    What Happened to Legacy Shave After Shark Tank?

    Legacy Shave

    Shaving is a part of every guy’s grooming routine but the normal way of applying shaving cream by hand is messy. Legacy Shave aims to provide the “ultimate shaving experience” with its combination of a shaving foam can and a brush. Founder Mike Gutow appeared on season 14 of Shark Tank and got a deal with Lori Greiner. As of 2023, Legacy Shave is worth an estimated $1 million.

    About the Founder

    Mike Gutow hails from St. Clair Shores, Michigan and has a bachelor’s degree in business from Michigan State University. Only Mike appeared on television but he’s not the sole founder.

    There’s also his brother, Dave Gutow, and their late father. However, not much is known about the two. On the other hand, Mike had a long career in business before becoming an entrepreneur.

    The most significant venture he launched in his career was Gutow Management, a real estate firm. In 2014, he created a charitable organization called Save Lake St. Clair in an attempt to save the lake from more pollution.

    Founding Legacy Show

    While they were still college students, Dave and Mike had the idea of making a shaving brush with an attached shaving foam can. They told their old man about the concept, and he helped make a prototype.

    Initially, the brothers didn’t launch the product because they got busy with work. When their father died from cancer, the Gustow brothers discovered that he secretly had around 3,000 brushes in his basement.

    They took it as a sign to finally launch the product in 2016. They named it the Legacy Shave to honor their dad. In 2019, they made redesigns, launched a Kickstarter campaign, and surpassed their goal in less than a day.

    Getting on Shark Tank

    Over the years, the startup has received a lot of recognition from major media outlets. This includes The View, Good Morning America, and Today. However, the founders needed more than just exposure.

    They were looking to raise capital to keep pace with growing demand and expand the business. Mike applied to appear on the show and got accepted by Shark Tank producers. Having a unique story to share always helps as the producers want to keep viewers engaged.

    After Shark Tank

    The episode was a tearjerker and the exposure from Shark Tank should have helped them sell well over 1,000 units. The show aired in November 2022 and saw a big increase in orders around Christmas. For now, they only ship to the United States excluding Hawaii and Alaska. As of April 2023, their products are out of stock due to strong demand.

    Fans of the shaving tool can purchase it on Amazon, Walmart, QVC.com, and their official website, LegacyShave.com. They also sell to wholesale partners who can buy a 24 case pack for $37.19.

    The product has a strong track record on Amazon, averaging 4.3 stars from 217 customer reviews. This number is expected to grow along with their valuation. Currently, Legacy Shave is worth an estimated $1 million.

    Bringing on Lori as a partner will be huge for the company. Lori is one of the most successful investors on Shark Tank for a reason. Although it’s a pity they gave away a huge chunk of equity, Lori will need to invest a lot of time and resources to make it a success. Despite this, it appears the deal with Greiner hasn’t closed yet.
