About Sport Clips

Founded in 1993 and franchising since 1995, Sport Clips has grown into one of the most recognized brands in men’s and boys’ hair care. Today, the system includes more than 1,700 franchised locations and over 80 company-owned stores across North America. Walking into a Sport Clips feels less like a chore and more like catching the game. Every shop pairs professional cuts with a welcoming environment — plenty of TVs on the walls and a service model that values a client's time. The goal is to offer a "Championship Haircut Experience" that feels worth repeating every few weeks. With over three decades of history and billions in systemwide sales, the brand has turned men’s grooming into a science while keeping that friendly, local barbershop connection.
