- PFPaul FrysNov 6, 20255.0Haven’t had a haircut at a barber or salon in 34 years Wife has always been there for me until divorce Those ladies were the nicest anyone could ask for. Clean curtious and listened to me. I don’t remember her name the blonde I gave her a great tip and will return Thanks ladies
- SLSuzie LurieOct 24, 20254.0I didn’t actually go to great clips, but my sister-in-law did and they did a great job on her haircut compared to what she was getting before hand with someone else.
- JWJames WebbOct 21, 20255.0Linda is the best hairstylist. I have been going to her for years. She remembers details about conversations we’ve had and really cares about her customers! She should be running the place as she is constantly working with other customers and other staff. She always goes above and beyond!
- SRsummer runaOct 10, 20255.0Michelle is the absolute BEST! All the ladies there are super wonderful and so kind. I had a hairstylist cancel on me and they all had my back! So happy with my haircut.
- BTBret TaylorSep 17, 20253.0Watch out for the heafty tip prompt. Used online app. Nice people working there. Clean and professional. Gone twice and got good cuts both times (aka my wife was happy). However, I am so tired of forced tipping, and this one is out of hand. After a $20 cut the screen suggests $5, $7, and $10!!! When 20% is considered normal (look it up). I'm upset the manager set the amount to guilt you into a heafty tip. Sure I can choose "other", but instead I may just choose another place for my business. A place that pays their employees well and doesn't expect a large tip to make up for their apparent cheapness.
