Patrick Mahomes is Flying His Barber Out to the Super Bowl Because a Fresh Cut is a Fresh Cut
By Michael Luciano
"If you look good, you feel good. If you feel good, you play good. If you play good, they pay good."
Deion Sanders' immortal words must clearly be rattling around in the head of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes as he prepares to take on the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LIV. To make sure his cut is as immaculate as possible, Mahomes is arranging for his barber to be flown into Miami to give him a quick trim before the big game.
Patrick Mahomes told me he will have his barber fly in from Kansas City to give Mahomes a fresh cut Friday before the Super Bowl. More at 130 on @CBSSportsHQ

Mahomes gets his hair cut every Friday, and he isn't letting the distance between Kansas City and Miami get in the way.
Mahomes' trademark curly mohawk-ish style has become as much of a trademark as his ungodly strong arm or his Kermit-esque voice, and keeping it in premier condition is a must for No. 15.
Mahomes said he will be flying his barber to Miami, FL, to continue his tradition of getting a haircut before a game. #ChiefsKingdom https://t.co/iLOa0FJo0S

Mahomes will get his fresh cut before he takes on Robert Saleh and a violent 49ers defense, and only time will tell if adhering to tradition will help him come out on top in the biggest game of his life.
