- GTGabe Truesdail5 days ago5.0Stephani was great and was super gentle with my curly hair. Definitely will be going back !
- ARAlli R.Feb 7, 20265.0I’ve been going to this Great Clips for over a year now and have had the best haircuts of my life. The employees here clearly love what they do, even on wildly busy weekend days.
- SSSy SaqfelhaitFeb 1, 20265.0Stephanie is absolutely amazing. She’s been cutting my hair for four years now and she’s not only the best at what she does but she’s also kind and professional. Sometimes I’ll have to wait over an hour to get my haircut by Her, but it’s totally worth it. You guys have a rockstar for an employee.
