“I’ve tried a lot of shaving oils

“I’ve tried a lot of shaving oils, but SweynForkBeard has completely raised the bar. This all-natural formula glides smoothly, softens my beard instantly, and leaves my skin feeling hydrated without any greasy residue. The subtle, invigorating scent makes every shave feel like a mini-spa experience. Knowing it’s made from natural ingredients makes it even better. It’s now an essential part of my grooming routine—I can’t imagine going back to anything else!”

Sweyn junk poor quality poor customer service

My daughter traveled to London and purchased me a razor as a gift. The issue after she got back to the states and gave it to me and I actually opened the nice little black box it comes in the razor was machined wrong where the head of the razor threads to the handle does not even thread to the handle, it just slides in and falls out. So, it's junk and useless can't use. I emailed the company back and forth sent photos, my daughter used Apple pay but because it was in April and she did not give me the gift right away, then I didn't notice right away they can't do anything. Obviously the razor is still new, never used, it can't be used. So obviously their quality control sucks. Then to top it off their customer service sucks.

Great customer service from Daniella

Great customer service from Daniella, who recommended a small kit to take to work with me to maintain my beard throughout the day. I then ordered a larger set with a brush. All products are very good quality and they have a great selection of scents what ever your taste is! There are not many beard stores for lads so to see this one so close to home is great for me, they also offer refills on oils which is also great.

False advertising?

They posted a message about January sales with “up to 50% off” on top of a discount code of 20%. Although the discount code was real there were no products discounted so it seemed like false advertising to lure people in. Moreover, they don’t include the tax until checkout and any discounts are cancelled out once this is added. When I asked them show me products with discounts they appeared to delete my comment and to have blocked me on social media. Have been a loyal customer before and placed my recent order but this will probably be the last time.

Hello Benjamin Lovegrove, honestly you have too much drama on social media. We canceled your order and issued a refund. We have more than 10 years in the market with a lovely and loyal customer base, and we love good vibes only and cero drama. So if you doubt of us, why order from us and use the winter sale discount code?

Amazing place for men with beards

Amazing place for mens products but not all about shaving . Also womens products too. I loved the place in Camden stables market and I miss the hairdresser that they used to have there as before I used to go it regularly. The staff are so cool fun and amazing and helpful too. All products all over the world work different for everyone and I have used products from here and I’ve tried some and I have sensitive skin and I’ve had no problems. Cool place in Camden stables Market so go have a look especially guys with beards etc and don’t forget they do have womens products too.

Poor product and poor customer care

This is sold as a high quality product with a price that matches. I only shave once or twice a week and was bought the brush last Christmas. It is loosing hairs rapidly which really doesn’t feel nice when shaving and I no longer use it. What’s most disappointing though is that I contacted Sweyn Forkbeard to let them know and they haven’t even bothered to reply.

Hello, sorry to hear you are disappointed,
but unfortunately if any shaving brush is not placed in a stand so the bristles can dry, could weak the knot and lose bristles. That is why for over a hundred of years we recommend to use a stand.
Thanks

The products I got are just top shelf! When it comes to products for beard care, this brand really stood out because of their 100% organic products! I bought a razor from them which is made of bone and looks perfect as a collection piece or while shaving

straight blade razor…

I purchased a straight blade razor whilst visiting London for a gift. After gifting the razor it was noticed that there was a defect in the blade. I contacted the company who were very unhelpful and provided very poor customer service. Products apparently don’t come with a guarantee. I certainly won’t be purchasing from them again.

Hello Hayley, we provide a legal guarantee, but you bought a razor in February 2023 and claimed in October 2023 that you opened and had a problem. We can´t provide a lifetime guarantee and you should open the product when you bought it 10 months ago. Sorry that you are not happy with the situation, as our customer's satisfaction is a priority for us, but we can refund a product bought it 10 months ago.

