KNOXVILLE -- Pigtails & Crewcuts is expanding into Knoxville, Tennessee. The franchise has signed on three locations in the Knoxville area, with the first planned to open later this year at Turkey Creek.
Pigtails & Crewcuts has over 50 children’s hair salons across the country and offers children and their families a fun and exciting approach to haircuts. The first Knoxville salon will be in the Turkey Creek area and will offer the same delightful experience found at other Pigtails & Crewcuts locations, including whimsical, vehicle-shaped chairs, bright colors, and a variety of books, movies, toys, and video games to enjoy before, during, and after the haircut. The salon will also feature a retail section filled with children’s hair products, accessories, and gifts.
“My first experience with Pigtails & Crewcuts was when I walked into one of the Orlando locations and I fell in love with the concept,” says owner Taryn Smith. “I had experienced struggles with haircuts with my own kids and waited until we were visiting family in Orlando to take my youngest son to get a haircut at a dedicated kids’ salon. We came home and I couldn’t get the idea of Pigtails & Crewcuts off my mind because I knew Knoxville needs it. I saw an opportunity and jumped on it.”
Smith says she knows plenty of other parents who have experienced struggles with their children’s haircuts as well and is thrilled to give them a salon designed just for kids. “I’m excited to be filling a void in the area,” Smith shares.
“We’re happy to be expanding the franchise into Knoxville and look forward to sharing our unique approach to children’s haircuts with families in the area,” says Theresa Underwood, Vice President of Franchise Support.
The Turkey Creek salon will be the fourth Pigtails & Crewcuts franchise in Tennessee, joining locations already open in Chattanooga, Germantown, and Murfreesboro. Keep up with the latest progress and updates from Pigtails & Crewcuts.
