Ethan Brown, 4, of Beaufort, gets a haircut from Lou Nelsen, owner of Barbers of the Lowcountry, at the business’s recent promotional event, held Saturday, Feb. 8 at the Beaufort Town Center. (Barber Brent Nelsen is featured in the background.) The event featured free haircuts and hot dogs and was a way to say “Hello Beaufort,” barber Bill Rickett said. Rickett, not shown, will be the general manager at the barbershop’s Beaufort location when the shop opens in the plaza “sometime in March.” The event had provided some 25 haircuts as of 2 p.m. Saturday, when Ethan sat down in the chair.
