n.a.

Hair Saloon is a men’s grooming franchise that operates premium haircutting salons focused on services for men and boys. The system emphasizes a distinctive, male-oriented salon environment, staffed by licensed cosmetologists and barbers, and it also sells proprietary Hair Saloon-branded hair care products for use in the salon and for retail. Brand messaging centers on the idea of an “Honorable Rebellion Among Men” and the tagline “Men Deserve Better.”

The concept was launched in 1997 in St. Louis by Tom Twellman Sr.. It grew from an effort to re-create a modern barbershop experience with standardized service procedures and a consistent guest routine, including complimentary amenities like a beverage, shampoo, hot towel finish, and shoeshine.
