Because we need to show some appreciation for those dad jokes we love to hate and hate to love!
Father’s Day takes place this Sunday and it’s the perfect opportunity to show the men that raised us how much we love them. From motivational chats to driving lessons and intervening in sibling disputes, I think we can all agree dads put up with a good deal and deserve to be treated – but why are they so hard to buy for?
If you’re struggling in the present department again this year, fear not as we have a gift guide that’ll be sure to spark some inspiration ahead of the weekend.

You can control beard or stubble with ultimate precision and look sharper and cleaner than ever before. The Beard Boss has innovative capture trim blades which deliver a sharper cut with every glide.
