Irving, Texas-based Knockouts Haircuts for Men has sold the franchise rights for four states in New England to a Boston couple, Bing and Winnie Yeo. The deal is the first in the Northeast for the boxing-themed hair salon that caters exclusively to men.
Knockouts has sold more than 120 franchises in ten states, including Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Arizona, Indiana, Massachusetts, Vermont, Maine, New Hampshire and Colorado.
The chain of men-only hair salons currently has stores open in Addison, Arlington, Las Colinas/Irving, Lewisville and Southlake, Texas; Denver, Colorado; Atlanta/Buckhead, Georgia and St.Louis, Missouri. The New England stores are expected to begin opening in late 2007 and early 2008.
The full-service, boxing-themed salon provides competitively-priced haircuts and is known for its specially-chosen staff of female employees wearing Knockouts Girls boxing uniforms. The salons also specialize in color/lightening, massage therapy, manicures, pedicures and hair waxing.
Knockouts offers a pampering experience for men that is not available at discount walk-in salons, such as providing large leather chairs, individual flat screen TV's with remote controls at each station and complimentary beverages. The environment is upscale, yet casual and fun, as the stylists cut hair inside two boxing rings.
"We are excited to bring Knockouts to the New England area," said Bing Yeo. "Knockouts is the perfect concept in full-service grooming for men with a goal to provide them with both an exceptional and affordable grooming experience."
