A Very Beardsgaard Gift Guide

By

Ho, Gaardians!

10 more days until Christmas, which leaves 8 more days to pick up your gifts in person at Beardsgaard and only 6 more days (well, 5 and some early morning hours) to order online on our webshoppe, River Peak Apothecary. Ohe noes!

Don’t worry, there’s still time, AND we even put together some handy collections of gift ideas, AND staff pick collections from each of your barbers.

Do you have one of these types in your life?
  • The guy you want to impress but don’t actually know anything about
  • The hardcore Gaardian
  • The guy for whom the gift is also a firm nudge to step up his grooming game
Or maybe you need…
  • Stocking stuffers!
  • All the things!
  • You have no idea, but the giftee in question is a loyal client of a specific barber here!

We have you covered, friends. Read on.

Fancy Stuff

Impress Wishlist Updated

Have a boss, father-in-law, Don Draper or otherwise mysterious fellow on your list that leaves you completely stumped on what to get him?

We dunno man, but here’s all the fancy, classy stuff that will impress the pants off anybody. You really can’t go wrong here.

Beardsgaard Stuff

Gaardian Wishlist

Batavia, Illinois is ground zero for rabid, slavering fans of Beardsgaard, but these dear, furry friends populate lands far beyond our borders.

If you have a Gaardian in your life and on your gift list, we made their wishlist handy for ya right here. Even if he isn’t quite sure what holiday it’s for.

Entry-Level Stuff

Hapless Wishlist

Hello ladies…or gentlemen, but it’s going to be mostly ladies hitting this page, we’re assuming. We all have a dood in our lives who needs a little help.

Whether he doesn’t have any idea that men’s products outside of the drugstore exist, he has been using all of your grooming products, or he just doesn’t bother at all, we have an entire collection of items that will give your guy just the wink wink nudge nudge he needs to take his grooming game up a notch.

Stocking Stuffers

All the. Small things

Our guide for stocking stuffers: small, nothing over $20 (except the gift certificates), no unprotected glass or anything otherwise breakable or susceptible to damage.

We mean, you’re shoving a bunch of stuff in a foot-shaped sack. Gotta be pragmatic. Otherwise, go nuts.

Everything

Staff Picks

Beardsmith is a bald and bearded dude, so while as a professional he loves our shave and hair products, he doesn’t personally have a lot of use for them. His picks include all of the waxes and goos with which he regularly slathers himself.
Blademaiden’s picks include a selection of her favorite products that she uses all the time (being a short-haired human), some she made herself or created with other fine folks, and one that she uses as a perfume because it smells like Middle Earth.
Zodiac can’t grow much facial hair, but something in his Mexican/Irish blood gives him a glorious mane of head hair. His picks include sharp things, pomades, and some chin fuzz softeners that he buys and takes home with his own money.

If all that doesn’t help you find a gift to pamper any man on your gift list with a beard and/or hair and/or skin (if you add in the merchandise items, you don’t even need that…or to be a man…*flips table*), we don’t know how else to help you.

Let’s get festive, doods!
