Sport Clips Adds Richmond, Virgina to its Roster

RICHMOND, VA (Thursday, June 09, 2005) - Sport Clips, known as the hair cutting chain for men and boys where "Guys Win," has opened its newest store in Richmond, Virginia. The store located at 11736 W Broad St, on the ring road of the Short Pump Town Center Mall , is the 1 st store in Richmond. Sport Clips provides high-quality haircuts in a fun, sports-themed environment, complete with a big-screen TV up front and TVs at every styling station tuned to sports. Sport Clips is also the only place to be treated like a “MVP” with a soothing steam towel to the face and a relaxing upper back and shoulder massage. Every Sport Clips has specially-trained Stylists who stay current with the latest in men's and boys' fashions and who are skilled in dealing with the unique challenges men and boys face with their hair.

"Every time we introduce our unique concept to a new market it's exciting," said Gordon Logan, CEO and founder of Sport Clips. Gordon founded Sport Clips in 1995 in Georgetown, TX after he noticed an industry largely focusing on women, and neglecting men. “We have taken what most guys have considered a simple commodity by getting a haircut, into an exciting experience.” Now the industry's fastest growing franchise, the Richmond store is number 259 in the country. "Richmond is a perfect place for Sport Clips. Here men and boys are looking for an environment that caters to them."

Keith and Linda Kostek, area developers for the Richmond market, are excited to be a part of the Sport Clips team. “We have fantastic Franchisees, Dan, Martha, and Patrick Frakes, who are thrilled to be the 1st in the Richmond Market and are looking forward to being an active part of the community.” said the Kosteks. There are plans to build 12 Sport Clips throughout the Richmond area.

With locations in 24 states, and now four locations in Virginia, Sport Clips is considered to be one of the hottest concepts in the hair industry, having been included in the prestigious Entrepreneur Magazine “Franchise 500” for the past five years consecutively. Sport Clips is rapidly growing with commitments to over 500 more locations across the country. Focused on being the place where "Guys Win," Sport Clips features a convenient "Your Call" pricing system - where you can look like a quarterback, but spend like a place kicker! Sport Clips features an odor-free environment—no perms, colors or acrylic nail smells. No ladies in curlers, no soap operas on the TVs. Neck trims are complimentary between cuts, and haircuts are reasonably priced at only $15.00 for men and $12.00 for kids twelve and under, and for a limited time only to celebrate the grand opening of the new location, Sport Clips is having a special with an amazing $9.00 per haircut!
