Facial Scruff Softeners

The 'Soft Goat' Buffs Away the Sharp Ends of Facial Hair Stubble

— April 20, 2014 — Lifestyle
Soft Goat can make hair maintenance an easier task for men. All that time they spend in the morning shaving can easily be defeated by the five-O'clock shadow. Hair stubble can be rough and simply unappealing to both men and their significant others.

Soft Goat softens their stubble so it won't irritate their skin or someone who is getting close to them. It does so through its hypoallergenic foam pad, which is coated in softening paper. The paper is meant to dull the sharp edges of their facial hair. It works on full beards too for those who love the extra scruff sans the rough.

Soft Goat also offer a product option for women so they can have smooth skin on their legs, underarms and bikini area, regardless of hair growth.
Trend Themes
1. Facial Hair Softening - The trend of using hypoallergenic foam pads and softening paper to reduce the sharpness of facial hair stubble for a more comfortable and appealing look and feel.
2. Multi-gender Hair Removal - The trend of expanding hair removal products to appeal to both men and women, providing a wider range of customers with comfortable and efficient solutions.
3. Simpler Hair Maintenance - The trend of developing simple and effective products that make hair maintenance easier and more accessible for busy consumers looking for a quick and effortless solution.
Industry Implications
1. Personal Care - There is an opportunity for personal care companies to develop and offer innovative and convenient hair maintenance products that cater to men and women alike and make hair care a more enjoyable experience.
2. Beauty - Beauty companies can embrace the trend of facial hair softening and develop products that offer a comfortable and natural-looking look. They could also extend multi-gender hair removal options to target a wider customer base.
3. Retail - Retailers can tap into the simpler hair maintenance trend by offering curated hair maintenance kits that cater to time-poor customers looking for efficient solutions to their hair care needs.
