PMB’s Festival Checklist





The clocks go forward in just over a week and we’re looking forward to the days getting longer, more of that lovely sun we saw at the weekend, and the start of FESTIVAL SEASON!




Whether you’re hitting up Glastonbury, Bestival or Lovebox this summer, it’s important for a Pall Mall Gentleman to always look his best. Even after three days in a tent. The team at Pall Mall Barbers are a bunch of seasoned festival-goers and have a few top tips for looking fetching in a field, so make sure these secret weapons make it into your wash bag this summer.




Talc
Hair getting a bit lank and greasy? Shower queues a mile long? Rub a small amount of talc in a circular motion through the hair. It’ll pick up grease and any lingering oil-based product in the hair. Simples.




Non-Setting Products
Feel fresher and use a lighter product in your hair during your festival stint, preferably one that doesn’t leave a residue. An ideal product for festival use is Pall Mall Barbers Matt Clay. Formulated by the boffs at PMB towers, you can easily shake out a light product like this and style it all over again in the morning.




Wet wipes and moisturiser
Don’t be the one who gets sunstroke and ruins it for everyone, lads. A quick once over with non-scented wet wipes will keep you fresh as a daisy all day, but it’s also essential to moisturise if you’re exposed to the elements all day. And only more so if you’re indulging in a beer or three. We swear by Jack Black Double Duty Moisturiser. With SPF 20 protection built in, your skin be moisturised and protected in one.




Smell good and get the girls
• Aftershave fades the soonest
• Eau de Toilette fades after a few hours
• Eau de Parfum lasts the longest.




We highly recommend Jack Black Eau de Parfum. It’s a fresh and clean scent that lasts long but is never overbearing. Most of the female Pall Mall Barbers find the smell attractive, so needless to say the male side of PMB are now all applying it liberally!




Have a great week,

The PMB Team
