- YYYosha2 days ago1.0I recently got a haircut at the Great Clips location on Gosford in Bakersfield, and unfortunately my experience was very disappointing. The stylist who cut my hair, Rocio R., was not friendly at all and came across as very rude and unprofessional during the service. From the start, her attitude made me feel uncomfortable as a customer. It felt like she had no interest in being welcoming or providing good customer service. At certain moments, the way she spoke and interacted with me even made me feel like there might have been some bias or discrimination, which made the experience even more unpleasant. Despite how I was treated, I still chose to remain polite and even gave her a tip because I try to treat people with respect. However, the overall experience left a very bad impression. Customers go to places like this expecting basic friendliness, courtesy, and professionalism. I hope management looks into this because no customer should feel unwelcome when they are simply paying for a haircut.

- CFCynthia FloresJan 29, 20265.0Arrived and was greeted. Waited short amount of time before being chaired. Young lady was pleasant, checked preference data and gave a nice cut with friendly conversation.
- KCKam ChangJan 9, 20265.0Anna has been cutting my hair at the Gosford location for several years now and she always does a fantastic job. This location is always quite busy but all of the stylists work quickly and efficiently. People get in and out in a timely manner. Highly recommend this location and especially Anna because she does a great job!
