About the Founder

The story behind how Australia's first beard grooming and care products company came to be. Founder Luke "the bearded chap" Swenson has a story to tell.

The Bearded Chap has always had facial hair since he came out of his mother’s womb in 1986. Over the years he has grown every style of beard from clean-shaven baby face to a full-grown beard and even an odd moustache. However, The Bearded Chap had the time-old problem that most men have when growing a beard. That crazy beard itch you get, after a week without shaving and beardruff (Dandruff of the face). 

The Bearded Chap tried experimenting with all types of lotions and potions to try and stop the dreaded itch and beardruff. Most left his beard feeling greasy and smelling like the freshly scented roses that you'd smell in a toilet spray. He decided there had to be something better to tame his wild beard. 

The result; Australia’s first, world-class, premium Beard Oil. With strict criteria in mind, The Bearded Chap had to ensure that his Beard Oil moisturized the skin whether he had light to heavy stubble or a glorious full beard, and smell great so his lady friends didn’t complain.

After months of research, sitting at the local bar, testing 32 different recipes on bearded men, working with skin & hair care experts and getting the approval on the intoxicating scent from the ladies, The Bearded Chap came up with the perfect formula for the Original Beard Oil.

Which started with a beard oil is now a full range of beard, hair and body care products.

What is the Difference between pomade & clay?

There are many variables to consider when you are choosing which hair product to use in your hair. What look are you going for? Is your hair long and straight or short and curly? Do I want the classic wet/shine look or a natural matte look? Choosing the right product for the right effect is super important.
It really comes down to your personal style or the occasion you're styling your hair for. The matte, natural look is the most popular trend now and out of pomade and matte clay, Matte Clay is probably the most versatile of the two whether you’re at the office or out and about on the town.
