- TGThomas Goff5 days ago5.0They're the best Great Clips in the Metro, very friendly
- MSMasanori SonoNov 15, 20255.0I was very satisfied with every step of having a hair cut including making an online appointment, almost no waiting time (this time), the way I was treated (greetings, hair cut job) by a hair stylist.
- KTKathy TillmanNov 6, 20251.0If you have hair stylists training you need to state that! They absolutely wrecked my hair. Went in for a trim and face frame with hair half way down my back and walked out in tears with hair almost to my shoulders. Completely chopped up. Some parts are so short I can even put it in a ponytail. I immediately had to go spend another $60 at another stylist to try and salvage it. My hair was my everything and it's completely destroyed. DO NOT GO HERE if you need anything more then a military cut. WHY WOULD YOU NOT WARN PEOPLE YOU HAVE STYLIST TRAINING!?! If I wanted to be a hair dummy I would have went to a school. I can't express enough how completely mortified I am. I can't stop crying and can't even look in the mirror.
- GUGoogle UserNov 4, 20252.0Every time I go I usually tip $10 plus. Today I only was only able to pay cash and was not able to choose my custom amount to tip. So I forgot to add the tip. The lady goes “learn how to tip” I wanted to go give her the tip but she walked away. Otherwise great people
