Salon to ‘revolution­ise’ men’s grooming in Dundee

- By EMMA NEWLANDS

A new male grooming venue known as The Mantuary has opened in Dundee, including a remit to help foster the mental wellbeing of clients.

Those behind the new venture on Commercial Street say it has been designed to be more than the average salon, “inspired by the secret and shadowy clubs of the 1920s”, and aims to “revolution­ise” male self-care in the increasing­ly trendy city. In addition to providing traditiona­l barbering services, manicures, pedicures, waxing, and even holistic therapies such as reflexolog­y and Indian head massage are on offer, with guests invited to enjoy a coffee and “savour the ambience” before and after their appointmen­ts.

Additional­ly, as well as space to catch up with emails, chat with friends, or just enjoy some down time, theideaofs­upportingc­lient mental wellbeing is “central”tothesalon.eachmember of the team has completed mental health first aid training, and a bespoke CBD product line designed to relax and destress is currently in production.
