Welcome Home, Nerds
The folks on YouTube have been asking for more haircut videos, and that gets tough when you’re open 6 days a week. There’s Sunday, but that’s the day everything ELSE gets scheduled into. So when Blademaiden realized she had one of her favorite heads in the chair, we did a livestream!
It was a bit impromptu, forgive the sound quality. We’ll get better at this “live” thing.

Running two businesses, it is rare that the Beardsgaards get to actually GO anywhere. And they still didn’t.
This time it was just Blademaiden off on her first long-distance Scumbassador training run to southern Illinois, where there are lots of large, unpeopled stretches. And Shawnee National Forest. And Garden of the Gods. And a cabin in the woods. By herself. For two days. Come along on a very dorky adventure. There’s a hot tub.
And a whole video of the expedition at the bottom of this post. Read on!

*Walken Wednesdays are no more as of November 2016, because we now have daily walk-ins!
We’re going to be closed this upcoming Walken Wednesday (9/14) for a pretty exciting reason. The entire crew will be taking part in a hands-on cutting class as part of the Reuzel Quest for Clipper Carnage tour.
Blademaiden recently got to partake in 5 days of training with the Reuzel and Schorem crew as part of her training to become one of the first Scumbassadors, and is beyond thrilled to drag the entire Beardsgaard team to learn from Leen and Bertus themselves at this training.
There will be hugs.

As a Scumbassador-led barbershop, Beardsgaard is serious about education.
Leen and Bertus of Schorem Haarsnijder En Barbier and Reuzel Pomade are going to be making the rounds in the states in September putting on the Quest for Clipper Carnage educational tour, and you had better believe we’re going to be there.
They will be spending two days spreading the lard’s gospel in Chicago, September 13th and 14th, and we’re going to be there both days. The 13th is an evening demo, but for the 14th, we’re going to need some heads, because your barbers are going to be cutting and learning from the masters at the same time.
If you want a free haircut, overseen by some of the best damn barbers in the world, we need you – or four of you, as the case may be. But there are some serious criteria to fulfill.

Hey, remember a while back when we mentioned that Blademaiden was going to be out of the shop for training? Yep, so that totally happened, and it was fucking epic.
And as far as the population of Chicago now knows (in certain pockets), this group of trainees were not a bunch of hopeful Reuzel Pomade educators, they were a band that happened to be called the #Scumbassadors.
They also sorta stole a limo. Sorta. You’re really going to need to keep reading, because there’s a sizable photo gallery…

Somehow we have never gotten around to producing a full-on haircut and/or beard demo on film. But when the scumbags of Schorem and Reuzel put out a call for potential Scumbassador educators, we knew the time had come.
Let us present: an Executive Contour haircut and huge fucking beard. There may also be dragons. {Update: totally made it. Say hello to one of the first Reuzel Scumbassadors}
