DTCetc’s Take

About Dollar Shave Club

Dollar Shave Club is an American company founded by Mark Levine and Michael Dubin in 2011 that delivers affordable, well-made personal grooming products to its subscribers by mail. The company has since expanded beyond razors to include a wide variety of products, such as shave butter, post-shave creams, skincare items, shampoo, conditioner, and toothpaste. Subscribers can customize their own box and receive regular refills, and non-subscribers can still shop for individual items. All orders that include refill blades come with free shipping, and the more products you order, the higher the discount. Additionally, Dollar Shave Club offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Who Shops At Dollar Shave Club

Dollar Shave Club primarily targets men in their social media marketing, but their products can be used by both men and women. Although there is no specific category of products for women, it is possible to find unisex items on the website.
