- SSSanjay SharmaOct 29, 20251.0I had my first haircut about a month ago. Splendid. I went back again today and it was terrible, done in perhaps 5 mins. The person doing it seemed least interested in doing it. Never again.
- PPPradatta PattanaikSep 28, 20251.0I had a very disappointing experience with my first visit to GreatClips (Pleasanton branch). The haircut I received was in terrible shape and looked very unprofessional. It seemed like the stylist was inexperienced and not confident in handling a proper haircut. I had read some negative reviews earlier but decided to give it a try myself—unfortunately, those reviews were accurate. This place does not seem to maintain professional standards, and the staff needs more training. I would strongly recommend that management ensure more skilled stylists are available, otherwise customers will continue to have bad experiences. For others considering this location: please read the reviews carefully before going. I tried ignoring them and regretted it after my first visit. I will not be returning.
- RMRoopa MogiliSep 13, 20251.0One of the worst experiences. She cut my daughters hair so short that she is balling her eyes off.
- JLJon LaveroSep 13, 20252.0I can't count how many times I've gotten "messed up" at this hair salon. As soon as I got a cut, and walked into school, I always got flamed for how bad my haircut was. Even my younger sister used to flame me 😭. But I keep coming back here because it's very close to my home, and I always hope it gets better, but it never does. Although, I am going to leave two stars because one time (I forgot the barber's name unfortunately), I received the best haircut of my life and tipped him 50 percent. Then I could never find him again 😭.
- RVRAVI VEDJul 17, 20251.0One of the worst haircut experience ever. The staff doesn't understand, neither ask for any clarity. The storing of haircut in your profile is useless as they don't go by it.
