I've gotten my hair cut a few times at this location. Check in online and get there when your time is almost ready. My stylist was Sue, she was super professional and you could tell she had been cutting hair a long time. Left me confident in her ability and she quickly got me feeling great about my new cut.

I have nothing but good things to say about this Great Clips on Centre. The store is wheelchair accessible. They will cut hair from the wheelchair and were even able to remove my headrest to cut my hair. The door is a little heavy but someone always comes to assist.

Got a haircut from Jimmy. This was the first haircut after moving to the US. He definitely made it worth it.
He was also fun to talk to.
