| - First of all, I am very picky about my haircuts. Over the last 2.5 years, only one lady has ever touched the mop on my head. But since I moved to Pittsburgh, flying to the OC for a haircut would be a little pricey/ridiculous. So I thought I would give Sport Clips a try.
They have an interesting website explaining how they cater specifically to the needs of male grooming and most importantly how for your first time there you get a free upgrade to their MVP package, don't forget to let them know. Also they do not take reservations, if only by walk-ins.
When I walked through the doors, I told myself, "this cannot be any worse than Supercuts, just give it a try." So i put my name down and waited for the next available stylist. This place was BUSY. I waited for about 20 minutes, but it was fine because there was a flat screen TV showing the Lakers game. Now I have to be honest, there has to be a screening process for these stylists besides haircutting ability. By this, I mean: none of them were unattractive. So I could see the appeal of this place, and how it correlated with the number of middle aged men waiting to be groomed.
To be brief about the haircut experience, well I really do not have to try because it was the fastest haircut I have ever gotten, and I was having a lot of hair cut off (I hadn't been to a barber in over 4 months). So as you can expect, the #4 clippers did most of the work, and then she followed up the buzz with some scissor action and then, Done!
Well the haircut was not bad, but I normally tend to be particular about some things, but at this point, fearing the buzzers to come back out, I decided to just let it go and the cut looked good enough. So I guess if you are not looking for a fancy cut, this place is good for the price and the staff.