Sweyn Forkbeard beard shampoo and beard…

Hi, I came across your beard shampoo and conditioner some months ago.
After using them, I ran out and did not re-order. What a mistake that was. I have gone months with a dry and out of condition beard.
I have took my delivery recently and started to use the products. Wow! it is amazing, feels so good.
Will not make that mistake again.
Thanks, Steve. Mr Soft Beard now

Awful product with equally awful customer service- AVOID!

This company clearly hate to hear the truth and are rude when informing them of a problem with their product- look at their other poor reviews and responses.
Bought a jasmine shampoo bar from Camden Market store this last week. My hair following was coated in goodness knows what- it was the worst shampoo bar I’ve ever used. I had to use a cleansing shampoo to get it out. I am now covered head to toe in eczema- never had a problem with natural products before.
Contacted the company and they were so patronising! Asked to return for a refund as not fit for purpose- well this was like red rag to a bull. Couldn’t care less as they’ve got your money (they said as much).
Avoid this company, they aren’t worth your money and their products are far from natural! They have the worst attitude ever when messaging them! I’ll contact my bank next week, send them all the messages sent. I won’t let them get away with this!
UPDATE FROM RESPONSE-
All utter lies. I have a bank statement and a receipt from this company. They didn’t want to see it as they “don’t do refunds!” even for products that’s left you in a complete mess.
Thankfully my bank have all screenshots taken from their Facebook chat to prove what’s happened! Hahaha not a customer! Tell visa that!! I will also add this response as again evidence they are complete liars!
You are essentially scammers please please take heed in my warnings!
I’d happily add the photos if I could! I will ensure this doesn’t happen to anyone else.
Considering what I do for a job and this response, it’s slander. Be very very careful, I am more than happy to take it further!
If you don’t get a positive review you turn nasty!
Your company will never ever be a success like this.
Just save your money everyone, there are some amazing proper natural companies out there! And finally yes I have written 4 bad reviews in my whole life and you are one of them, tin star for being so rubbish!
FINAL UPDATE—
I managed to get a full refund from visa disputes.

Please note this company has been an utter nightmare! Called me a scammer and said I didn’t buy from them. Not to mention requested this review to be removed! Also a social media outlet also reinstated my video review too that you also lied when reporting it.

See above tick on this review that states verified. I’ve supplied trust pilot with all my proof of purchase and they have verified that I purchased this product!
Sveyn Forkbeard you can lie all you like but the truth always prevails, I sat back patiently and waited!

Think carefully before attempting to do what you’ve done to me before doing it to others. You’ve made yourself look utterly incompetent and the true liars you are! Clearly others have just accepted your behaviour, I had no intention of that.

Thanks to trustpilot for all their support! 👏🏻
P.s. MAYBE it’s you that should think about what you are spreading around this world!

Hello, first at all you aren´t a customer and you never bought us a product. We requested you a proof of payment or receipt and you just wanted a 6 pounds refund for something you never paid for.
Second, we tracked your reviews to other companies and were all the same, negative reviews, asking for compensation, and damaging compaies reputation. You should rethink what are you bringing to this world, spread love and no hate would be a good start.
This is not about being rude, is about that small companies like us are targeted by scammers daily, and we need to protect from them.
Thanks God, we have beedn since 2015 producing male grooming products and have a loyal and happy customer base, real people, who use our products in their daily routines.

Excellent experience with this Luxury almond shave cream.
The perfect performance cream for a classic safety razor shave.
Rich, creamy and smelling so good.
Perfect value for money and highly recommended
As good , if not better than most other luxury branded shaving products.
Certainly a 5 star product, highly recommended.

Worth growing your beard for…

I’ve been using Sweyn Forkbeard beard oils, balms and conditioner as part of my daily routine for a few years now since I was introduced to the products via my son. The fragrance of the British Gentleman products is simply mesmerising. Always superbly presented and made with well selected natural ingredients. I even bought the donkey milk soap once as a trial and was amazing. I’m a picky person and I consider their work well worth the money. If I was ever around London I’d pop in for a trim as no doubt the service in person would be as amazing as the service and products online. Nope not on any form of commission just a very loyal and happy customer. RW xxx
