Victoria was awful. She was acting like a high school girl while cutting my hair. She was talking constantly with the other stylists and asking for a candy bar at the Walgreens down the street. She was looking at pictures on the other stylists phone and constantly stepping away from me. She was not paying attention at all and as a result I was constantly having to redirect her and have her redo parts of my hair. I go to this location all the time and She was the absolute worst stylist I have ever had at a great clips location. I will make sure Victoria never cuts my hair again

I asked for a medium skin fade and got a high and tight. I’m glad they employ the blind in their staff. Thanks for the messed up haircut guys!

I've been going there for years today we went to the fountain location Marlene cut my son's hair always a good experience with her and she always does a great job. However the stylist that cut my husband's hair was very unprofessional. I couldn't believe it she was flirting with my husband.

I've gone twice and each time they cut my hair uneven . the second time i went my stylist commented negatively about how my hair was cut previously not knowing that i went to that same exact place for my previous hair cut . the first time i went a beginner stylist was cutting my hair ,which is fine everyone needs practice but as she was cutting my hair a senior stylist walked by and told her " you got this !" .I understand it was to motivate her but no one wants to hear that while getting their hair cut .
