Man who ‘gave up on having good hair’ finds ‘game changer’ product now 10% off

‘Quality product as always’, said one shopper

As Christmas creeps closer, many have already started shopping for loved ones. Beauty products have long stood out as gifts that are useful, not just novelties – but haircare can be surprisingly personal, so finding the right present often proves tricky.

Slick Gorilla might have the solution, as it has recently launched a line-up of gift sets that offer a simple way to try its most trusted grooming products. Included in the range is the Care Box Set, designed to remove build-up and revitalise the scalp. It’s priced at £39.95, but readers can currently get 10% off each full-priced set when they use the code ‘REACH10’.

This set refreshes hair with four key products. For general maintenance, a daily 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner keeps hair clean and healthy, while the natural aroma ensures it smells good too. There’s also a detox 2-in-1 for those who regularly use products, which delivers more thorough cleaning that’s perfect when a reset is required.

Also included is a scalp scrub which exfoliates and soothes dry and flaky skin, which Slick Gorilla recommends using one to two times a week. A scalp brush with wide silicon massage bristles completes the gift set, which the brand says promotes a healthy scalp by increasing blood flow and circulation.

Slick Gorilla boasts a growing list of high-profile fans – including MMA superstar Paddy ‘The Baddy’ Pimblett, rugby union player Louis Rees-Zammit, and NFL quarterback Sam Hartman. According to Slick Gorilla, its products work on any hair type, are never tested on animals, and are vegan certified too.

Other gift sets in the range include the Volume & Texture Set for £24.95, which includes a hair styling powder, sea salt spray, and a pair of socks in keeping with true Christmas spirit. Or, there’s the Full Styling Box Set for £49.95, including a texture powder, a styling clay, sea salt spray, cream styler, and a wide-toothed comb for adding bold textures.

Elsewhere, shoppers could pick up the Nivea Men Feel Set To Go gift set for a body treat, which is sold at Boots for £16. It includes a shower gel, face wash, anti-perspirant, and moisturising cream, packaged neatly in a stylish brown washbag.

Another option is Bulldog’s original grooming kit sold at Debenhams for £12.80, down from £16 at the moment. It includes a gently cleansing shower gel, moisturiser for 24-hour hydration, and a refreshing face wash.

Back to Slick Gorilla, many of its products have received positive reviews on the brand’s website. One left a comment on the daily 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner, saying: “After years of using all kinds of waxes, gels, hairsprays, etc., I just gave up at the thought of having nice hair and put it down to my hair texture.

“Then came along Slick Gorilla with their Hair Powder product and all of a sudden the game changed! My hair looks so much thicker using this powder and styles superbly while looking clean with a matte finish. It actually gets stronger as the day goes on, I’ve found, which is even better.” A second bought the scalp scrub, simply commenting: “This leaves you feeling super refreshed after every use!”

One customer bought the Slick Gorilla sea salt spray and left feedback. They said: “Very good product, stays in for ages. Only bad thing, it takes a little bit for it to set. Apart from that, 10/10.”

Another purchased the brand’s clay pomade, commenting: “Pretty good. I finally found something I like putting on my hair. I only wish the smell was a bit nicer and a bit less shiny. I would buy it again.”

However, overall, many were pleased with their purchases. Another shopper bought the scalp brush and left five stars, saying: “Quality product as always, used by me and my son to ensure we always look 10 out of 10.”

The Slick Gorilla styling box sets are available now.
