Welcome to the battle of the beards and the blades. It’s no cakewalk convincing people to shave these days, given that the popularity of facial hair is on the rise, so razor brands are pulling out all the stops to get men to buy their blades, including Super-Pharm’s private label brand Life M6. Along with agency Saatchi & Saatchi, it recently convinced an Israeli family man to shave it all off and then document the reactions of his disbelieving folks, kids and wife. Based on the responses (or sometimes lack thereof), one would think he came out of his mother’s womb with a beard. Watch how unrecognizable he becomes, and then smile as your heart melts with joy at his daughter’s candid reaction.
