- LMLaura Miller4 days ago1.0Not the best experience. Dried hair with a comb, then left back wet and when I tried to dry it myself she literally ran over and grabbed hairdryer from my hand scolding me.
- MMMack Mack6 days ago1.0I sit in there waiting my turn for about 30 minutes then when it was my turn somebody else walked in the door ahead and they called them ahead of me. Even though I was next on the list.. so I got up and left and told them never mind I didn't have all day.
- ETEugene TironNov 3, 20255.0Most hairstylists are pretty good at the the style of hair that im looking for. Overall, been really great
- TSTonsil StonesOct 13, 20251.0Worst hair place ever. They screwed up my hair I asked for a low taper and my hair cut to my eyebrows and they gave me multiple bald spots and buzzed my hair. The lady who cut my hair was so rough, she acted like she despised of my existence. She yanked and jerked my hair. Such a terrible place. Never returning. YALL ARE THE WORST!
- JDJames DanielOct 12, 20255.0I had the best experience at Great Clips thanks to the amazing stylists — Tiana, Mya, Ms. Lennet, and Kiedra! I brought in a few young Black boys who hadn’t had haircuts in quite some time, and these ladies went above and beyond. They were so kind, patient, and compassionate the entire time. They didn’t just cut hair, they educated the boys, made them feel comfortable, and treated them with so much care and respect. You can tell they truly love what they do and care about their clients. I’m so grateful for their professionalism and their hearts.
