Logo Design Brief
We need a logo for a new brand. The brand is for men's barber and grooming products. We would like to incorporate and blend these concept together and inspire these feelings - modern, vintage, and gentleman.
Please make careful reference to "men's barber" especially those vintage ones. For grooming products, these products include razor blades, shave creams, and other bathroom products for men's grooming needs.

Requirements
Must have
- Font and logo graphic
The font should be manly (gentlemanly to be precise) but is also modernized. Please don't make the font too wild or too hardcore. Just plain simple gentlemanly font.
The main concept for the logo graphic is the hairdresser's scissor crossed with the razor blade. This is very important, because our business is for barber and selling razor blades. I have attached my mock-up idea with this brief, use it as a reference and please don't stray too far from the main ideas.
The razor blade must be razor system (cartridge razors) - not any other types.
Nice to have
- Vintage, modern, gentleman, font and graphic together OR font and graphic separated (see attached mock-up)
A variation of colors for the logo - black white silver etc. and one unique color which is orange - not a bright orange.
I would also stress "simplicity" - as seen in my mock-up, you do not need to go overboard with the design. If you like, you can even the mock-up and make it perfect.
