Hudson Hawk Barber & Shop

What Hudson Hawk Barber & Shop does

Hudson Hawk Barber & Shop (operating under the DBA 'Hudson/Hawk') is a privately held regional barbershop chain headquartered in Springfield, Missouri. Founded in 2013, the company operates 11 physical retail locations across Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas, and Oklahoma, serving walk-in and appointment-based individual consumers seeking haircuts and grooming services. The company positions itself as a neighborhood barbershop 'for all generations,' emphasizing modern, comfortable spaces and an in-person experience rather than a tech-forward model.

The core offering is traditional barbershop services — haircuts and grooming — supplemented by a small retail line of professional hair and grooming brands ('Brands We Carry'). The underlying technology stack is minimal: no proprietary platform is disclosed, and the company relies on third-party SaaS, notably Blvd (blvd.app), for online appointment booking and customer login across all locations. The website serves as a marketing and information layer, with content marketing via a blog, a careers page for talent acquisition, and location/service information.

Revenue is generated per-transaction at the point of service. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and no subscription, membership, or contract-based revenue model is mentioned. The go-to-market motion is direct-to-consumer through physical storefronts, with online booking as the primary conversion mechanism. Marketing is local and website-centric, supported by 417 Marketing as web design partner. The company reports 34 total employees, is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors or funding rounds, and operates without subsidiaries, patents, or formal partnerships beyond vendor relationships.

Broad incumbents

• Cost Cutters: Value-oriented hair salon franchise operated by Regis Corporation, providing affordable cuts and styling for the whole family. Comparable in serving all generations and operating multi-state franchise locations.
