In preparation for the new Sport Clips Haircuts Collection, the first-ever Sport Clips Artistic Team brought their "A" game. Working with their coach, Expert Cutter Julian Perlingiero and guided by Sport Clips Senior Director of Career Opportunities Julie Vargas and Sport ClipsDirector of Technical Education Mary Carter, this talented team scored high marks. The haircut and styling collection demonstrates both the talent of the Sport Clips men's specialists and serves to motivate existing Sport Clips stylists and those interested in joining this winning team.
Artistic Team members Erin Burton, Andrea Allemand, Krystle Sierras, Linda Casillas, Bailey Wernke and Ashlee Merriweather live and work in salons across the country. Prior to the shoot, which was held in late 2015 at the Sport Clips Headquarters in Texas, the stylists were asked to identify photos of men's cuts and styles that interested and inspired them and to send them into Sport Clips. Ultimately, their models would be styled in two ways: polished and classic and then more relaxed and sporty (naturally). The final looks will be unveiled soon but here is a peek at how the best got even better and how they emobodied the Sport Clips Mission Statement: “To create a championship haircut experience for men and boys in an exciting sport environment.”
