- MMMichael Mendosa5 days ago1.0Did not bother to take any time or effort to cut my mother hair properly. Did not blend in the back and showed no care in doing a decent job. You get what you pay for. Shop owner was unpleasant as well.
- BMButch MudgettFeb 12, 20265.0I enjoy the senior discounts on Tuesdays. My cut is fairly simple, but I have observed younger customers getting the full treatment and walking away very satisfied.
- ANAndy NgDec 20, 20254.0I've been looking all over Santa Cruz county for an affordable haircut spot and I gotta say, Great Clips may just be up there in delivering a solid product. I worked with Lisa who was the absolute sweetest. She was charming and made sure the cut I got was what I wanted. I don't usually ask for much with my hair nowadays, but she made me feel comfortable and even recommended saving my measurements and needs in the Great Clips app so they can know for next time. My haircut was done within 15 minutes so just enough time to get it trimmed, inspected, and to give the seal of approval. Shop wise - it was very bright, clean, and played some good music as well. I'll definitely plan on coming back here in the future.
- BGB GNov 25, 20255.0Albina or Alb is fantastic. She will ask all the right questions for the right haircut. And please tip well.. especially if you’re using a coupon or discount that’s how people make it in the service industry!
- CHCheryl HensonNov 3, 20255.0Lisa was fantastic: Best haircut I’ve ever had! The layers look great and the cut is easy care and super flattering 🌺
