- RSRaul SaldanaSep 26, 20255.0Gaby is hands down the best!!!! Only reason why I go back awesome at her job and always a smile and very happy greeting.
- KCkevin chaneySep 22, 20253.0Mid cuts the last few times I’ve gone. It’s extremely important to note that Great Clips is always a gamble unless you manage to stick with a good barber, and so far I haven’t found one here. What I have found are the ones I definitely don’t want again. It’s frustrating to spend both time and money only to walk away with a haircut that I either need to fix myself or wait weeks to grow out. Even worse, I often find myself having to coach a licensed professional step by step on how to cut my hair, which shouldn’t be the case. Consistency and skill matter a lot in something as personal as a haircut, and unfortunately I haven’t had that experience here. Until the quality improves or I can find a reliable barber within the shop, I’ll probably be looking elsewhere.
- SRSamuel RuizSep 22, 20255.0Best flat top by Ms Gabby
- APArthur PerezSep 12, 20251.0I was checking ked in quickly although the past two times I have gone,my cut have been almost unfinished. The stylist has not been trimming around my ears nor the base of my neck. Previously she had done the same thing but on one side only. I came home and had my wife finish the jobs twice with clippers at home.
- GGGabriela GuerreroAug 15, 20251.0Worst experience with cutting my hair. I went to 5601 Bandera Rd, Ste 102. The stylist was Lupita Lorenzo & GM was Natalie. Lupita completely messed up my hair and the Gm was no help either went I went today. I did get my rerun back but didn’t give me the tip back so I actually went back to get the tip back because they were no help at all. I was literally crying worst job ever. I wish I could upload pictures of how bad my hair was left. Please ladies do your research and try to go to the best place you can go. Because these people don’t care. 2 years of trying to grow my hair for someone to messed it up. And GM not care enough. I wouldn’t even give it 1 star.
