LockerRoom franchise

About Us franchise

Locker Room Haircuts was founded in 2012 in Lubbock, TX, by longtime Lubbock residents Tony Wright and Brad Barnhill. These two gentlemen figured that since sports are conversation topics in every barbershop, why not kick it up to the next level? They have indeed kicked it, and here it is — a fun place to get a fantastic haircut at an outstanding price while customers enjoy a TV at every station and a free cold beverage (with valid ID). Locker Room’s professional staff is ready to serve each customer from the moment they walk-in to the locker room themed environment. Local sports teams (college and pro) are represented, as jerseys with names of local stars, helmets, flags, and more create a fun décor and environment. Customers can rest assured that its not all fun and games. The licensed barbers and cosmetologist are committed to 100% satisfaction to make sure that every haircut is perfect, every time. The prestigious Locker Room barbers respectfully understand the specific needs that each client desires and work efficiently to accomplish those needs, leaving the customers looking great and feeling satisfied with the overall experience. From its first location in Lubbock, and the seven that have opened since (and four more on the way), the theme is the same. Locker Room is decorated with dark walls, a red and black motif to create the feel of a high-end professional locker room. The shop is the creation of Brad Barnhill and Tony Wright, two business-minded entrepreneurs who saw a gap in the hair care market segment very early. There has been an enormous amount of interest, potential franchise growth, and overall acceptance of Locker Room as a business, brand and franchise.
