FAYETTEVILLE — KJ Jefferson does not have to venture far to get pampered.

Less than one mile from Arkansas’ practice fields outside Walker Pavilion sits Spoil U Nail & Spa on Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. Inside those walls, he is a familiar face.

Upon walking through the door he is almost immediately pointed to a chair. In the past, Jefferson has attempted to bring a few of the Razorbacks’ offensive linemen with him, but they have been slower to latch on.
