Britt is the best at this location. I live in Southport and come all the way to Long Leaf for Britt to cut my hair. I will wait in line for her to cut my hair.

Usually I don’t come to this great clips, but I did today. I normally don’t even leave reviews. The lady that cut my hair, I can’t remember her name I think she is the manager, on the way she was multitasking. My notes weren’t accurate. She did the spew of what was on the ticket. I told her that wasn’t the hair cut I wanted. She actually listen to everything I said, I wasn’t sure about how much I wanted off. She gave me a suggestion on what she would do, so I trusted her judgment. My hair cut hasn’t looked this good in years! I’ll be staying with long leaf!

Worst haircut I’ve ever had at great clips! My hair is so short you can see my scalp! I even showed her pictures of the length I wanted. It is so short I have to wear my wig until it grows out!
