Schick Hydro helped guys groom for Comic Con with complimentary shaves  aboard the Assassin’s Creed Jackdaw Ship.

Schick Hydro offered free shaves for men.

 

Schick Hydro teamed up with Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag to offer shaves fit for even the toughest, most heavily bearded pirates aboard the Assassin’s Creed Jackdaw Ship last Friday and Saturday during Comic Con convention in San Diego.

 Two experts from Schick Hydro barbers offered guys smooth shaves with the cutting edge Schick Hydro 5 razor. Schick knew that clean shaven pirates “get more booty”, so men who came to get a customized shave received Schick Hydro 5 razors, and also had a chance to win prizes.

Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag begins in 1715, when pirates established a lawless republic in the Caribbean and ruled the land and seas. These outlaws paralyzed navies, halted international trade, and plundered vast fortunes.
They threatened the power structures that ruled Europe, inspired the imaginations of millions, and left a legacy that still endures.
