Hommage: Setting The Standard in Men’s Grooming, Whom You Know Recommends the HOMMAGE Shave Sets and Shave Care Collection
HOMMAGE was co-founded by CEO Tom Wilscam and award-winning industrial designer Wolfgang Joennson to address the absence and growing need for a men’s luxury grooming brand that provides high-performance, results-driven treatments and products that offer a recharging “experience.” HOMMAGE products and treatments are designed specifically for men – from the ergonomically designed leather Santiago Shave Set reminiscent of sports car shift stick, to the male-centric ShaveCare and FaceCare products that feature ingredients meant to mimic and fortify men’s natural skin barrier, to the Gentleman’s face, head and body treatments that includes massage and stress-releasing acupressure techniques drawn from around the world. HOMMAGE is an “experience” that men can at luxury hotels and spas, as well as in the home, and shortly, at the HOMMAGE Gentleman’s Grooming Ateliers opening in select cities around the world.
HOMMAGE has developed a male-centric menu of luxuriously rejuvenating treatments, each designed to deliver an experience and an evident benefit to the mind, face, head or body. Currently, HOMMAGE services are offered at luxury hotels and spa partners in more than 20 countries and include: Paul Labrecque salon and spa at the Core: Club in New York City, Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas, the Montage in Beverly Hills, The Elysian in Chicago, Pelican Hill in Newport Coast, Fontainebleau in Miami and Tucker’s Point Club in Bermuda.
The HOMMAGE menu incorporates treatments that target a man’s specific skincare, body and hair-styling/trimming needs and includes the HOMMAGE Signature Shave, the Signature Gentlemen’s Black Diamond Facial, Hair and Head Grooming, Hand and Arm Grooming, Foot and Leg Grooming and Mind Health-focused protocols to recharge not only the body but the mind. The results-oriented treatments provide health benefits designed to improve a man’s performance in life while the products used during the treatments are available for easy, at-home use.
HOMMAGE offers results-driven formulations and unique ingredients strategically encapsulated in contemporary and innovative packaging. Developed over a two year period by the top men’s and women’s skincare formulators in the world, the ShaveCare, FaceCare and BodyCare collections provide immediate, proven results that address men’s special skincare needs. FaceCare and Shave Care offer a bespoke experience of ingredients never before used in a men’s line including: fresh water silt drawn from sediment 30,000 years old, sea whip extract and white truffle oil. Each product fills a specific need and works in tandem with others in the line to redefine the shaving process and includes such new innovations as “barrier-repair technology” that promotes cellular renewal, repair and protection from damage caused by shaving.
The new HOMMAGE Gentleman’s Grooming Atelier rolling out in 2009 will offer the innovative HOMMAGE products and bespoke treatments in an private ‘executive men’s club’ environment. The Grooming Atelier has taken the traditional European barber shop into the 21st century, offering a combination of spa and salon treatments in a contemporary, upscale environment, exclusive for men. All treatments are tailored to each customer based on a brief introductory consultation. The bespoke treatments, delivered in a barber chair for masculine comfort, range from 20 minutes to one hour, and are designed specifically for the man who cherishes his time, his privacy and his physical well-being and mind-health.
HOMMAGE has established its luxurious ShaveCare products, Shave Sets and the SpaCare line, with a strong presence in luxury retail, hotel and spa outlets. Launched in 2006, the visionary designs from HOMMAGE were a collaborative effort to bring innovation through technology and contemporary design to the fast growing men’s grooming market.
HOMMAGE is based in Paris, with distribution targeting luxury stores, hotels and spas across the United States and rapidly expanding to every corner of the globe. Both shave equipment and ShaveCare products are currently available at Bergdorf Goodman, Barneys New York, Saks Fifth Avenue, Fred Segal Beauty and other luxury stores across the United States.
