Hipstervention

Client: BIC Flex 3 Razors

Hipsters! Beards! They’re everywhere and that’s a problem when you sell razors.

So how did we help BIC Flex 3 get these men to shave? We staged ‘Hipstervention’s’ and got friends, to shame friends on social media into becoming themselves again.

First a social, video and outdoor campaign lured in 22,000 friends ready to perform Hipstervention’s. Directing them to a website exposing the dreadful truth about hipsters. A free Hipstervention Kit provided all the tools necessary to shave one.

BIC had their highest sales month on record. But more importantly they didn’t just shave beards, BIC shaved lives.

Bic Flex 3 razor packaging with features like flexible blades, aloe and vitamin E lubricating strip, pivoting head, and premium rubber handle.
