Russell's Shave Club

What's in the box: Orders typically centre on beard grooming tools such as precision detailers and complete beard kits, with fragrance and shaving products also available.

Russell's Shave Club was founded by Kyri, a barber with more than 20 years of experience. The brand's aim is to help men get barber-quality beard results at home. The range covers beard tools, shaving, hair products and fragrance, and the best sellers are beard kits and precision detailers. There is also a line called RSC Pro for barbers and serious groomers. The brand puts a lot of weight on education and offers tutorials on shaping, fading and maintaining a beard, which is useful if you are new to trimming your own lines. Despite the word club in the name, the site works more like a regular online shop than a subscription service. It does not clearly describe a recurring box, a delivery schedule or how to manage a plan, so if you want automatic monthly deliveries, check before you buy. The site offers a 45-day money back guarantee, a one year warranty and free returns, and UK delivery is free on orders over £49. The site shows more than a thousand customer reviews. You can reach the company by email or by phone on weekdays. One oddity for a UK brand is that some prices may be shown in US dollars, so check the currency at checkout.
