Mancave Chatswood does the whole gamut of men’s grooming

When Abbas Maqbool, the guy behind the Mancave grooming brand, opened their sixth store in less than as many weeks, it was a massive punt; but a punt that paid off. Mancave has fast become a Sydney institution for dudes, offering everything from the stock-standard haircut, to a shave, hydrodermabrasion and the sale of some seriously schmick colognes, skin and hair products. The new grooming cave is dark, the finishes are wooden, the space is welcoming and the haircuts are sharp. If you’ve got a beard, get that done for an additional fee as you’re reclined, pampered with all the hot towels and transformed into your best self. Mancave stocks some of the nicest products for your face and bod out there. From the men’s Keune range to colognes imported right from England, they’re all about the best range ifs tuff for men without all the fuss. And add onto that, a range of Abbas’ own sourced, manufactured and produced colognes called ‘Q’, the range is as far-reaching as they are nice to look at. Though, to be honest, if you want fuss, it’s there to be taken. Complete with a room down the back for teeth whitening and private consultations, Mancave offers something for the flashier yet more private clientele, too. From the casual attitude of the whole establishment, to the fine buzz they take to the back and sides of your head with, Mancave knows they’re doing and does it well.
