What Bevel does
Bevel is a private U.S. men’s grooming brand founded in 2013 by Tristan Walker and operated as Walker & Co. Brands, Inc., d/b/a Bevel, under Procter & Gamble ownership. It serves primarily Black men and men with sensitive skin or textured hair needs, with a portfolio spanning shaving, skin care, body care, hair and beard care, and professional grooming tools. The brand is based in San Francisco and sells through its owned ecommerce site and Amazon rather than disclosed enterprise or wholesale customer contracts.
The product architecture combines consumable regimens and hardware. Consumables include shave kits, cleansers, exfoliating toner pads with 10% glycolic acid, face gel, body wash, lotion, deodorant, beard oil, shampoo, conditioner, and the 2026 Body Cream formulated with cocoa butter, shea butter, and hyaluronic acid. Hardware includes the Bevel Trimmer and Bevel Pro, with features such as electronic Power Fade gap control, LED gap readouts from 0.0-2.5mm, a patented Snap Lock modular attachment system, magnetic guards, and T-Blade attachments.
Revenue comes from one-time consumer product and hardware sales, replacement parts and accessories, and subscription replenishment for refills. Public pricing spans low-ticket consumables such as the $11.95 Face & Beard Wash, bundles such as the $89.95 Shave Kit, and hardware such as the $259.95 Bevel Pro; BEVEL+ adds loyalty points, VIP tiers, 15% subscription refill discounts, and referral incentives to increase repeat purchasing.

Bevel competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Scotch Porter: Scotch Porter is a men's grooming brand specifically formulated for Black men, offering beard care, skincare, and hair products through DTC channels. It is the closest direct competitor to Bevel in the Black men's grooming niche, serving the same target customer with similar product categories.
- SheaMoisture: SheaMoisture (under Unilever) is a leading brand offering hair, skin, and body care products formulated for Black consumers with textured hair and skin needs. While broader in target demo than Bevel, it competes directly in the same Black consumer grooming space with overlapping product categories.
- PATTERN Beauty: PATTERN Beauty, founded by Tracee Ellis Ross, offers hair care products specifically designed for curly, coily, and textured hair—a core consumer segment overlapping with Bevel's primary customer base. Both brands share a mission-driven approach to serving Black consumers.
- Cantu Beauty: Cantu is a mass-market hair care brand specializing in products for textured, curly, and natural hair. It overlaps with Bevel in serving Black consumers with grooming needs, particularly in hair care and styling product categories.
- Harry's: Harry's is a leading men's grooming DTC brand offering razors, shave care, beard products, and body care. While targeting men broadly rather than specifically Black men, it competes with Bevel in the same DTC men's shave and grooming category with similar business model and price points.
- Dollar Shave Club: Dollar Shave Club (now under Unilever) pioneered the men's razor subscription DTC model and offers shave, skin, and body products. It competes with Bevel in the men's grooming subscription/refill business model and shave system category.
- Dr. Squatch: Dr. Squatch is a men's grooming DTC brand focused on natural bar soaps, body care, and deodorant products with strong brand identity. It competes with Bevel's body care and skin product lines through a similar DTC subscription model.
- Manscaped: Manscaped is a men's personal care and grooming tool brand specializing in electric trimmers and below-the-waist grooming products. It overlaps with Bevel's hardware business (trimmers, clippers) and men's grooming DTC model, though targeting a different specific use case.
Broad incumbents
- Gillette: Gillette is the dominant global men's shaving brand and a sister P&G brand to Bevel. It competes broadly in razors, blades, and shave care products at massive scale, representing the incumbent competitive benchmark that Bevel differentiates against through community-focused positioning.
- Wahl Professional: Wahl is a leading manufacturer of professional-grade hair clippers, trimmers, and grooming tools with deep penetration in the barber channel. It is a direct competitive threat to Bevel's professional grooming tools business (Bevel Pro, Trimmer series) on features, brand recognition, and professional relationships.
