History of Craft Grooming Products

      In the summer of 2015, James Harris, founder of Craft Grooming Products, faced a dilemma familiar to many men: beard products that simply didn't deliver results. Frustrated by inferior products packed with low-quality ingredients, James decided to take matters into his own hands.    

     Driven by his passion for quality grooming, James dove into extensive research, exploring natural ingredients beneficial for both beard and skin health. Transforming his kitchen into a makeshift lab, he handcrafted his first premium beard oil, carefully selecting each natural ingredient to meet his exacting standards. This handcrafted beard oil quickly became the cornerstone of what would become the HandCRAFTed line of Craft Grooming Products.    

     James began selling his beard oil to local barbershops, and it instantly resonated with customers. Demand grew, and soon customers requested more products, specifically a pomade infused with the beard oil’s popular signature scents. Returning to his lab, James crafted a versatile beard balm that doubled as a light-hold pomade, expanding his offerings and solidifying Craft Grooming Products’ reputation.    

     Over the years, James continued developing and perfecting the Craft Grooming line, growing from a single beard oil into a comprehensive collection of men's grooming essentials. Today, Craft Grooming Products can be found online and in numerous barbershops and men’s grooming stores throughout Southern California.    

     Inspired by his roots in Southern California’s vibrant culture of motorcycles, classic cars, and music, James built Craft Grooming Products around the lifestyle he loves. True to its name, Craft’s mission has always been clear: setting the industry standard by maintaining impeccable quality, integrity, and meticulous handCRAFTsmanship in every product.    

     Taking his dedication further, James enrolled in barber school in 2022, finishing his studies in 2023. After successfully passing the Barber State Board Exam on his first attempt in early 2024, James is now poised to open his very own barbershop. His vision continues, blending barbering expertise with the ongoing commitment to Craft Grooming Products as one of the premier handCRAFTed men’s grooming brands.
