Holiday Shopping… It Begins

November 23, 2016 By //  by The Beardsgaards

Beardsgaard Barbers and River Peak Apothecary stock not only our house brand, but an entire world of fine men’s grooming products. And we never do sales. We’re barbers. It is what it is.

But this weekend is different.

Before the holiday season arrives in earnest, we have bundled some of our favorite products into covetable packs at great savings. Like an early present or something.

In shop, you can get all of the deals all day Friday and Saturday (because we’re closed Sundays and Mondays). On the webshoppe, each day of this holiday weekend will have a different set of deals, and we’re here to give you the low down on who you can knock off your holiday shopping list this weekend.

If you get all the way to the bottom of this post, you’ll find the code that will score you free shipping on everything (in the continental US).

All because we like you. A bunch. We promise not to make it weird.

We lie. We make no such promises.

How it Works

Follow the links below to the products/collections in the deal. Once you have all of the qualifying products in your cart, you will see the discounted price reflected on each product in the deal.

Black Friday

On Black Friday we’re featuring Brooklyn Grooming, and elegant line of handmade beard and men’s grooming products that we can’t get enough of, bundled with like-minded products that make the bundling even better. Better yet, save 15% on all of it.

Brooklyn Beard Oil Bundle ~ Save 15%

brooklyn-grooming-beard-oil-set-black-friday

Know a fella who likes to keep his beard and mustache neatly groomed? Does he like to keep things botanical and classy? This is his collection.

  • 1 Brooklyn Grooming Beard Oil
  • 1 Mustache Wax
  • 1 Beard Comb

Brooklyn Shaving Oil Bundle ~ Save 15%

brooklyn-grooming-shave-oil-set-black-friday

Is there a gent on your list that likes the idea of traditional wet shaving, but you’re loathe to spend a bunch of money on a nice razor for him you’re not sure he’ll ever use? Start with the wet part, and if he digs it, he can upgrade his razor for his birthday or something.

  • 1 Brooklyn Grooming Shaving Oil
  • 1 Shave Soap
  • 1 Shave Brush

Brooklyn Aftershave Bundle ~ Save 15%

brooklyn-grooming-aftershave-set-black-friday

This is the set for the shave aficionado who appreciates fine things, built around this gorgeous witch hazel/holy wood blend aftershave. The best thing about this bundle is that it allows for the fact that the giftee might have a bit of hardware already in his shave kit.

  • 1 Brooklyn Grooming Aftershave
  • 1 Shave Gear
  • 1 Shaving Oil

Small Business Saturday

Beardsgaard is a small business, but so is our house-made grooming line, River Peak Apothecary (as in, we literally make it ourselves. By hand.) So for Small Business Saturday, we’re putting together two bundles that save you 20%, or in one case, score a whole bottle of beard oil for free.

River Peak Magic Pack ~ Save 20%

rpa-full-line-sq

If you have a heavily bearded nature and/or fantasy enthusiast in your life, this is the collection for him. Because our line is so structured around the seasons, if you know his favorite, you’re sure to have a winner of a gift here.

  • 1 Beard Oil
  • 1 Lip Butter
  • 1 Deepwell Beard Butter

A Year of Beard Oils ~ 4 Seasons + 1 Free

product-content-beard-oils-river-peak-apothecary-beard-oil-set-003

For the abovementioned type of fella, this is the ultimate beard oil collection, moving through the seasons and a literal written fantasy world while turning beastly beards into soft and pettable face creatures.

  • Fjordmist
  • Dragonsea
  • Hearthstone
  • Frostwood
  • Spiritbrook

Small Business Sunday

Small business Sunday isn’t actually a thing, and the shop isn’t even open (this deal is available in shop on Friday and Saturday), but the webshoppe is!

We’re packaging our co-branded Epic Beard Trilogy sets with fantasy-inspired products from the River Peak Apothecary line to give you all of the bearded nerdery from two local companies of bearded nerds.

Viking Pack ~ Free Mustache Wax & Lip Butter

20150921-009-Odin IRL Shoot-Batavia Riverwalk

Odin is truly full-diesel Viking. Don’t say we didn’t warn you. But its manly leathers and seaweeds are softened and tamed by the spring rains and buds of Fjordmist. An apricot and bergamot-heavy lip butter brings the whole thing together. If you have a man on your list who yearns to be Ragnar Lothbrok, this is his collection.

