- BSBrandon SortoNov 9, 20251.0TERRIBLE PLACE ,DO NOT GO THERE
- KKKarenSep 18, 20255.0Fabulous service, great haircut, friendly people. This is my favorite salon.
- CBChaotic BardJul 8, 20255.0I was in a really rough spot due to some personal issues, so I called ahead and asked if I could have an appointment where I just…didn’t have to talk. (Except for saying how I wanted my hair obviously. lol.) My hairstylist was Li, and not only did he absolutely respect that, he was also very kind and thorough. He checked several times throughout the haircut with me to make sure it was how I wanted it. Li is a real one for that. Thank you guys
- SBShehar BanoJul 3, 20251.0One of the worst experience I had today with my hair at Great Clips. My stylist was Dusanka.She didn't clean the chair it was full of hair.I requested her to clean the seat. I asked her to cut long layers from front and just trim from back .She totally ruined my hair, they were uneven.
- LGLucia Doyle GarciaJun 16, 20251.0worst experience ever, they cut my hair so poorly, it was all crooked and it was so greasy after, i might as well payed the $50 somewhere else
