So you read about my #SorbetMan experience HERE and saw the video HERE, but you are not quite sure what it is all about. Let me enlighten you.
I unfortunately could not go to the store launch on Friday, but the peeps over at 4 Elements Media hooked me up with some information about the brand plus I experienced it myself. Simply put in language that you and I understand, Sorbet Man is a salon (they call it a “groomers club”) that caters specifically for men. They have a wide range of offerings from shaves, to haircuts, to MAN-icures, to massages and even some whiskey if you wish.
“Sorbet Man is the real man’s answer to looking good and feeling good, without the fuss. It’s a space for men to be men; to express their individuality and to embrace their new-age manliness, ” says Ian Fuhr, Founder of Sorbet Group, author of Get That Feeling and co-partner of Sorbet Man.
From my experience:
- The staff at the salon were really friendly. I kept thinking to myself “these people are so nice, my readers are gonna think I’m getting paid to say this.”
- Although I did not pay for my own treatments, I would say they are quite affordable considering the quality of service and products that they use – their stylists have all undergone 8 weeks of training. View the treatment menu HERE.
- I loved that they have a loyalty card on which you accumulate points and can eventually become a platinum member and enjoy platinum perks.
- It’s great that you can watch sport on the various screens across the salon if you’re a fan, but I would also love the option of free Wi-Fi (if they do have it, they never offered).

Thanks to Lorinda and team for organising my #SorbetMan experience as well as inviting me to the store launch. I would also like to suggest an automatic response or Google Form RSVP option as it is hard to tell whether you are on the guestlist without a response that confirms your RSVP.
