- CPCorey PayneJan 3, 20261.0Unbelievable wait times. Took the other person in my party and then had me wait another hour for my turn. Don't bother.
- WSWAYNE SIMMERMANDec 20, 20255.0I’ve had the same barber for over twenty years but today I tried Great Cuts. I was very pleased with being greeted upon walking in and of course the haircut. Lindsay did an excellent job.
- CRCarol RecordsNov 17, 20255.0Tonya was professional, fun, polite and paid great attention to detail. I'll absolutely request her again!
- LSlorry SpencerNov 14, 20251.0The sign says, walk ins, welcome! I beg to differ. I walked in, all chairs full with people waiting & girl said it would be an hour wait. I sat there & waited, til I was only customer, waiting, almost an hour. In the meantime, the waiting customers had filled back up & when girl called next customer, I was put back, to bottom of list, because of not checking in online. You need to change your sign, to online check ins, only....total BS! Everytime, I go to this great clips, there's always, something & I will not be spending my money, with this store, ever again...not that it matters to anyone that works there.
