Great experience as always. Sean is excellent at his craft. Everyone you encounter is on top of their game! Will continue to recommend to anyone looking for a solid barbershop! The product selection they have available is always a nice bonus!!

This place is a breeding ground for top shelf talent and professionalism. All backed by fantastic customer service.My recent visit they were able to work something out with me to allow my friend to utilize some of my appointment window!We greatly appreciated it, as understandably things get booked up weeks ahead of time.I had called the day before, however, so I’m absolutely not saying to expect them to bend over backwards or anything.I had to help my bud with a ride somewhere after my appointment, he happened to need a haircut, so I got my beard done only and let him get his haircut.I’ve visited approximately 5-10 times and I confidently tell anyone I will never go elsewhere. I dread the day I would need to move and be unable to go there.

This is my favorite barbershop ever. Basically ruined me for any other shop! The owners and staff are amazing! The hair cuts are out of this world!And the best part is when you go in you are like transported to a different world! So many things to explore. There is lore, trading cards, amazing products made by them and others!I highly recommend you go and get an killer hair cut!

This is a great place with a wonderful atmosphere and a group of dedicated professionals who offer a great service. I was a first-timer and I enjoyed my beard fixing from Kate I was very impressed with. I would feel comfortable recommending this location to anyone.

I’ve been going to Beardsgaard for the last 5 years and it is by far the best barbershop I’ve ever been to. Once you form a relationship with your barber it’s like going to meet and old friend every month and you can talk about anything without judgement. They’ve made the scheduling process extremely simple and the owner’s even have their own line of products that are sold throughout the world.

Probably the best haircut place I’ve been too. I’ve tried so many places and this is the only place that does exactly what you ask them to do to your hair. Everyone there is experienced and I’d highly recommend this. The haircut is a bit more expensive than other places but it’s no rip-off.

You ever walk into a place and instantly youre like yeah, these are my people? Thats Beardsgaard. This place is full of cool people and good vides. And Sean took my gnarly apocalyptic hair and overgrown hedge maze of a beard and worked magic and turned them into exactly what Id imagined with my minimal statements of what I was going for. I look really dang good right now and its thanks to Sean. I am delighted to have found my new regular barber and shop, and you will too if you go here.

Very relaxed yet professional barber shop. Top tier quality. I have not seen a bad cut or beard trim leave this place. If you want a top notch cut, come here. Lauren and Lola are great. Appointments are best, but they do have a walk-in option. I would make an appointment on their website, and then don’t be late, cuz they are very good at time management.

Tyler and His Staff are shaving it up and clipping it down in a modern take on an old concept. Live Like a Viking and storm the place for your next cut.

I ALWAYS get my hair cut here.Ive been with about 4 different barbers here myself and each one did an exceptional job with such skill and precision.They all really know their stuff and are quite versatileI love their products. My wife wasnt a big fan of the stuff I used to buy from stores but she found this place through the grape vine and fell in love with the new scents from their products after just one use.I was so happy with their service I had my wedding groomsmen get their cuts here. My mom said we never looked better haha!Seriously, this I place rocks and their in-house beard products are top of the line.I hope this place is open forever so I can take my kids here one day.

Great and friendly place. The conversation with the staff is something you will find in common. They joke with you and make you feel at home. The hair cut is fast and as great. I was looking for a place that shaves as well, you will get a great shave here. There is nothing wrong with this place at all. They have a section for your kids to play. But, always a but. Hahaha. The pricing was a little too high as what I paid for both a haircut and straight shave.Try it out, believe me, you wont be disappointed at all. Thank you for the haircut and shave, it was a great experience.

Great experience! First time in and first time growing out my beard. Kate was outstanding! Did not know what to expect and I did not give much guidance to her but man did she deliver! If you are still reading this you should book an appointment!110% approved by my wife. She is more impressed than I am.

Listen, when I tell you that they know what they’re doing, it’s no joke. I had an appointment at 3pm, they were prompt. I came in there with no clue what I wanted done all I knew was I needed a haircut and a beard trim. As any man with a beard knows, it’s gut wrenching, the thought of letting someone else touch your beard. Joey was meticulous and professional, the conversation and the establishment was GREAT! I HIGHLY recommend this place to all my bearded buddies! Thanks again Joey

Great experience for a fair price. First time in and wasn’t sure exactly what I wanted but walked out with a great cut from Tyler. Nice place, everyone is professional and seems very organized. Will definitely be coming back.

