hair tonic
Barbershop bottle contents
Hair tonic is a liquid applied to the scalp to promote hair health, stimulate growth, or add shine and hold.
The term evokes an earlier era when men visited barbershops for grooming: The barber finished with a splash of hair tonic.
Modern products serve similar purposes but rarely use the old-fashioned name.
