Supercuts
Although Supercuts styles itself as a neighborhood unisex hair salon, the chain targets male clients who want convenience (no appointments necessary) and affordability. (About two-thirds of Supercuts' customers are men.) The cut-rate haircut chain is a subsidiary of Regis Corporation, the world's largest operator of hair salons. With 2,000-plus company-owned and franchised outlets, Supercuts accounts for nearly 20% of its parent company's nearly 12,000 salons. Supercuts salons are typically located in strip centers in the U.S., Canada, Puerto Rico, and the UK. Supercuts was founded in the 1970s and performs more than 100,000 haircuts (for an average price of $14) and 1,200 hair colors daily.