The Barbers are nice but appointments can be cancelled by the shop with no notice and tbh, you can get the same haircut for half price most places. When you want to know why your haircut cost $50, look at the glass dragon and you will have your answer

When you have a beard, you must go here. My hubby has tried others, but just not the same. Beardsgaards environment is amazing and the skill if the barbers is the best.

Really enjoy the atmosphere here. The people are friendly, the barbers are top-notch, and the pricing is reasonable. No wonder its always packed here. The advance appointments fill up extremely quickly, but they do have a barber available for same day appointments (they also fill up quickly).

Great haircut, better atmosphere. If youre a little nerdy, a little hipster, or a little cool in general, this is the place for you!

Review №32

I was not sure what to even ask for with the longer hair and beard I grew out during the pandemic. They offer great advice at no extra charge. Im impressed with the instructions given to me to take care of facial hair. Im impressed with the website. I look forward to the day when barbers can use a straight razor again when this pandemic is over. I could not afford to get a regular haircut and beard trim at the current prices when other Mom and Pop shops are less than half their cost. However, if I needed to spruce up for a wedding this is the place I would go. You definitely get what you pay for and I was not disappointed.

I wish there was more stars to give this establishment. I went there today for haircut and beard work. Sean was my barber and he knocked it out of the park. The owner Tyler was great and friendly as well as a gentlemen named Pete. When you think of the perfect shop this was it for me. I will definitely be back. Thank you gentlemen

Their policies during this COVID-19 period were simple and straightforward. It was no hassle and straight to the point. Clearly cleanliness has continued to be of the highest. It is these things and quality for which I drive almost an hour just to be taken care of.

Keep in mind this barbershop main focus is beards.This barbershop is very famous and it’s better to make an appoiment with time so you can get attended.You can get a haircut but keep in mind is kinda expensive you can get the same haircut for 15 in other places here it’s almost double plus tip.Not bashing the place I got a few haircuts here and they were good.

Review №45

The friendliest group of nerds that are nothing less than HAIR PROFESSIONALS. My beard is ranked nationally, and I wont let anyone aside a barber from Beardsgaard do anything to it. Their walk-ins make it super handy to get service with my busy schedule, and every barber does a great job, Ive gotten better cuts from an apprentice than from my old barber that was in practice for 20 years. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

You can never go wrong with Beardsgaard. Talented barbers, amazing space, and a super good selection of beard and hair products, some produced in the Apothecary next door. I never hesitate a referral to Beardsgaard Barbers, there is no doubt they are at the top of their game and loving it.

Review №57

I have had two haircuts there thus far. Pretty decent cuts. I dont have to tell them too much of what I want. But I work and drove over an hour to get there, got there an hour before closing and they had no more openings. The guy at reception couldnt care less that i fought traffic for an hour. NEVER going there again. Not worth the effort. They are too good for a loyal customer. Not anymore. No more recommendations from me. How do they expect to expand their customer base? Smugness and indifference doesnt sell.

Review №58

This is the place for you!!! All beards are treated equal here....you can get full service hair, beard, etc. You will have to make an appointment, (as one should). But they are very often on time, and schedule accurately. A very nice choice from a barber shop option of NEXT ?.... Awesome folks there, and great products specializing in beard control. Pay attention to public parking signs, things are changing down town Batavia, Il.

Review №61

I drive 40 minutes to get my beard trimmed and my haircut from here. No other place around does it as well. Everyone of thier barbers are awesome. Other places you pay for a beard trim and they seem to just barely go over it or have any idea what they are doing. Beardsgaard on the other hand makes sure you leave with a perfect cut. They listen to what you want and are masters of their craft.

Best place to get a haircut and/or a beard trim. Place is awesome to look at and be in and all the barbers are highly skilled and very friendly. Make sure to make an appointment a couple weeks ahead of time. Very busy place. They accept walk-ins on certain days, if youre lucky. Check the website to be sure before going.

Great barbers in a really cool place. Great for all guys, but they do female styles. These barbers do a great job on beards. Longer beards are hard to trim and control, and all these barbers understand facial hair and know exactly how to take care of it, and make it look its best. They all have great signature hair styling too. Check out their website. I know you will like this place!

