Several prominent conservatives have called for a boycott of Harry's over the razor company's partnership with a transgender influencer.
Blogger Matt Walsh was among the right-wing voices to criticize Harry's over the weekend. Writing on X, formerly Twitter, Walsh wrote: "We've taken down Bud Light. Now it's Harry's turn."
As Walsh noted, the backlash against Harry's follows a widespread boycott of Bud Light and its parent company Anheuser-Busch InBev after it was revealed in April that the beer brand had a small branded partnership with transgender influencer and activist Dylan Mulvaney. Several prominent conservatives—including Republican Representative Dan Crenshaw of Texas and musicians like Kid Rock—denounced Bud Light for the partnership, and Anheuser-Busch InBev continues to experience financial repercussions from the boycott.
"This company only wants your business if you are uberwoke. Everyone else should take the hint and take their money elsewhere," Walsh wrote in a follow-up X post that included a video from the End Wokeness account of Harry's CEO Andy Katz-Mayfield using the terms "birthing parents" and "non-birthing parents."
Many of the people condemning Harry's on social media included clips of the company's shaving products being used by Luke Wesley Pearson, a popular transgender digital creator.
Pearson, who frequently posts content with products from partners, has shared videos promoting Harry's during the holiday season of 2022 as well as during Pride Month in June.
"Celebrating my first Pride with facial hair!" Pearson wrote in a video posted to Instagram, which showed him and his wife using Harry's razors.

I’m old school: I shave with Wilkinson Sword double-edge blades in a Merkur safety razor, using shaving soap which I lather up with a badger brush and a shaving mug.
A woman dresses like a man, cuts off her breasts, and takes hormones to mimic a man by growing facial hair and then shaves off the facial hair so her skin is once again smooth like a woman’s.
Did I miss any steps?
Nope. “She” is just a female pretending to be male.
Personally, I prefer electric razors.
Sorry guys. They’re cheap, they’re sharp yet safe. I shave in less time and have cut myself around ten times in the last five years. Half the time I don’t even have to use shave cream. So I’ll go on using them.
“Old school” does not have to have a negative connotation. Cheaper and just as efficient—as if that is not enough.
Never heard of them. Can’t boycott.
Now that I am getting close to retirement anyway, one good blade shave a week is good enough for me. I use an electric the rest of the time.
That’s unfortunate. Harry’s is by far the best razor on the market in both price and quality of shave and longevity of the razor.
I had one of those, cut myself to ribbons. Couldn’t get the hang of it. Loved the hardware, though, nice stuff.
Still use a shaving brush, gave up the canned foaming goo ~15 years ago.
Tried them once years ago when they were “up and coming” actually liked their product....then about 4-5 years ago they started spouting liberal S^&# so I decided I wouldn’t buy from them again and haven’t since.
If you’re confused about whether you are a woman or not, if you have to shave your face you are not a woman.
Goodbye Hairys
Easy boycott- poor product IMHO
You never met my ex-wife;-)
I’m stuck with realizing that at $9.99 for 4 vs $5 each for Gillette I’m not switching back.
Too many other reasons to hate P&G besides Gillette.
