While many people mark the end of summer as Labor Day or the beginning of the school year, the official last day of summer this year is September 22nd. With plenty of warm weather and sunshine still to come, here are a few products to help men stay cool, refreshed, and looking their best during the remaining summer days.
Let’s begin with hair care. I recently discovered a new company from Copenhagen called Hårklinikken. While the name might be a bit challenging to pronounce, the product is incredibly user-friendly. Created by Lars Skjøth.
They have their own clinics across the globe including New York, Los Angelese, Dubai, and Copenhagen, with over 30+ years of seeing clients at their locations and providing visible results for optimal hair gain.
The pinnacle of their product line is the award-winning Hair Gain Extract, a hair growth serum individually formulated to restore the condition of the scalp, strengthen hair at the roots and re-engage the follicles to stimulate growth. I’ve tried their shampoo and conditioner and noticed my hair looks thicker and shinier. Try it.
Looking to revitalize your locks? Meet Heal Thy Roots by Amalgam, a lightweight scalp treatment that’s like a refreshing tonic for your hair. Before you even shampoo, this pre-wash elixir works to combat hair loss and promote thicker, healthier growth. Drawing inspiration from ancient healing traditions of Korea, India, and China, this vegan formula is free of harsh fragrances and dyes. Simply apply a few drops with the dropper and massage into your scalp. In just 90 days, I noticed a noticeable difference in the strength and fullness of my hair.

I’ve been a fan of Oars + Alps products for several years. Currently, I’m very impressed with their Matte Sunscreen Face Stick. It’s 50 SPF gives it very high marks for sun protection and the stick option makes it very easy to apply to the face. As you may recall, I am always promoting sun protection since my father, an avid golfer who didn’t believe real men should wear sunscreen, was diagnosed with skin cancer on his nose. This stick is not not only easy to use but also convenient to carry in your pocket.
All fathers and dads to be should check out the caps/hats from this 2-year-old business called Dad Gang Co. Created by U.S. fathers, this company offers an assortment of colors and messaging designs in a vast selection of headgear. My personal favorite is their Purple and Gold Horsepower.
They have sold over 250,000 hats and have grown exponentially due to a loyal following of customers who understand the meaning of fatherhood. Several celebrities and professional athletes have taken notice including: Alex Verdugo (Yankees), Russell Wilson (Steelers), Jrue Holiday (Celtics), Super Bowl Champion Jermaine Kearse and Dwayane Wade from the NBA.
Åtåcz was born out of a concern for the overwhelming amount of plastic water and soda bottles polluting our planet. Inspired by the desire to create a positive impact, a skilled knitter developed a unique solution. By repurposing discarded plastics, Åtåcz crafts stylish and durable bags that not only reduce waste but also showcase the beauty of sustainable design.
Ready to ditch single-use plastic and make a stylish statement? Åtåcz bags are the perfect eco-friendly accessory for your ultimate beach days, picnics, or back-to-school adventures. With their sleek designs and durable construction, they’re not only functional but also fashionable. My personal favorite is the Flexa Royal Blue with Utility Strap – it’s the perfect blend of style and practicality. As more people become conscious of their environmental impact, I predict Åtåcz bags will be a common sight on college campuses and in offices worldwide.
27 87’s unisex fragrances are a game-changer, offering scents that captivate everyone. I recently tried their Per Sé and was blown away. The compliments poured in, especially from the ladies. Trust me, a single spritz can turn heads. Imagine walking into an elevator and leaving an unforgettable scent trail. Per Sé’s notes are a symphony of violet leaves, pink and black pepper, aldehydes, bamboo, orris butter, a floral bouquet, angelica root, ambrette seeds, and musk. It’s a fragrance that’s both sophisticated and alluring. I hope to revisit other scents by 27 87 in the coming months.