  • 1 Beardsgaard by Camelot Odin Beard Oil
  • 1 Beardsgaard by Camelot Odin Beard Balm
  • 1 Beardsgaard by Camelot Odin Mustache Wax
  • 1 River Peak Apothecary Fjordmist Beard Oil
  • 1 River Peak Apothecary Stone Tea Lip Butter

Wizard Pack ~ Free Mustache Wax & Lip Butter

20151019-027-Gandalf IRL-Beau Cheval Farm

Gandalf is deep, subtle and complex, like all proper wizards. Spiritbrook is light, contemplative and herbal, as is all good pipe weed. And to keep lips soft, something simple and flavored only by the natural honey of the beeswax. Anyone who appreciates the smell of old books and old forests will adore this collection.

  • 1 Beardsgaard by Camelot Gandalf Beard Oil
  • 1 Beardsgaard by Camelot Gandalf Beard Balm
  • 1 Beardsgaard by Camelot Gandalf Mustache Wax
  • 1 River Peak Apothecary Spiritbrook Beard Oil
  • 1 River Peak Apothecary Ore Lip Butter

Santa Pack ~ Free Mustache Wax & Lip Butter

No need to play coy. This collection is made for literal Santas, or anyone who wants to smell exactly what the season is supposed to smell like.

  • 1 Beardsgaard by Camelot Claus Beard Oil
  • 1 Beardsgaard by Camelot Claus Beard Balm
  • 1 Beardsgaard by Camelot Claus Mustache Wax
  • 1 River Peak Apothecary Frostwood Beard Oil
  • 1 River Peak Apothecary Bronzed Apple Lip Butter

Cyber Monday

Beardsgaard was a huge fan of Reuzel far before one of us got to call the Scumbags of Rotterdam “boss.” We also like T-shirts, especially these limited-edition ones made by local artists. So we made some bundles for your favorite greaser scumbags.

Reuzel Marauders Pack ~ Save $12

reuzel-holiday-trio-gloomworld

This collection is for the kind of guy who likes to keep a clean and simple beard, and keep it cleaned up around the edges – hence the aftershave. Because of the general theme of bloodletting and pirates, we thought Gudlaugr Thorgils the Viking Octobarber (yes we named him) by local artist Gloomworld would go nicely with that.

  • 1 Viking Octobarber T-Shirt
  • 1 Viking Octobarber Sticker
  • 1 Reuzel Beard Balm
  • 1 Reuzel Beard Foam
  • 1 Reuzel Aftershave

Reuzel Hard Up Pack ~ Save $12

reuzel-holiday-trio-et-tu-bertus

For bloody brutally tough hair, the strong hold duo gets the damn job done. We built this pack for the true greaser that goes hard, but at some point needs to get that goo out of his hair again. Because this pack is for the die hards, we thought it best to include the Et Tu Bertus shirt (almost sold out now!) designed by superfan and Shop Artist Brian Busch.

  • 1 Et Tu Bertus T-Shirt
  • 1 Et Tu Bertus Sticker
  • 1 Reuzel Blue Strong Hold Water-Based Pomade
  • 1 Reuzel Pink Strong Hold Oil-Based Pomade
  • 1 Reuzel Scrub Shampoo

Reuzel Greaser Pack ~ Save $12

reuzel-holiday-trio-greasy-pig

Have a greaser-in-training who’s just getting into the good stuff? This is about as classic barbershop as you get, with pomades, tonics, and the Greasy Pig shirt from Roz Anomaly to let the world know your intentions. Also, this looks Christmasey as hell.

  • 1 Greasy Pig T-Shirt
  • 1 Greasy Pig Sticker
  • 1 Reuzel Red Water-Based Pomade
  • 1 Reuzel Green Oil-Based Pomade
  • 1 Reuzel Hair Tonic

The Secret Code

All orders placed Friday through Monday will ship on Tuesday, 11/29, so if you want to nab multiple deals, they will all ship at once. On that note, use the code BYREINDEER to score free shipping 11/24 through 11/28.

Mark your calendars, nerds!

About The Beardsgaards

The Beardsgaards are a pair of mom-and-pop barber nerds with a shared obsession with perfection. We built this old school barbershop to feel like home to everyone who enters beneath the Elvish script above our door. If we and the Gaardian army can give you a better handle on your grooming routine, all the better.

