What is an MVP haircut at Sport Clips? ›

First-time Clients automatically receive a free MVP upgrade on their first visit. The Varsity Haircut is upgraded to an MVP Experience at no additional charge and includes our legendary hot steamed towel, massaging shampoo and a relaxing neck and shoulder treatment.

A fade haircut is a cutting technique that tapers the hair so it eventually “fades” into the skin. Generally, this involves keeping it longer on top and gradually shaving closer down the sides and back. This hairstyle is also called the “military reg”, as it mimics the traditional cut given to men in the service.

Sport Clips offers beard trims and detailing services, as well as high quality products to help strengthen, maintain, and protect your beard.

Prior to opening the prototype Sport Clips in 1993, Gordon Logan owned and operated salons throughout Texas.

20 percent to 25 percent:

20 percent is the most common tipping percentage in the hair industry. Tipping anywhere from 20 to 25 percent is a great range for anyone who is a salon regular or just received a haircut they love. Tipping properly is a great way to strengthen the relationship with your stylist.

Generally speaking, for good service, you should tip 15 to 20 percent of the entire bill. Tip more for exceptional service or less for what you consider to be inadequate service. Tipping is your way of saying “job well done,” so tip more if the person performing the service has gone above and beyond what is expected.

Trimming your facial hair will prevent flyaways, split ends, dryness and that slightly disheveled look you're probably trying to avoid while ensuring that your beard works well with your face shape. The best trimmed beard has well defined beard lines, appropriate shape, and length to match your face angles.

Visiting a skilled barber is beneficial even if you keep your beard on the shorter side. They can help shape your beard resulting in a balanced and more proportional look.

We do not shave heads in the traditional sense with a straight edge razor. We do what is called a bald fade, but that is more of a haircut style where we use a special electric shaver that gets very close to the skin at the neck and base of the head, but it is not a shave in the technical sense.

"Sport Clips stylists have the training and creative skills to give clients that feeling of confidence a good haircut and great look can inspire," says Stacia Kelley, Sport Clips Haircuts artistic director. "Fades are highly technical, and we provide extensive training in how to get them just right.
