Continue ShoppingBeardsgaard Needs a Barber!
Beardsgaard has been a destination barbershop here in the Shire of the Middle West since 2014, and has been mostly booked out as far as the books go since then. We had been full staffed for quite some time, but for the first time in years, one of our barbers is off to pursue their next big dreams, and their chair needs someone special to make it their home. BEARDSGAARD IS HIRING!
Please note that while plenty of cosmetologists can cut the classics just like barbers, if you are a cosmetologist, you must additionally hold a valid Illinois barber's license to cut at Beardsgaard, as the majority of our services require razor work beyond the neck.
