ATLANTA – October 9, 2015 – Pigtails & Crewcuts, a children’s hair salon franchise dedicated to making haircuts fun and stress-free for young patrons and their parents, has been named one of the 20 Leading Children’s Franchises by Business-Opportunities.biz.
In awarding Pigtails & Crewcuts top honors, the leaders at Business-Opportunities.biz noted that by 2020, children will make up nearly 25 percent of the population. Translation: it’s a great time to open a kid-centric business.
Pigtails & Crewcuts, which got its start in Atlanta, Georgia, celebrated its 10th anniversary last year. Since opening in 2004, the franchise has grown to nearly 50 salons across the country and has been named to the “Franchise 500” list as a top franchise by Entrepreneur Magazine for five consecutive years.
According to Pigtails & Crewcuts’ President Wade Brannon, this is the right time to get into the children’s salon business. “We’re in an ‘experience’ economy, and children, just like their parents, are interested in gaining new experiences, whether it’s the pampering that comes with a new hair style, a manicure or a unique party, in a business designed entirely for the smaller set,” says Brannon. “Pigtails & Crewcuts offers all of those, and our growth is testament to the burgeoning demand.”
Brannon, who has been in the franchise industry for more than 30 years, has overseen the opening of hundreds of businesses, including dozens of Pigtails & Crewcuts salons. He formerly served as senior vice president and principal of Heavenly Ham, where he led the company’s expansion from a single retail store in Hilton Head, South Carolina, to more than 200 locations across the United States.
In addition to providing haircuts, hair styling and an array of hair-care products, Pigtails & Crewcuts has a party room reserved for birthday parties, dress-up parties, tea parties, pirate parties and other themed celebrations. In 2010, Parents.com named Pigtails & Crewcuts one of the Top 10 Chains for Kid Birthday Parties.
