Sport Clips Haircuts' Commitment To Stylists Is Key To The Franchise's "Unstoppable" Future

National Huddle celebrates the franchise’s people and their successes

September 21, 2021 // Franchising.com // SAN ANTONIO, Texas -  The "Unstoppable" theme for Sport Clips Haircuts National Huddle underscores the franchise's resilience through the pandemic and vision for the future. Headlines from the event include key business highlights and, as a recognized leader in the haircare industry, a reinvigorated focus on optimizing career opportunities for professional stylists.

"Stylists are the past, present, and future of Sport Clips. They're the heart and soul of our brand because they create the championship haircut experience our clients love. We are committed to having the best possible culture and work environment across any industry," says Edward Logan, Sport Clips CEO and president. "You'll see innovative training, new support programs, and additional opportunities for our stylists as we continue to grow the number of locations, expand the services we offer, and enhance technology to elevate our experience for clients who trust us as the pros in men’s hair."

  • The majority of new Sport Clips franchisees are veterans, a record percentage for the system.
