- ARAnnette Di Re1 day ago1.0Nasty, lazy employees. Went there Christmas eve, they had 3 hair dressers and all they did is talk, waste time and tell us even through we checked in online and waited 1.4 hrs, they were closing in an hour and if they didn't finish with just 2 other customers, then oh well they are closing! The woman hairdresser was still sick from the flu and was coughing all over the place. All my son needed was a 10 minute haircut ! I left, won't go back!
- JSJared SantisiDec 31, 20251.0Checked in online, waited an hour an half to go (even though the time was 64 minutes - but understand that it is just an estimate) only for us to get there when we are told and they say they are closing….what a joke.
- JRjustin rissoNov 14, 20255.0People often have this misperception of what a Great Clips is, but as someone who had tried SO MANY different kids haircut salons this is by and far the best place we've been. My daughters eyes light up whenever we say we are going to see her favorite hair tech, Stephanie. She even brings her own special hair clips and ties/bows for my daughter when she knows we are coming. Great Clips. More than just a big brand, now a core memory :)
- ALAditya LalOct 4, 20251.0I online signed in my wife using her phone number but when we get here she was under my phone number, I don’t know how. The lady at the counter was extremely rude while checking in; it was the worst experience we even had at Great Clips.
