Whether he’s a #girldad or simply an all-around superhero in your eyes, the man (or men) in your life need some self-care moments just like you do. And with the journey that we’ve all been on for 2020 so far, health, wellness and beauty is a must.

Our fathers, husbands, brothers, uncles, sons and father-figures deserve the best of the best. So give it to them while keeping your coins in the community. While Bevel, Plant Apothecary and several other favorite Black-owned brands remain our go-tos for quality products, we’re adding a few more to the list.

Check out the gallery below for some Black-owned brands you can shop to elevate his grooming experience. From fancy washing accessories to all the beard balm he can stand, these gifts will really make dad happy.

01
Velvet Noir
Black men across the country are singing this brand’s praises for keeping their beards clean, soft, and smelling good. The all-natural brand is easily becoming a cult-favorite with its variety of products that make beard grooming an experience.

Luv Scrub
Black people can be quite particular about what we wash our bodies with—and for good reason, not everything is always made with our skin needs in mind. But not owning a wash cloth is grounds to get your Black card revoked in some circles. Well, this magical mesh upgrade will have dad thinking twice about that. Show his shower experience some luv.

Twist It Up Comb
Sometimes all you need is that one key product. That was the case for this hair tool brand that was a rare Shark Tank success story. An alternative to the germ-ridden curl sponges, this smart hair twisting comb will become his swagger sidekick.
