As a boy, Dino Caracciolo spent Saturdays at his family's Toronto barbershop, Mike & Armando's, which first opened its doors in 1965. Sweeping floors, serving coffee, and learning from skilled barbers sparked a lifelong passion for the craft.

A Word From Our Founder

"After more than four decades behind the barber chair, I've learned that great men's grooming products should do more than look good on the shelf—they should deliver professional results every single day.

Now retired from barbering, I dedicate all of my time and passion to Crown Shaving Co. Every formula is developed with premium ingredients and made without artificial colourants, parabens, or sulphates, giving you the performance of professional barber products while being gentle on your skin and hair.

My goal has always been simple: create grooming products I'd be proud to use in my own barbershop and recommend to every client who sat in my chair. I hope they become a trusted part of your daily grooming routine, too".

— Dino Caracciolo