Review №68

Great service, great ambience, convenient booking system. I also have to say that they REALLY know what theyre doing. I showed up for my appointment. I got a great haircut, beard fixing, line up and talked extensive D&D nerdery with Tyler while he worked. 20 minutes later, MAYBE, I was out the door with a bottle of beard oil. Professional, good speed, friendly people. Only has one dog though. Could use more dogs.

5/5 beard trim from Tyler.I was super anxious coming here for the first time, not knowing what to expect. Once I arrived I was happy to see it was super chill. Everyone was really friendly, the place wasnt overcrowded & crazy (despite what you might think due to trying to schedule).Tyler was great. Nice and mellow dude with an expert hand. He really transformed my beard into something I cant stop looking in the mirror at. Im super proud of my beard and the trim I got and will definitely be taking the time to come back here in the future.

Awesome. I mean these guys helped me tame the monster. You walk in and realize they are the real deal. Popular is an understatement. Download the app they recommend for online appointments and find a time that works. I recommend the beard oil and paste. Fair prices but remember they are barbers you need to tip.

Review №76

It is my first time growing a full long beard, and I have left it alone for months. I decided it was time to get some professional help with the first trim. I called Beardsgaard Barbers up and was surprised that they could get me in about 30 minutes later as a walk-in. Friendly staff and cool atmosphere. I saw Scott who seems to be their guy for walk-ins. I briefly described what I was looking for with the hair cut, and that I was looking for advise on styles and also upkeep tips for my first beard. Scott asked questions to hone in on my tastes as well as grooming style. We talked through what would look good on me and fit my life style, then Scott got to work. As he went he took extra time to explain some of the grooming nuances for the beard and things I could do at home to trim, straighten my curly beard hair, keep it soft & manageable, etc. Scott also explained a few of the products he was using and why, but their was no push trying to sell me something. Scott did a great job with the hair cut and the beard trim, and I learned a lot from his expert tips. I ended up getting their own line of beard butter as it seemed it was quicker & easier to use than some of the beard balms I had been using, while also making it soft and manageable. All told, very glad I decided to check out Beardsgaard!!! Will definitely be going back!!!

Fantastic old-school barbershop. No coloring or overly fancy stuff, just great haircuts and shaves. As the name suggests, they specialize in beards of all kinds and have a wide selection of care products, both self-made and commercial.They do have walk-ins, but get there early because the list fills up fast. Id recommend scheduling your appointment well in advance. Its worth it.

I recently moved and needed a new place to get my hair cut. After putting it off for several months, I made an appointment here with Lauren for a haircut and beard trim. I told her that I wanted to keep my hair a little longer but I needed it to look professional. I also wanted something that I wouldnt need to style. I ended up with the best haircut Ive ever had and a great looking beard! Thank you Lauren for my new amazing hairstyle!

They are a very busy place, because they do a really good job. They cut my boys hair, and it looks really, really good! Everyone that works there is friendly with a good sense of humor, and that makes the place have a really cool atmosphere. There is a place for the kids to keep occupied and have fun while a dad can take care of his hair biz, too.

Coolest people, best homemade beard oils and products, and beard stylists/staff. Great products and cuts for the bearded, and even for those of us with hair only on our heads. This isnt just a barber shop...its like Cheers where everybody knows your name. And theyre always glad you came. You can expect amazing people, decor and most likely some great storytelling from Tyler, the owner, along with his wife Natalie. Check out their website...Natalies photography is incredible and youll find yourself in a whole new realm of awesome. Go for the beard stuff, but stay for the lounge area, culture, conversation and the adorable dog. Thats really just the beginning. Its an experience in itself. Go now you must!

Cool barber shop in batavia. Wasnt sure what to except when making an appointment. I cant grow a beard well, so I thought Id be out of place. But when I walked in it was very warm and friendly.

Best place to get a haircut. My grandpa and I have been going there for over a year, and Ive never gotten a bad haircut. Amanda and Nick are extremely talented and I would definitely recommend you pick one of the two. Great environment, have a kids room, and even sometimes a dog. Ive been to the place across the street, but its not as good as beardsgaard.
