- RRRaymondNov 4, 20251.0I’ve visited Great Clips four times, and I can’t believe I’ve been disappointed on the last two visits in a row. It really makes me question the professionalism of some of their stylists. Based on my experience, those who talk the most don’t always demonstrate the same level of skill in haircutting. How can we, as customers, help you improve your haircutting skills — by providing more honest feedback?
- MMmattheweurt26Aug 22, 20252.0Slow as hell, employees hanging out chilling not trying to clear the filled lobby. Especially Heather. Like watching paint dry trying to get a haircut here
- DRDaniel RoblesJul 16, 20252.0Went in for a haircut for myself and my daughter. Mine was great but my daughter’s haircut was honestly so bad. I don’t understand how that happens.