We were deeply saddened by the news of Christopher We were deeply saddened by the news of Christopher Tolkien passing a year ago, and still are to this day. Our love of his father and Lord of the Rings is ever present here at Beardsgaard. So tonight we, and hopefully the rest of you, will take a moment to remember one of the greatest authors of all time, his son, and the impact the Tolkien family has had on our lives. 
“The world is indeed full of peril, and in it there are many dark places; but still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater.”
-J.R.R. Tolkien
While we appreciate all the self sufficient kids t While we appreciate all the self sufficient kids that come into the shop, we still need an adult with them to sign our liability waiver. We know it’s a bit of a pain but it’s really to appease Phydeoux the shop dragon. He has a hunger for children and waivers, and we’d rather feed him waivers.

Well hello to those with wild beards who heard whi Well hello to those with wild beards who heard whispers of moving out of Tier 3 Mitigation! Please pause, we're not there yet. 

This does not apply to the entire state of Illinois, only certain regions. As of now, we are still in Tier 3. We will announce when we have moved to Tier 2 on all of our social media channels as well as our email list, so sit tight until then!

Because knowledge is power, you also can go to http://dph.illinois.gov/regionmetrics?regionID=8 at any time and look at Region 8, which contains Kane County. As of this posting, we are not meeting the metric on hospital bed availability. 

We promise, we want to get everything under your mask looking and feeling great, but we cannot do that until it's safe. Thank you for understanding, and please keep an eye out here, on Instagram or sign up for our email list at the bottom of www.beardsgaardbarbers.com to get updates.
And you? Do you like the barber shop? We like you. And you? Do you like the barber shop? We like you.
We may specialize in short, traditionally masculin We may specialize in short, traditionally masculine haircuts, but Beardsgaard has always been a place for everyone; girls, guys, gays, theys - all identities and orientations find acceptance and a barbershop home here. If, however, you are looking for the luscious salon locks that are far less in our barberly skill set, we are the lucky next door neighbors of the incredible @coasthairsalon
Between the two of us, we have heads of every sort covered in spectacular hair, and positive vibes.
While we would love to see more than half of your While we would love to see more than half of your faces, until Illinois is out of Tier 3 we are just not allowed to do any face services. That means all beard trims and face shaves are not a thing for the foreseeable future. We know that’s a bummer for most of you but think of how epic and wizardry your beards will be once we can do trims!
For beard updates we will be posting across social media and sending an email out to those of you that are on the email list as soon as we know anything. Hang tight Gaardians, your face gardens will be pruned again some day.
When this year started, we eternal optimists could When this year started, we eternal optimists couldn’t have imagined what dragons were coming. With the support of this amazing community, this little barbershop made it through lockdown, occupancy restrictions, six flipping months of construction including losing our whole front entrance for months, are still in the middle of not being able to perform our signature services, but we’re all starting to see light on the other side. We don’t know what this next year will hold, but we believe this shop and this community will keep on adapting and end up stronger for it. We just hope, so hard, that the dogs will be able to return in 2021. In the meantime, we have the dragon. And all of you.
Over the years here, no one has held quite as many Over the years here, no one has held quite as many positions at Beardsgaard as Joey. As (at the time girlfriend, now wife) Amanda worked here, Joey was keen to fill in on desk when a shopkeep got sick, and he didn’t even work here yet. Nor did he yet when he let us tie him to a tree during the making of a dumb movie. 

Eventually, he came to be a Shopkeep at Beardsgaard before, like Tyler, following his wife into the blade game and going to barber school, turning out to be really good at it. He progressed from intern to apprentice to a knighting to staff barber of Beardsgaard to beard model for our sibling shop’s most popular product, Deepwell. 

And now, as if the fondest wish for any Gaardian, business ownership, taking over for Amanda as the head chair of Fox & Stone Barbers in St Charles while she is off wrangling puppies for a living in the vet world. 

We wish him endless luck and happiness in his next steps, but we won’t miss him too much. As the dad of our dearly departed Mia, and the wiggly love sausage Mabel, he has agreed that Mabel should still work at Beardsgaard once we can have shop dogs again because she is so good at her job and misses all of you. So we’ll see him then! Huzzah!

Today is his last day, be sure to give him your love/hardcore trolling, whatever your relationship with him is. As you know, he’s a barber who can do both.
