Meet the psychos behind the super natural grooming products you know and love.

  • Lori

    Our soap mistress and general product maker, as well as customer liaison. If you've talked to us, you were probably talking to her.

  • Austin

    The creative mind behind the monsters. Austin designs our products, formulates new ones, and handles this site. Married to Lori.

  • Teresa

    Austin's mom has business savvy, and Austin and Lori...not so much. That's why she handles buying, wholesale stuff, and a thing she calls procurement (it's all business voodoo).

Our Philosophy

  • Naturally Derived Ingredients

    We don't have a problem with synthetic ingredients. Science is awesome! But we feel like, if it can be made with natural ingredients, then why not?

  • Craft First

    We don't spend a lot of time or money on advertising. Our approach is to focus on craftsmanship, and let the quality of our products do the talking. It's not the most modern way to do business, but we're old fashioned, and we find that it works for us.

  • Wallet-Friendly Prices

    As millenials, we have started to expect economic recessions. We keep our prices as low as we can - which is usually much lower than other brands.

  • The MONSTER Family

    It's going to sound cheesey, but we see ourselves and our customers as part of one big community. We offer the respect and care you deserve to each order and every interaction.

  • We're All Freaks

    When we first entered the beard industry, we noticed an unsettling call for conformity. There was a lot of "here's what a man looks like; we can make you look like that!" We say a man looks like whatever the f*** a man wants to look like. We want to give you the tools to achieve your personalized look.

Our History

  • 2014

    Austin starts using beard oil, and one day thinks to check the ingredients. It's olive oil and fragrance. And it's not very good. After some experimenting, he creates a much better oil that he sells at local markets and on Etsy. There are five initial scents: Bigfoot, Ghostly Pirate, Vampire Hunter, Wolfman, and Zombie Killer. They begin selling immediately, and the company - called Beard Monster initially - is born.

  • 2015

    Beard Monster is already paying the bills for what had very recently been a struggling working class family. New products are added - Beard Balm, Beard Wash, and Mustache Wax. Two new fragrances are also added - Death's Garden and Tropical Pandemonium (the Reaper and the Witch Doctor today, respectively). After a visit with family in Portland, Austin & Lori decide to move to the Pacific Northwest and land in Washington state.

  • 2016-2017

    During this time, Beard Conditioner is added, as well as the first body products - Blood Bath Body Wash and Dr. Frankenstein's Flesh Revival Cream. New scents come and go - most notably the Psycho Clown and the Creature arrive during this time.

  • 2018

    Jack the Ripper arrives. He is soon overshadowed, though, by the bigger news - the company, now selling products for both beard and body, changes it's name to MONSTER Flesh & Mane. Many notice.

  • 2019

    Arrival of the Bride - Monster's first scent for ladies. The Sinister Stash is first offered in September, quickly becoming an important part of the company.

  • 2020

    You know, this year doesn't really need to be mentioned ever again. Basically, f*** this year.

    We did start selling bar soap though. That's kinda important.

  • 2021

    Okay, we mentioned the bar soap? Well, in 2021 the bar soap started to become as popular as any of our beard products. It represents a shift in the company; after trying for several years to create a more complete line of products, during this year a balance is finally acheived.

  • 2022+

    MONSTER is now in it's 8th year. We are working on expanding our diverse selection of beard and body products to become a total solution for men, women, and all creatures of the night.
