- SJSammy JoNov 14, 20255.0As a retired hair stylist I'm picky. I have never had a complaint with my hair cuts from Ashlee. She always listens, occasionally makes a recommendation and never ever cuts too much hair length. I highly recommend her as a great choice for a professional cut All stylists a friendly and greet you if they are not in the middle of a cut. Great atmosphere.

- MYMary YoungSep 26, 20255.0Autumn is great. She listens to what I want and is very professional. Thank you Autumn.
- NJNicolas JacobSep 5, 20255.0Stacey at the Octavus location is nothing short of AMAZING. I got a terrible haircut at a barber down the street from this location. They left strands of longer hair and took a significant chunk of hair out of one side. They also shaved the sides down to the skin. They offered to fix it but I did not trust them to be able to. I immediately went to Great Clips hoping to get the chunk fixed but imaging it was too short to make it look like anything I would be happy with. Not only did Stacey completely blend the chunk, she fixed the long strands and other spots I did not notice. I wish I had before and after photos because it's honestly unbelievable how she was able to fix it all with such little hair to work with. On top of it all, she was a kind person. She was a lifesaver and I will be going back to her.
