Brenda at Great Clips was superb! Was very thorough and in-depth and asked all the right questions regarding what I wanted. Brenda fixed what another place had done! Will certainly be coming here next time I'm in El Paso.

Great Clips always delivers quick, friendly, and professional service! The check-in app makes it super easy to save time, and the stylists really listen to what you want. My haircut came out exactly right, and the prices are very reasonable compared to other places. The shop is clean, welcoming, and efficient, perfect if you’re busy but still want a fresh, sharp look. Definitely my go-to spot for haircuts!

This place is hit or miss. I will say they need to test a persons ability to do a mid fade and high fade before hiring them. I just got my haircut by an inexperienced person and it looks probably the worst I’ve had here. Again it’s hit or miss. I like to be nice and still give tips and not complain. Please evaluate your employees before hiring. This is a military base and they should be able at a minimum supply a military cut service. Now I got to go fix my hair. Plus overseas is cheaper and they actually use razor blades for “skin” mid fade. this isn’t a direct reflection of this particular person. I either give one star or five star reviews and it’s based over a long period of time. I’ve been getting haircuts here for two years every two to three weeks. I will say however, she did not brush the hair off me. I was picking the chunks off my forehead right in front of her.
Mens, womens, kids and senior haircuts as well as bang, neck and beard trims. Other haircare services include shampoo, blow dry, or hair styling such as an updo. Select salons offer perm services.
