In terms of value, growth within the Canadian men's grooming market was predominantly driven by men's shaving. The segment grew at a CAGR of 2% in 2011 to reach a value of C$468 million. The results for men's shaving reflect the 2% rise in terms of current value sales in men's razors and blades, resulting in actual value terms of C$337 million in 2011.

The volume of men's razors and blades did however decline by approximately 1%, which means that a portion of the increase in value was due to price increases for individual products.
