Legendary Captain Fawcett founder Richie Finney will be on hand for the pre-launch signing of their new book, “The Gentleman’s Guide to Grooming: The Quintessential Handbook for the Modern Man” on Wednesday, October 4th from 7-9 PM. There will also be competitions and prizes aplenty. Join us.
October 4th is going to be an evening of fun and delights, but there will also be a rousing competition. Two, in fact!
Beardsgaard is known for the legendary beards and mustaches we get the pleasure of attending, and Captain Fawcett is known for keeping them looking tip-top and smelling like tales of far flung adventures. When you bring the founders of both together at the nerdiest barbershop this side of Midgard, something like a beard (and mustache) competition is bound to happen.
Keep reading for all the finer points of the happenings, as well as what the winners will be taking home, and see the full event post here.
Best Beard
Best beard does not necessarily mean the biggest! Points will be awarded in many categories – Length, Fullness, Nifty Details (Game of Thrones-style grey streaks, interesting waves, whathaveyou), Styling, and more. If you have good beard, you may be the fella taking home the prize.
