BIG APPLE BUSINESS: John Allan
Only a handful of true originals command the defining title of “pioneer.” It’s reserved for the most accomplished, and most significant people in a single industry that has experienced change. Clearly standing out as the pioneer of the men’s grooming industry is John Allan who started with a bold mission in 1988 – to change the landscape of men's grooming and style one client at a time – one city at a time. Now twenty years later, John Allan has not only redefined the landscape, he has set a new standard – creating renowned destinations that combine the atmosphere of a private club with a full grooming outpost for men. With multiple locations throughout New York and most recently Chicago, an award-winning product line, and plans for global expansion, his unique vision and determination have paved the way for the industry, and made John Allan’s a standard among professional men. Whom You Know is pleased to kick off our coverage of John Allan to give our male readers some equal time, catching up with all of Peachy Deegan's tips for women!
HAIR CARE
Staying true to his philosophy of making men the focus and not an afterthought, John Allan teamed up with several chemists across the United States to help design formulas based on vitamins, botanicals, and marine plant extracts. Through extensive research and development John Allan developed a hair care line specifically for men that addressed the issues of performance, packaging and even scent. Over the next 2 years, he was able to turn to the best testing lab he could find - his thousands of New York City clients. Feedback from both clients and stylists was used to direct, refine, and perfect each formulation leading to the national launch in 2003. Today, John Allan’s hair care products have become one of the top lines available in the industry.
SHAVE & SKIN CARE
After developing his hair care line, John Allan created an advanced line of skin care and shaving products that men really needed and wanted while incorporating key active ingredients including an essential foundation of vitamins, botanicals and natural emollients with the latest scientific advancements in skin care. The line not only provides men with healthy and balanced skin, it gives them a shaving process and skin care regimen that they can commit to and trust.
