Vitalis Hair Tonic For Men, 7 Ounce

Product Information

In the 1960s, hair tonics and pomades all but dropped from most men’s daily regime with the introduction of styling gel and mousse. This was largely the case because items like mousse and hairspray held stronger than tonic. It has a high alcohol content that leaves the hair with the usual antiseptic smell. It is worth mentioning that it is a fire hazard due to its high alcohol level so beware of open flames. It comes in that classic glass bottle most are accustomed to seeing their grandfather used. It is cheap and a great entry into the hair tonic world. (Overall rating 4.0) Closing thoughts The business incorporated sometime in the late teens and was first listed as a New York Corporation in the 1919 NYC Copartnership and Corporation Directory with Morris named president and Max and Louis named secretary and treasurer respectively. Around the same time, the company moved to 125th Street where they were listed in the early 1920’s at 1 West 125th Street and later in the decade at 26 East 125th Street. For example, many hairsprays and hair gels have a fairly high alcohol content with no additional moisturizers resulting in dry, brittle after application. How does one use Hair Tonic? It goes without saying that if your favorite product ever stops being manufactured, or if you’ve run out of the currently available supply, your best bet is to look for a similar item from the same brand or some other company.

Not long after it was trademarked, drug stores began to include Vitalis in their newspaper advertisements. This advertisement for the Stanley Drug Co. of Philadelphia, published in the April 8, 1926 edition of Camden New Jersey’s Courier-Post, was one of the earliest I could find. L-B Vitalis was listed under the heading “Toilet Needs.”on the lower left (enlarged below the entire ad).They are still in business today, but there are rumors that they have discontinued their popular hair tonic. Twenty years later the message had changed very little as evidenced by this March 13, 1951 New York Daily News advertisement. Men have, since their inception, always been the primary users of hair tonics. These are unique from most hair care because they are almost always in liquid form (pomade is sometimes considered a tonic in some respects). Lewis Brothers, Inc., having sold Vitalis in 1931, continued to be listed in the New York City directories up through the early 1950’s as wholesale dealers in barber supplies. They remained at 26 East 125th Street up through at least the early to mid 1930’s. The bottle matches the one illustrated in the late 1920’s Lewis Brothers’ advertisements in the New York Daily News.

The way to handsome hair is through a healthy scalp. Your tight dry scalp can’t grow good-looking hair. It needs excercise, action, stimulation – it needs this twice-a-week schedule of 60 second workouts with Vitalis and massage.It, like your dad or grandfather, maybe exactly what you are looking for. After all, many men have used these tonics for decades for desired hair styling and health and live with the motto, “if it isn’t broke, why fix it?” The Vitalis brand was acquired by HRB Brands LLC in early 2021 to join other brands like Brut, Sure. As a result, many users are afraid they might not be able to get their Vitalis Hair Tonic again. Natural Men Tonic, 100% Pure Natural Organic Handmade Tincture, Herbal, Herbal Tea, Detox Tea 16 oz

Most times, you’ll find substitutes (even if doesn’t completely replace it), and other times, you may find there is no replacement. Reuzel products come from the origins of a men-only barbershop in Rotterdam. As looking for quality ingredients for their clients, these barbers researched and came up with what they believe are the world’s finest. Reuzel is a Dutch word for lard and serves as a wink to the past when hair care products were made with animal fat. The bottle I found is machine made and 16 ounces in size. It’s embossed “Lewis Brothers Inc.” on its side. “Vitalis, is embossed across the bottom and “this bottle property of Lewis Brothers, Inc.,” around the bottom’s perimeter. This dates it between 1924 when the Vitalis name was trademarked and 1931 when the product was acquired by Bristol-Myers. There has been a lot of concern around Vitalis Hair Tonic on the internet. “Is Vitalis Hair Tonic Discontinued?” Having searched for information myself, I think this is fair to say that it hasn’t been discontinued and that people are just looking for more information about it.On top of that, most hair tonics are usually scented and leave the hair smelling very well in addition to looking nice. Several of these benefits are detriments of other hair holding products.
