I usually have good experience at great clips. However, today was a terrible experience. There was a slight misunderstanding with my son hair and when I told her about it she seems to be upset and just started buzzing it short very quickly like she didn’t care if it was pulling my kids hair. When finished there were long strands of hair left and I was greatly upset with the whole thing. I was also getting a haircut at the same time and my own experience was awful as well. If this is what great clips is about I strongly recommend going else we’re. I get they have a time limit to do hair cuts. But that was the worst hair cut experience for me and my 8 year old son.
Mens, womens, kids and senior haircuts as well as bang, neck and beard trims. Other haircare services include shampoo, blow dry, or hair styling such as an updo. Select salons offer perm services.
