Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - May 19, 2026) - Dove Men+Care is redefining modern men's grooming this weekend with the launch of the Dove Men+Care Barbershop, an exclusive two-day pop-up experience marking the brand's major hair care transformation in Canada. Taking over Toronto's celebrated Throne Barbershop on May 23-24, the activation invites men to experience the brand's latest innovation firsthand: a new lineup of 2-in-1 shampoos and conditioners engineered with breakthrough PROTEIN POWER technology.

Located in the heart of downtown Toronto, the Dove Men+Care Barbershop transforms premium grooming into an immersive brand experience. Guests will receive a 45 minute appointment featuring elevated services-including professional shampoo and conditioning treatments with the new formulas, precision tapers, beard line-ups, and signature hot towel rituals-all delivered by Throne Barbershop's expert team. Each service brings to life the brand's core belief: that strength is built on intentional care.

Elevated Performance Through Care

The Dove Men+Care Barbershop marks the official Canadian transformation of the brand's high-performance hair care collection, now powered by advanced PROTEIN POWER technology. Designed to address men's top hair needs, the new formulas work at a hair cellular level to repair and reinforce hair from the inside out.

PROTEIN POWER technology combines citric strength builders to reconnect broken protein bonds deep within the hair fiber, while the Protective Protein Shield helps defend against daily damage. The result: visibly stronger, healthier hair built on a foundation of consistent, science-backed care.

"True strength is rooted in care - the care we extend to others and the rituals we commit to for ourselves," says Maureen Kitheka, Head of Marketing for Dove Men+Care Hair. "The Dove Men+Care Barbershop brings that philosophy to life by merging cutting-edge hair science with the elevated grooming experience men deserve. By partnering with Throne Barbershop and showcasing our new PROTEIN POWER technology in action, we're proving that high-performance care and everyday confidence go hand in hand".
