Would not recommend. The customer service was poor, and the barber seemed undertrained. The haircut felt extremely rough, leaving my scalp sore and very uncomfortable throughout the process. They also ask personal information which should be optional and not a requirement!

This is a five star review coming to you from the perspective as a mom! (I asked Haider if I could post a photo of him. He said he was okay with it.)
My son is three - almost four. He never had an issue with haircuts until 6 months ago. He had a panic attack and wasn't able to get him to ever go back to the salon. But yesterday I asked him if he was interested. He said yes, but he wanted a sucker. So I promised him I would get him one if he was good.
I called Great Clips in Fridley and talked to Eric on the phone. I knew they were an hour away from closing, but I asked them if they could squeeze us in. Eric said they could do it if I made it before 4:30pm. We made it with just 5 minutes to spare. They checked us in, and right away, we were introduced to Haider who was absolutely wonderful. Haider was so kind and so patient. He treated my little guy with a lot of respect and care. And at the end, my son was so proud of his "big boy haircut" and he really liked his friend, Haider.
Long story, short. A big thanks to Eric and Haider at Great Clips who squeezed us in before close and now made my son comfortable with going to the salon again. We can't wait to come back. Thank you!
By the way, my son was given two suckers by Haider and an awesome fist bump.

Worst Great Clips I’ve ever been to. The man in there was extremely rude. We checked in online and when I got there they moved us further back on the list and people who got there after us were getting haircuts before us even though we were on the list first. We just ended up leaving. What a waste of time.

Employee left to go buy a cell phone charger right about the time I was scheduled to get my hair cut. After waiting 30 mins I left. Wasted almost an hour sitting there.

Short wait, but worth the time. Lynn always does a great job and knows just what to do to take care of any problems I might have with my hair. I go in feeling like a shaggy dog and leave feeling great.
