About Us

---

I took my love for the art of cutting hair to college as a way to make extra money, sort of like a part time job. I learned customer service by simply satisfying my friends/colleagues and giving them what they wanted.

I graduated from barber school and started working as a master barber/independent contractor. I began practicing at Precise barber salon, where I worked for 2 years, and then transitioned to All Sports barbershop, where I worked for 15 years. I was able to  hone my razor, scissor, and clipper skills over time.

After honing my barbering skills and wanting to go to the next level in the industry, I worked as a shop manager for 18 months at Trimmers barber & style shop. I learned day-to-day operations and financial management directly from the owner.

Working at Trimmers taught me day-to-day operations and financial management. After that, I planned and executed the successful start up of T-randZ Barbershop. I was finally rewarded for 18 years of hard work. I operated my own business for 7 years.

After 4 years of profit gains, I was forced to temporarily close the doors on my business due to the pandemic. During this 4 month lockdown, I started an in-home barber service to accommodate my customers.

After two years of struggling to stay afloat due to financial worries and uncertainty caused by the pandemic, I made a business decision to close the doors on T-randZ barbershop permanently. I gained employment at Gould’s as a service provider/barber.

I took this time to reorganize my business plan. After careful planning and strategizing, I had an AHA! moment. I leveraged the passing of a 2018 Tennessee General Assembly bill, which now allow all Tennesseans the right to enjoy concierge barber and beauty services across Tennessee. I created an on-demand, on-line, in-home barber service as a result of the passing of the new bill.

After the pandemic caused so much disruption in today’s economic landscape, my wife and I were forced to reorganize. We created a marital partnership and came up with “The Hair & Beard Station “

We operate within a niche market targeting all types of hair.

Beyond Beards was established in 2025 as way for us to give back to the community that supports our business. We are neighbors to the city jail and the homeless mission. We believe a haircut can change someone’s day no matter how much they can or cannot pay.
