# Steady Peak Grooming

[Steady Peak Grooming](https://grooming.mock.shop/llms.txt) is a [mock.shop](https://www.mock.shop/) sample store for building against a men’s grooming shop before a real Shopify store is ready. The catalog includes hair pomades, shaving sets, grooming kits, sculpting clays, beard care products, and travel kits. There are 30 products across four collections. Each product has one option selector; its label and choices depend on the item.

mock.shop is an auth-free Shopify Storefront GraphQL API backed by sample reference stores. Find out more about [mock.shop sample stores](https://www.shopify.com/blog/mock-shop).

## When to use this store

Choose Steady Peak Grooming when you want to build a grooming shop organized around shaving, styling, and travel kits.

Use Steady Peak Grooming for:

- Men's grooming store with hair pomades, shaving sets, sculpting clays, and beard care products
- Matte-Finish Hair Pomade product pages with `finish` choices
- Browsing shaving and travel-kit collections and combining grooming essentials in a cart

Choose another mock.shop store if you need a broader haircare shop centered on shampoos, conditioners, masks, and brushes. Browse <https://mock.shop/llms.txt> to find a store that matches your catalog.

## Example Steady Peak Grooming query

Here’s an example GraphQL `POST` request that retrieves options and variant prices for one product from <https://grooming.mock.shop/api>:

```bash
curl https://grooming.mock.shop/api \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{"query":"{ product(handle: \"matte-finish-hair-pomade\") { id title options { name values } variants(first: 50) { pageInfo { hasNextPage } nodes { id title selectedOptions { name value } price { amount currencyCode } compareAtPrice { amount currencyCode } availableForSale } } } }"}'
```

This query retrieves Matte-Finish Hair Pomade, including option values, variant IDs, selected options, availability, and current and compare-at prices. Use the selected variant’s ID and price when adding it to a cart.

The endpoint doesn't require authentication or an access token. Read <https://grooming.mock.shop/llms.txt> for catalog details and store-specific instructions.

## What this catalog lets you test

Build a grooming shop organized around shaving, styling, and travel kits. Steady Peak Grooming’s products have no assigned taxonomy categories, so use their four collections, including The Daily Ritual Shave Set and The Nomad Traveler Kit, for navigation. Each product has one selector, so customers can choose a variant and add it to a kit-focused cart without working through several menus. Some sample choices are unusual: the Matte-Finish Hair Pomade uses finish values such as brushed steel and matte black. Display those as supplied, not as claims about hold strength or ingredients.

Preview the catalog in a storefront by opening <https://grooming.hydrogen.mock.shop> in a browser.

## Build with an AI coding tool

To build a men's grooming storefront with Steady Peak Grooming using Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Lovable, or another AI assistant, copy the prompt below. It gives the assistant the store domain and directs it to the catalog instructions before it starts writing code.

```text
Build me a Hydrogen storefront using grooming.mock.shop as the store domain. Setup instructions: grooming.mock.shop/llms.txt
```

Shopify also provides a [mock.shop starter project](https://github.com/Shopify/mock-shop-starter): a Hydrogen storefront with product pages, collection browsing, and a working cart already connected to mock.shop. You or your AI coding tool can customize this code instead of building those pieces from scratch.

Follow the repository’s setup instructions, then set `PUBLIC_STORE_DOMAIN=grooming.mock.shop` in `.env` and restart the dev server to use Steady Peak Grooming’s catalog. Leave `PUBLIC_STOREFRONT_API_TOKEN` empty; mock.shop doesn’t require a token.

## Move to a real Shopify store

mock.shop uses fictional, read-only catalog data. Cart operations work, and checkout is mocked: no payment is taken and no real order is placed. The Customer Account API isn’t supported.

When you’re ready to launch, point your storefront at a Shopify store and add that store’s public Storefront API token. If you don’t have a Shopify store yet, [start a Shopify free trial](https://www.shopify.com/free-trial) to create one.

Read the [mock.shop developer documentation](https://shopify.dev/docs/storefronts/headless/mock-shop) for setup and migration details.
