Getting A Trim in SLC

Posted on Jun 24, 2009

Often-times when Games of SKATE are held in the strip malls surrounding skateshops the other business owners in the malls are not too keen on their parking being commandeered by a bunch of skateboarders. This, however, did not seem to be the case when the crew held a Game behind Milo Sport in South Jordan, UT. In fact, Milo's neighbors at Sports Clips were not only pretty interested in what we had going on, but even offered the crew and some of the skaters coupons for free haircuts! I'm not sure if they really anticipated the coupons getting used, but like it or not, once the last of the lane-tape was peeled from the asphalt and the padlock clicked on our trailer, five sweaty crew members--Mark, Dieter, Doug, Patrick, and I--came walking in, coupons in hand.

The two girls working, who I hope forgive me for forgetting their names, were friendly and excited to hear about what we were doing while taking great care of us.

They handled our requests, from a simple buzz for Mark and I, to a trim for Doug's luxurious locks, with ease.

Big thanks to the girls at the Sports Clips of South Jordan, UT! These fresh cuts are sure to keep all of our heads a little cooler in the hot months to come.
