Introducing
Parkside Apothecary
I'm Ryan, the founder of Parkside Apothecary. We're on a mission is to provide premium grooming products to men, while providing well-being support to our younger generation so they may live a life free from distress. Our hair products are made with natural ingredients and exclude unnecessary chemicals that can damage your hair. All of our grooming oils and hair clays are made in small batches with care.
We provide support to our young people that are struggling with suicidal ideation, anxiety and depression. The team at Parkside Apothecary have pledged to donate 10% of profits to Gumboot Friday. Gumboot Friday is run by the Key to Life Charitable Trust and provides funding for private care and counselling services for Kiwi's under the age of twenty-five. You can feel confident that 100% of the money we donate goes towards providing free counselling for young people by registered mental health practitioners here in NZ.
