MANTL represents a range of skincare products for the Face and Scalp that are inspired by bald folks, but work for everyone. The brand aims to support men with information, products, and a supportive community of co-conspirators, creating the space for you to move forward—free from the baggage and stereotypes of the past, empowering you to live your fullest life. The Bald Journey is the process that many men go through as they experience hair loss. It’s not always a linear process, but the common phases that happen as an individual moves through this experience include denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. In this episode of the MenswearStyle Podcast we interview Peter Ricci, Co-Founder at MANTL about how the brand which makes skincare for balding men was launched. Peter started losing his hair in his mid twenties and later, with the support of his wife, decided to shave it all off. He then realised that women have a huge selection of skincare lines available to them whereas men didn't, especially for the scalp. Our host Peter Brooker and Peter Ricci talk about their personal experiences of going bald, how MANTL product differs from others, the importance of SPF, how funding was raised, and the psychology of shaving your head for the first time.
