Sweet Georgia Brown Cocoanut Oil Shampoo – the classic 1936 coconut-oil shampoo with the original Sweet Georgia Brown scent A shampoo just like back then – yet newly experienced today. Inspired by the historic 1936 Valmor formula and carrying the original Sweet Georgia Brown fragrance that has been known and loved for over er 90 years. A gentle, nourishing shampoo for ladies and gentlemen that cleanses without drying out – and brings an authentic vintage barbershop feeling straight into your bathroom. Silicone-free; preserved without parabens. Originally manufactured and distributed by Valmor Products Co. of Chicago, USA. The Sweet Georgia Brown Cocoanut Oil Shampoo was already one of the most popular products of the Valmor Products Co. Chicago during the 1930s. Alongside the legendary Sweet Georgia Brown pomades, it remained part of the brand’s core assortment until 1984. Now this classic returns – lovingly reintroduced, produced in the EU, and featuring a front label that faithfully reproduces the original 1936 Valmor artwork. Important for anyone who dislikes coconut scents: This shampoo does not smell like coconut. Despite its name, “Cocoanut Oil Shampoo,” it carries the iconic Sweet Georgia Brown fragrance known from the Hair Dressing Pomade and Hair Tonic – warm, slightly powdery, elegant, and unmistakable. The modern formula, inspired by the historic original, is a classic emulsified coconut-oil shampoo. It cleanses and conditions at the same time, leaving the hair soft, smooth and naturally shiny – without grease, and without the “squeaky-dry” feeling common in many strong shampoos. Key Ingredients & Benefits Emulsified Coconut Oil Derivatives (Coconut Oil Glycereth-8 Esters): Provide noticeable smoothness, reduce frizz, and give the hair a natural, heavier (in the best way) and more controlled fall. Decyl Glucoside & Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate: Mild modern surfactants based on sugar and amino acids for a gentle yet thorough cleanse. Glycerin: Helps retain moisture and contributes to a soft, conditioned hair feel. Tocopherol & Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E): Support hair and scalp care and help protect the formula. Benefits Classic barbershop shampoo inspired by the 1936 Valmor formula – with original-style label and scent. Gentle cleansing of hair and scalp without dryness or a rough, stripped feeling. Nourishing effect thanks to emulsified coconut-oil derivatives: smoother hair, easier combing, more control. Natural, healthy-looking shine without greasiness – ideal for a clean, well-groomed appearance. Unisex – suitable for ladies and gentlemen who enjoy traditional grooming products. Not a degreasing shampoo: Designed as a caring shampoo for regular washes and for removing pomade and styling residues without overwhelming the hair. Original Sweet Georgia Brown fragrance: No coconut scent – instead the warm, elegant 1930s barbershop aroma. The Effect Sweet Georgia Brown Cocoanut Oil Shampoo forms a creamy, emulsified lather around hair and scalp. It removes styling products and daily buildup while maintaining the natural scalp balance. After rinsing, hair feels clean, soft, and nourished, not stripped. Frizz is reduced, lengths appear more controlled, and hair falls more naturally – a difference especially appreciated by users of classic pomades or those who love smooth, softly draping hair. The Fragrance At the heart of this shampoo lies the original Sweet Georgia Brown fragrance used by Valmor in Chicago during the 1930s. It smells of Damask rose, lavender, cinnamon, clove, lemon peel, pine and vanilla. Warm, slightly sweet, powdery, elegant – a scent that instantly evokes classic barbershops, pomade shine, leather chairs, and Art Deco labels. No coconut scent: the coconut oil is part of the care effect, not the fragrance. How to Use Designed for regular use, ideally 1–2 times per week: Apply to wet hair. Massage gently into scalp and hair until a creamy lather forms. Rinse thoroughly with warm water. Depending on styling habits, a second wash may be used. Follow with your preferred pomade or styling product. FAQ Does Sweet Georgia Brown Shampoo contain silicones? No. The formula is silicone-free.

