The Manday Story
Manday Grooming Co makes natural men's grooming products for hair, beard, body, shave and fragrance - handmade in small batches in our own lab in West Kelowna, British Columbia. Your one stop-shop for men's grooming, we formulate and manufacture everything ourselves, right here in Canada. No outsourcing, no compromises.
How Manday started
Manday began in 2016 with two friends, Evan Ward and Shon Noda, and one simple frustration: we couldn't find grooming products that actually worked and were made with natural ingredients. So we started making our own hair pomade in the kitchen of a condo. After about a year and a half of research, testing and a few local markets, the products were good enough to share with the world.
The name comes from a standing tradition of meeting up with friends every Monday - a "Manday" to catch up, connect and share a few laughs. Friendship, connection and not taking yourself too seriously are still built into everything we make.
What we make
Everything you need for a grooming routine, natural products made for men:
- Beard oil and beard balm
- Pomade, hair clay and styling, plus shampoo and conditioner
- Natural deodorant, palm-free bar soap and hand & body cream
- Shave and face care, and our essential-oil cologne
Tested on dudes, not dogs.
Manday products are cruelty-free. We don't test on animals, we don't work with suppliers who do, and we don't use animal by-products like lanolin or beef tallow. Our products are tested by us, on us.
Natural ingredients, nothing you don't need.
We use natural ingredients wherever we can, and Canadian-grown ingredients whenever we can. Every Manday product is over 85% natural, and most are over 95%. What we leave out matters too: no phthalates, parabens, petroleum, SLS or artificial colours. Everything your hair, beard and skin need, and nothing they don't. (Yes, hemp seed oil is one of our favourite ingredients - but it's one of many.)
Made in-house, in Canada.
We do it all under one roof. From formulating each product to designing the labels, manufacturing, filling and shipping, every step happens in our West Kelowna lab. Owning the whole process is how we keep quality high and our products genuinely our own. It's why we can make custom and private-label products for other brands, too. Work with us →

Normal is overrated. We build our brand and our products around staying true to yourself and standing out, we want them to help you do the same. Every product has its own personality and story, just like the people who use it. #StayWeird
