A’ja Wilson partners with Mountain Dew. Wilson in her third WNBA season, however, this is her second season partnering with Mountain Dew. She is the first WNBA player to be on the Mountain Dew “roster”. This season she helped bring a salon to the Wubble. Players and coaches did not have access to haircuts up until a few days ago. Wilson and Mountain Dew partnered together to create the Crossover Salon which brought cosmetologists and estheticians into the Wubble for the remainder of this season and the postseason. These services will be complementary to those in the Wubble with the help of Wilson and Mountain Dew.
I’ve had a partnership with @MountainDew for the past two seasons, and it’s nice to have a partner that supports player wellness during our time down here in Florida. So excited to introduce the Crossover Salon 💚 pic.twitter.com/g725LPTkgE

Headband Bill Here to Stay?
Although coaches will have access to these services, players of the Las Vegas Aces do not want HC Bill Laimbeer to cut his hair. The Aces are currently on a seven-game winning streak and look to extend it to eight games tonight when they tip-off against the Chicago Sky at 9 PM ET on ESPN2.
I’m superstitious.. Bill shouldn’t cut his hair if we are winning 🤷🏽♀️

At first, it was a joke about Headband Bill, but now it has turned into something serious for the Aces. Although Bill now has the option to cut his hair and shave, if he desires, many fans and players in and outside of the Wubble are wanting it to stay. Should Bill keep the long hair and the headband or is it time for a change? Thanks to Mountain Dew and A’ja Wilson he will have the choice, even if its the wrong one.
Like and RT if you think Headband Bill should stay or give us one good reason Bill should cut his hair and shave 👇 pic.twitter.com/CK26aLHXPd

Wilson Continues Partnership in the Wubble
A’ja Wilson may be stuck in the Wubble, also known as the IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida. However, this does not stop A’ja from continuing her partnership with Mountain Dew. A’ja helped bring the Crossover Salon, which may not seem like a big deal to us at home, but to those without one in the Wubble, this will make a huge difference. This opportunity will help players and coaches get back to themselves and look good on and off the court.
