2022 Men’s Product Awards Recap!
Style doesn't have to be limited to just clothes, shoes and sharp suits. It is a minor thing that men frequently overlooked. One of the most essential aspects ignored by men is personal grooming, as it was once considered a feminine domain. No longer!
Male grooming doesn’t only mean putting on make-up or just dressing well. All that shiny exterior look goes away if you don’t smell pleasant, your beard doesn’t look uneven or even when your hair isn't clean. Some time ago, men were ridiculed for taking care of themselves. However, times have changed. Personal care; look, smell, and style are all in.
Let’s celebrate the outstanding Men’s brands who are working every day trying to make grooming easy and accessible for all of us. There’s a bunch of great choices from Australian and New Zealand brands. In 2022, the Beard Awards team dedicated a whole day to judging and testing men’s grooming products.
And we smelt amazing. So you can too.
On the 28th of May, in Auckland, New Zealand, we hosted a Charity Awards Competition in partnership with Cure Kids and with the support of some of NZ’s leading barbers, videographers, and some great New Zealand and Australian brands keen to compete to win Best Overall Men’s Product for 2022.
With Mike Wilson as our event MC, the 2022 Men’s Product Awards was a grand success. We had an independent panel of judges to review and evaluate entries. For the 2022, our panel was composed of talent from three of New Zealand's top barbers and one of NZ's leading Tertiary Institutions. Our judges for the Men’s Products Awards were: Newton Cook from Rodney Wayne, Luke Kimiora from Maloney's Barbershop, David Tiumalu from Cut Above Academy, and Matthew Griffin from Barba.
