Georgetown-based Sport Clips bringing 'upscale' barbershop to Round Rock

Sport Clips will be partnering with a salon owner from Knoxville, Tennessee, to create a "high end" barbershop in Round Rock.

AUSTIN, Texas — Georgetown-based Sport Clips has announced the company is bringing what they describe an "upscale" barbershop to Round Rock.

Gordon Logan, a Georgetown native and the founder of Sport Clips, will partner with Knoxville shop owner, Frank Gambuzza to bring a barbershop called Gambuzza's Barbershop to the Round Rock area, according to a press release.

Logan founded Sport Clips back in 1993. Now the company has more than 1,800 locations across the United States and in Canada. 

This new Round Rock barbershop will be an "upscale alternative to Sport Clips Haircuts," the press release said. The business will offer haircuts at a higher price point but will offer traditional barber shaves in addition to haircuts. Gambuzza said that they will blend Italian barbering tradition with the latest trends and techniques.