Sweet Georgia Brown Hair Tonic – featuring the original 1934 fragrance A hair tonic like back then—experienced anew. Featuring the original 1930s Sweet Georgia Brown scent, loved since 1934. A soothing men’s grooming ritual in the spirit of the 1930s that refreshes, invigorates, and cares for scalp and hair with timeless elegance. Traditionally made in the EU, original fragrance oil made in the USA. Since 1934, the name Sweet Georgia Brown has stood for classic pomade, immaculate style, and the unmistakable aroma of traditional barbershops. Before Sweet Georgia Brown became almost exclusively synonymous with pomade after 1984, the brand was part of the celebrated Valmor Products Company of Chicago in the 1930s and 1940s—famous for striking Art Deco labels, refined men’s grooming, and that authentic barbershop charm. Back then, the Sweet Georgia Brown range included pomades, brilliantine, hair tonics, and talcum powders—true American grooming staples. Today, the Sweet Georgia Brown Hair Tonic picks up that thread as the brand’s first new release in decades: a return to elegant, scent-driven barbershop grooming. At the heart of this tonic is the aroma—by design. It contains around 3% of the original, oil-based Sweet Georgia Brown fragrance oil—made in the USA—at a concentration more familiar from eau-de-colognes. Warm, slightly sweet, powdery, and unmistakably elegant: a barbershop accord that evokes pomade sheen, leather chairs, talc, and the charm of the 1930s. But this tonic offers more than a great scent: it refreshes the scalp, enlivens the senses, and leaves a naturally groomed finish with very light hold. Coconut Oil Esters, Creatine, and Allantoin care for hair and scalp—ideal for daily use, quick touch-ups, or as a classic barber finish after a cut. Hero Ingredients & Benefits Coconut Oil Esters: Provide lasting moisture and natural shine. Creatine: Strengthens the hair fiber and improves elasticity. Allantoin: Soothes and calms the scalp while supporting regeneration. Menthol: Adds a subtle sense of freshness and enhances the invigorating feel on scalp and hair. Benefits Hydrates the hair and adds a healthy, natural shine. Removes buildup and product residue from scalp and hair. Improves combability, even in damp hair. Acts like a light leave-in conditioner – ideal for daily use. Refreshes and revitalizes both scalp and hair throughout the day – without a strong cooling effect. Free From Free from silicones, parabens, acrylates, and PVP polymers – ingredients commonly found in modern grooming tonics. A pure, traditional formulation focused on performance and authenticity. Effect When massaged into hair and scalp, the tonic delivers a pleasant freshness, a smooth feel, and an airy, well-groomed look without weighing hair down. It helps the comb glide, evaporates quickly, and lets the legendary scent linger subtly throughout the day—perfect for mornings or a mid-day refresh. Scent The original 1930s Sweet Georgia Brown scent—warm, slightly sweet, faintly spicy, and powder-elegant. It smells of Damascus rose, lavender, cinnamon, clove, citrus peel, pine and vanilla. Loved since 1934. A fragrance that instantly calls to mind classic barbershops, pomade gloss, and refined men’s grooming. How to Use Massage a small amount evenly into hair and scalp. Ideal for daily care, refreshing your style, or as a scented finish after a haircut. For a neat, natural look with very light hold. Application in the palm Pour about one teaspoon into your palms, rub together, then work vigorously into scalp and hair until lightly set. Style as usual—ideally with Sweet Georgia Brown Pomade (once available). Pre- & post-cut in the barbershop Pre-cut: Massage a small amount into the scalp to invigorate and prepare hair for cutting. Post-cut: Massage a little tonic again, then comb gently with the grain for a clean, fresh finish and refined scent. Barbershop ritual, 1930s style For a classic experience: before application, place a warm, damp towel on the scalp for 1–2 minutes to open the pores and enhance both scent and care. Then massage in the tonic, comb through, and complete the style with pomade. Note Avoid contact with eyes. Bottled in a clear 500 ml (16.9 fl. oz.) glass bottle. Made in the Czech Republic (EU).
