Lucky Tiger Europe

The story of Lucky Tiger has been handed down from generation to generation. The legend began in the 1920’s, in Kansas City, Missouri, USA in the basement of Benjamin Clarke, an amateur scientist and a passionate barber. Ben created a tonic for the hair and scalp that was different and better than any other product at the time and called it “Lucky Tiger Tonic.” Everyone who visited Ben’s Barber shop got the royal treatment – a shave, a haircut and a generous splash of Lucky Tiger Tonic. As the popularity of Lucky Tiger Tonic grew Ben began to sell it out of his shop, but people heard far and wide and wanted to get it outside of Missouri.

In 1935 Lucky Tiger was trademarked and an iconic American brand was officially born. As the popularity and product reputation spread, barbers across America began using and selling the entire range of Lucky Tiger products: shaving creams, moustache waxes, shampoos, hair dressings, hair tonics, hair waxes, face cleansers, skin astringents, face lotions, cleansing masks, acne preparations and tooth whitening powders. In the coming years Lucky Tiger became the most popular brand of men’s grooming and barbershop products in America.
