    Michelle is amazing! I had a fantastic haircut. I have curly hair, and after my appointment with her, my curls look more defined than ever.

    Junco is the absolute best! She is always professional and so kind! So long as she is there I will continue getting my haircut there.

    I had a really bad experience at this location this afternoon. When it was my turn, I was helped by a female stylist wearing a mask with her hair in a ponytail. From the moment I sat down, there was basically no greeting or communication. She briefly mentioned something about a “fade,” and after I gave a clear answer and showed her a reference photo, she immediately started cutting without confirming anything further. The entire haircut felt extremely rushed — it took no more than five minutes from start to finish. The clippers were used very aggressively, going back and forth with a lot of pressure, which was uncomfortable. Throughout the service, her attitude and facial expression clearly showed impatience, and it did not feel like she cared about the customer experience at all. The final result was unacceptable. The haircut looked nothing like the reference photo, and the two sides of my head were noticeably uneven. This is a basic issue that should not happen at a professional chain salon. What made this more frustrating is that I’ve been to this same location before and had a great experience with a different stylist — both in terms of attitude and skill. This visit was the complete opposite. Before leaving, I asked for her name so I could give proper feedback, and she refused to provide it, which felt very unprofessional. Overall, this was a poor experience in terms of service, communication, and technical quality. I would not want to be served by this stylist again, and I hope management takes consistency and staff training more seriously.

    It all depends on who you get to cut your hair. I’ve had good cuts from here before but today was probably the worst haircut I’ve ever had. Half my hair is longer than the rest. I’m not sure if she was understanding what I was saying. I asked her to make it shorter and she only did one side. At that point I just wanted to get out. She was very nice and I still tipped but I won’t be going back.

    Worst Haircut Ever – Completely Botched and Rushed I went to Great Clips for what should have been a simple trim – I even showed pictures and explained exactly what I wanted: just take off an inch or two, keep the layers even, and blend the sides. The stylist barely looked at the photos, rushed through the whole thing in under 10 minutes, and didn't listen when I tried to point out issues during the cut. The result? Uneven lengths all over (one side is noticeably shorter than the other), choppy layers that look like they were hacked with kitchen scissors, and spots where it's way too short – now I have to wear hats until it grows out. It looks awful from every angle, and I'm embarrassed to go out in public. This isn't "budget-friendly" – it's just poor quality. I've had okay cuts at other Great Clips locations before, but this one was a total disaster. No apology, no offer to fix it on the spot, just "you're done." Save your money and go somewhere that actually cares about doing a good job. 0/10, will never return.
