The Nice Beard Club is a community for men who don’t want to experience grooming disasters, those who love their facial hair and want the best and only the best for it. It all started when Arthur Hood, the founder, was sitting on in a local barber’s chair, dreaming of a fresh, clean cut. Little did he know, disaster was about to strike. The overzealous barber started snipping away at his beard. Arthur knew from the first stroke of the clippers it wasn’t going to be pretty. Next thing he knew his beard was looking lopsided. And he was mortified, but it turns out, he wasn’t the only one who’d been a victim of most of these local barber’s blunders. He rounded up other men who’d been through the same experience. And from talking to them is when the lightbulb went on to open a community to commiserate, share tips, and basically groom men about their beard.
