ruining your clothes or bed sheets.

Men’s Hair & Beard Products.
Oil and Butter Balm
A lot of men aren’t fans of lots of products. If they can find a product that takes care of as many needs as possible, they’re likely to buy it. Enter: The Mane Choice Head Honcho Hair & Beard Oil + Butter = The Balm. Not only does it soften a man’s beard, but it also protects and nourishes his face and hair.
Shea Butter Balm
What guarantees softness from even the roughest of beards? Shea butter, and that’s what the Murray’s Billey’s Beard Balm has, along with nourishing coconut oil.
Beard Oil
For those who like a simple light oil, recommend the Nappy Styles Original Beard & Hair Oil. Enriched with Vitamin E, Shea Butter and Black Castor Oil, any man’s beard is sure to be left shiny and moisturized. This oil also helps thicken and fill in bare spots within the beard.

Men’s Hair & Beard Products.
Cannabis Aftershave
Everyone knows that CBD oil can be a great moisturizer, so infusing it into an aftershave should be a no-brainer. That’s why the Cannabis Sativa Oil Aftershave is a great choice. Not only does it soothe the skin post-shave, but it also hydrates the skin, too.
Moisturizing Butter
Revitalize your beard and soften your skin with the Jamaican Mango Lime Moisturizing Beard Butter. Fortified with Vitamins A & E, it also maintains hair health and promotes shine.
Miracle Oil
Don’t just soften your beard, ensure it’s healthy and grows, as well! With the OKAY Men’s Beard Miracle Oil, you’ll be able to moisturize your facial hair and nourish it with oils that readily absorb into the hair and skin.

How should you sell it? Scott Zangwill
This month’s selling focus is… Men’s Beard Products Men’s grooming appeared to be a trend five years ago. How long would it last, many wondered. But now it’s understood that the men’s beauty niche is here to stay and continue growing. The powerhouse categories of men beard care alone is expanding every year.
But with so many new products coming out, how do you increase sales with men’s grooming products? “Yes, how can the OTC store owner get more men into the stores to buy not only their core items such as shampoos, conditioners, hair gel and more? Well, what they need to do is to focus on the 97% of their customers who are women. Target them through signage, and putting some of the men’s items either right up front when they walk in the door or position a handful of items near the cash register. A nice sign saying, ‘Look ladies! Wouldn’t your man love a nice beard oil or a nicely-scented aftershave?’ The men’s section has grown in the last few years to become its own section. Years ago, there was, at best, a few items to choose from and good luck finding it in the store. With bigname brands such as Cantu, Uncle Jimmy, Sunny Isle, Clubman Pinaud, you can get great beard oils that have become so popular now. The selection of hair color for men is the largest ever. Many men, as they get older, use these products. There are so many brands of shaving creams, razors and tools to choose from. So use the signage and direction to remind the ladies or gentlemen coming into your stores to buy these products year-round, and also use each holiday to promote a different line or product. All of these efforts will add up at the end.”

Dr. James Y. Hunder, Sr.,
Under his visionary leadership, LOP established the Miss Africa, African American Educational Queen Pageant in 1991. Through this pageant, 10 contestants were recruited annually and randomly assigned a country from each region in Africa, in which they were required to study to enhance their ability to influence the judges through their intelligence, knowledge, poise and career aspirations. Through intense research and presentations by the students, all participants acquired knowledge about the continent of Africa and were provided opportunities to earn scholarships. From its inception, more than 120 local high school seniors and college students benefited. Dr. Hunder successfully sought partnership between LOP and Wake Forest University that made it possible for a winner of the pageant to attend their Summer Program in the Republic of Benin, West Africa. The pageant was discontinued in 2003 due to security concerns throughout the region. Dr. Hunder was the founding chairman of the Liberia-North Carolina Crisis Commission responsible for shipments of medicines, clothing and non-perishable food items, raising more than $55,000 sent to refugee camps in Danane, Ivory Coast and in Liberia during the height of the brutal civil wars that started in December 1989 and continued through 2003 when the conflicts lessoned. Under his leadership as President of the LOP, Dr. Hunder accomplished the followings initiatives among many others:

The child, accompanied by his mother, was able to travel to the United States and receive a successful surgery and is now a high school graduate pursuing higher education.

Read on to learn the pro tips.
Find the widest points of the head. You’ll use those areas to determine how long you want the hair to be at the parietal ridge. If you’re using a detachable blade clipper, figure out how many blade sets will be used in between the widest points of the head and parietal ridge areas. Lay only those blades out on your station for ease of use and higher efficiency when cutting. For adjustable blade clippers, know which blade attachment comb or blade setting you’ll use first. Will you fade top down, or bottom up – know your game plan.
Create your initial guideline around the widest points of the head using an Andis UltraEdge® Outliner detachable blade. Your client may want a high fade on the sides and mid or low fade in the back. Having an initial guideline in place will help you design a winning look for your client that’s tailored for their head shape.
Use the same size C-stroke motion around the entire head. This is a very important step to remember, especially if you’re using multiple blade sets to remove the guideline and all weight lines. Making each clipper stroke the same size also ensures that the angle of the initial guideline will be followed. This technique will complement the shape of your client’s head, perfecting that tailormade fade…fit for a champion.

