Madison, Alabama

Corey Nixon is a military veteran, systems engineer, and entrepreneur with nearly twenty years of experience designing, building, and operating reliable business systems. He is the founder of Tactical Grooming, established with a clear objective: to create a barbershop that runs on structure, consistency, and professionalism rather than personality or hype.

With a background in systems engineering and business operations, Corey is responsible for the operational foundation of Tactical Grooming. His work includes workflow design, booking and scheduling systems, internal technology, infrastructure planning, and long-term scalability. Every process in the shop is built to reduce friction, improve reliability, and support consistent service delivery.

Corey approaches business the same way he approaches engineering: define standards, build repeatable systems, monitor performance, and correct issues directly. This mindset shapes how Tactical Grooming operates day to day, ensuring that both clients and barbers experience a calm, well-run environment focused on the work.

In addition to operations and systems, Corey oversees strategic planning, brand direction, and business development. His leadership philosophy emphasizes accountability, preparation, and continuous improvement. The goal is not rapid growth, but sustainable quality built on dependable processes.

As a veteran, Corey maintains a strong respect for military members, first responders, and professionals who value structure and reliability. Under his leadership, Tactical Grooming remains neutral, disciplined, and accessible—focused on delivering consistent results through systems that work.

Tactical Grooming reflects Corey’s belief that long-term quality comes from preparation, discipline, and well-designed systems—not slogans.
