Our incredibly COOL salon concept for kids has franchise locations now in Lee's Summit MO, Albuquerque NM, San Antonio TX, McAllen TX, and West Des Moines IA thanks to our dedicated and enthusiastic franchisees and our team. Now we would like to take a moment and recognize each one of our fabulous franchise owners and their families. To our ever growing Shear Mad-tastic Family - Here's to you!

Shear Madness Franchise Owners

Picture 1Brenda and Eduardo Morales: Our very first Shear Madness franchise owners, this couple opened their first salon in San Antonio TX at the Village in Stone Oak in San Antonio, TX in November 2012. Brenda and Eduardo have faithfully endured many of the early franchising growing pains with good humor and a willingness to learn. Their store has steadily seen growth despite the tough competition in their area. Their birthday parties have been a very successful addition to their haircutting business. We are so grateful for this caring, enthusiastic, and extremely hard working couple. Brenda currently manages the store while Eduardo assists however he can while also managing his business in Mexico. They live in San Antonio with their two children.
