Owner / Senior Staff Barber

Various Website Buttons_Booking ButtonABOUT: Born in South Dakota and raised in Mt. Prospect, Tyler is one-half of the married pair of founders, but has long been a jack of all physical trades – baker, bartender, and now barber. As long as he gets to work with his hands and talk to people all day, he is a happy camper. In the tiny bit of free time he has, he is introducing Shop Kid to all of the Marvel properties in proper order, playing guitar, and dragging home furniture from all over town like lost puppies.

FAVORITE THINGS: Movies, sci-fi, horror, romantic shit (WHAT), Vikings, classic rock, tea, tools, baked goods, comic books, cuddly animals, lunch, thunderstorms, organization, spicy food, bacon, trees, historical trivia, grilling, geek show marathons, delicious beers.

FANDOMS: Star Wars, Battlestar, Firefly, Alien, Predator, Dune, Doctor Who, Star Trek, Marvel, DC, Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, Supernatural, Zelda, Tolkien, and pretty much the whole of the sci-fi-verse.



Beardsmith’s Portfolio

SPECIALTIES: Tyler is a methodical yet jovial beard, working steadily about your head while keeping the good barbershop conversation flowing. Before you know it, you’re looking fantastic and getting on with your day. While he can handle absolutely any head that hits his chair, he takes particular glee in flat tops, all of the face stuff, and hairstyles that make you look like you were ripped out of a different era.

New pins from @thesearethings offer an aesthetic t New pins from @thesearethings offer an aesthetic that says “Kinda spooky, kinda sarcastic.” which is definitely a vibe Shopkeep Lucky Eye imbues. She’s already picked up a pin and is sporting it on her favorite jacket, can you guess which one she went with?
With several recent, very public examples of the c With several recent, very public examples of the continuation of police brutality in America, it's hard not to feel helpless. And frustrated. And tired. But just like actively being anti-racist isn't an option, neither is taking a break. There are countless grassroots organizations that are doing the difficult work of changing legislation, hearts and minds every day. Even when the big stories have faded, and the cameras have left. They don't stop when they're tired, because it's not an option. So what can you do?

First: donate to those tireless organizations that benefit people of color and marginalized individuals.
Second: outwardly show your solidarity.  Did our solidarity with Black Lives Matter lead to us losing clients, and aggression towards us as a business? Yes. Do we care about that? No. Because for every loud person that yelled at us for our BLM fist and pride flag in the window, there were people that saw it as a head nod that said, "We see you. We're with you."

People passed our shop and felt safe, and that feeling of home and safety is why Beardsgaard is the shop that it is. We will continue to show solidarity because at the end of the day, everyone deserves to have basic human rights. People deserve to be able to sleep in their own bed, walk down the street with a sandwich, talk on the phone to their mom, unlock their own front door, hold a bag of skittles, sit on a couch and eat ice cream… 

So while our Wear It For Good section has grown in the past year, all of our designs are still up and all the profits being donated to different charities and organizations. 

Donate and show your solidarity with our Wear It For Good section of our #webshoppe {Link in Bio}.

All of our covid protocols are updated on our website so please read those before you book. We don’t like having to turn people away but it is necessary to ensure the safety of our staff and other clients.
When it comes to the potential of new guidelines being implemented we will post on social media as soon as we know what they are and they have been confirmed for our region. Fingers crossed that this spike is temporary and we’ll be back to getting those numbers down for summer!
