- MHMumisk HamsterFeb 15, 20265.0They are amazing
- TFTimothy FerrellJan 29, 20265.0Great haircut and a greater person who cut my hair!!!
- MBMike BlanchardJan 29, 20265.0Had a great experience. Used the app to make an appointment. Was first in line when I arrived. No wait. Got a great haircut. Used my coupon. Very happy. Thank you Great Clips.
- JPJohn PattiJan 29, 20263.0The process of getting a haircut at Great Clips is simple and easy, especially with the ability to make a reservation and wait until it's your turn to leave the house. However, your prices are way too expensive for a senior who is bald with the need of just a trim (#6) along the sides. $21.00 (plus a tip) is too expensive. I have to wait until coupons are available. I am in and out of the shop in 9 minutes. I suggest a lower price for someone with very little hair.
- SBScott BourlandJan 22, 20265.0Emily is outstanding and always friendly. She has been cutting my hair for over 3 years.
