Greetings A-J readers! This week in Lubbock, there was an incident where a vehicle crashed through a wall at Golden Corral. Despite this, a restaurant official mentioned that they plan to reopen by the end of the week. In other news, a new men’s hair salon called Hairbreak Hotel is set to open soon. Located at 2614 130th St., Unit 3, the salon will have a rock ‘n’ roll vibe inspired by Elvis Presley. The owner, Tristan Chancey, shared that his grandmother’s love for Elvis was the inspiration behind the salon’s name. The business will also offer an exclusive line of beard oil for customers.
On Monday, we will feature an article on Ransom Canyon metalsmith Dawna Gillespie. Her work includes jewelry and ornamental art made from brass and copper. Gillespie will discuss the science behind her craft, why she chose this medium, and how a course at Texas Tech influenced her career path. Be sure to keep an eye out for this fascinating read.
Looking ahead to next week, the monthly business round-up will be published on Wednesday. Stay tuned to find out about businesses that have closed, opened, and made announcements. Thank you for your continued support of the A-J, we appreciate you!