THERAPY TRENDS The Deconstruction of Male Grooming By Elayne McClaine
We think of the male grooming industry as consisting of shaving products, colognes, hair products and various toiletries. If we deconstruct the grooming regimen, we will redefine the category. Beyond the basics of sprays, creams and lotions for hair shaving and skin, the market is now more expansive. There are anti-aging products, serums, concealers, bronzers, and makeup. Hair color includes covering gray and circling the shades of the rainbow. New product forms like beard washes and groin hygiene indicate product need specific trends. Market growth is due to the increase in male-specific toiletries beyond the shaving category. Segmentation continues to be based on product forms such as shaving gels, creams and after-shave lotions. Now, these items are referred to by more masculine terms. Brand and category names are macho and forceful, designed for man parts—beard soap, pit boss deodorant, or hair color brews. Some of the new names would make a grown man blush. The category is now defined by male needs, not replicas of female products. Each year the offerings are deconstructed to suggest totally maleoriented performance and ingredients. The global men’s grooming product market is also growing due to increased awareness of boys to men’s beauty. Males are no longer constrained by artificial modesty. The social media explosion that led to daily selfies and videos has created an unabashed consciousness of looking camera ready. Fashion trends also urge these consumers to seek the best care and end result for their image. Millennials may have started the drive toward the enhanced male image, but all generations of men to boys are participating. New product forms will earn attention as men redefine the male grooming category—bold and specifically masculine. Elayne McClaine has identified and developed emerging domestic and global trends in hair care, skincare and other consumer categories for such firms as Chesebrough-Pond’s, Revlon and Pharmacia (div. of Pfizer). Her expertise in therapeutic treatments for hair, skin and scalp led to the creation of the Women’s Institute for Fine and Thinning Hair, sponsored by Rogaine. McClaine has been acknowledged by the American Academy of Dermatologists for marketing and promotional excellence.

BIR Bits WATCH LIST The CROWN Coalition, a national alliance of organizations working to advance anti-hair discrimination legislation, is celebrating a major victory with the introduction of a federal bill to ban hair discrimination called The CROWN Act of 2019. The CROWN Coalition, founded by Dove, National Urban League, Western Center on Law & Poverty and Color Of
Change, and supported by over 50 NGOs and non-profit organizations, raises awareness about hair discrimination
and drives action to end hair discrimination in workplaces and schools. The federal bill, led by Congressman Cedric Richmond (D-Louisiana) and Senator Cory Booker (D-New Jersey), is a monumental milestone in the Coalition’s efforts to Create a Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair. “Hair discrimination has been a problematic practice impacting
Black people in multiple settings for far too long. Natural hair and protective styles should never serve as a barrier. We
in Congress have acted, and together with a racial equity champion like Adjoa B. Asamoah and the CROWN Coalition,
we can ensure this form of discrimination no longer goes unchecked,” says Rep. Cedric Richmond. “A federal bill in both chambers of Congress is exactly what is needed to address the racial injustice of hair discrimination on a national level,” says Marc Morial, former mayor of New Orleans and CEO of the National Urban League. “With the passing of The
CROWN Act in California, New York and New Jersey, and more than 10other states taking action to introduce orpre-file
similar legislation, there is a heightened awareness of the need to expand anti-discrimination protections to include hair texture and hairstyles inherent to race. Federal legislation would eliminate the need for state-by-state legislation
and immediately break down systemic barriers that limit social and economic mobility of African-Americans based on Eurocentric beauty standards.”
TRENDS Kline, a global management consulting and market research firm covering beauty and personal care products sold through all channels of distribution, recently issued “What’s Next in Beauty,” a look into 2020and beyond. Their top trends include: • One size does not fit all: Personalization rises in popularity, as consumers see products targeted to their specific
needs. From mass to professional, customization takes various shapes in today’s beauty landscape and is set to break through even higher in 2020.
• Cannabis reaches new highs: The cannabis craze continues, as new brands from luxury to mass to professional continue to flood the market.
• Beards are here to stay: A tiny but mighty category—beard care products—makes the biggest impact of all in
the male grooming market. Tremendous growth of over 35% was seen in 2018, due to the increased education by brands and media, coupled with new innovations. Consumers gravitate to beard care products with citrus or musky
scents for treating and maintaining facial hair, as shaving is less popular. While the beard care category was started by small, niche, indie brands entering salons and barber shops, larger players followed suit. As leading players and indie brands continue to enter/expand in the category, merger and acquisition activity will amp up.
