Gillette’s Facial Hair Styling Tool for Men
Gillette, the world’s leading male grooming brand, has announced a partnership with three entertainment icons to unveil a precision styling tool for men with facial hair – Gillette Fusion ProGlide Styler.
Musician and fashion designer André 3000 Benjamin, actor Gael García Bernal and Academy Award-winning actor Adrien Brody will serve as brand ambassadors to help Gillette celebrate the individuality of men with facial hair.
Recent research conducted by Gillette reveals that facial hair styling is a common practice undertaken by nearly 40 percent of men in North America and that this process is critical in defining their look.

To address the needs of these men, Procter & Gamble (P&G) assembled a team of scientists from two world-leading grooming brands – Braun and Gillette – with the common goal of developing a precise 3-in-1 solution for men’s facial hair styling needs.
Gillette Fusion ProGlide Styler combines Braun’s trimming technology with Gillette’s most advanced blade technology helping men trim evenly, shave closely and edge accurately – so they can master their facial hair style with ease.
