Kathy was AMAZING!! This was my first time getting a haircut at this location. Despite never having been there before, Kathy not only cut my hair exactly as I like it with minimal direction from me, but also got me in and out of the chair in under 20 minutes. She told me she’s been cutting hair for 29 years, and her expertise definitely shows. She was also personable, kind, and had a calm, warm demeanor, which made me very relaxed throughout the experience. I’m so excited for my fresh cut and will definitely return to this location for future cuts—hopefully in Kathy’s chair!

Always get an Awesome cut from my favorite stylist, Missy! I’ve tried a bunch of others and until Missy leaves, I won’t let any of the others cut my hair.

I’ve had many visits to the Belle Hollow Great Clips and have found staff, and especially management, to be professional and skilled. Sure there have been a couple of times it wasn’t perfect but those times were addressed and made right which is all I could ask for.
I have a couple favorite people who have been there longer times but I give the “new” people their chances and it’s gone just as well. I’ll keep going there cuz I trust this location to do what they need to satisfy their customers.
