Please give me MJ’s contact info he was the only one that could actually follow directions. Every time I go here I am risking my hair being absolutely destroyed but MJ actually listened and knew what he was doing. Anyone who’s over 45 doesn’t need to be cutting hair apparently.

I took my son in to get a bald fade and Katrina did a terrible job! It’s not blended and I ended up having to spend more money to take him somewhere else to get it fixed. I had taken him there before right before Christmas and Richard cut his hair and it was exactly what I asked for! Is there a way I can get Richard’s schedule so I can book directly and don’t have to go through this again?

We've been coming to this location for about a year now usually there's no issues but yesterday that changed when the 2 gentleman working there couldnt cut mine or my 2 year old sons hair. I was told by the only one who would speak to me that oh neither one of us feel comfortable cutting a child's hair, he doesn't cut woman's hair, and I cant cut a "stacked bob" like what? I've never heard such unprofessionalism in my life. He managed to cut my husband's hair which ended up being choppy and having to be fixed at the north location where J and Kelly not only fixed his hair but cut mine and our sons hair with no issues what so ever and did an amazing job! Thankfully Kelly told us they are moving to that location in April which is wonderful because we get our haircuts before our groceries at HEB! Thank you J and Kelly for coming through and reminding me why I love great clips you ladies rock! For you other fellows need to find another profession!

went in this morning and was glad to see Richie (my fav and is the only one to get my hair right the way I want it) was gonna cut my hair. Another young Hispanic male was there and was really nice and polite. I was relieved when I saw that the store mgr and Katrina were not there, they are just way too loud. And I can never truly enjoy my experience without having my conversations overflowing from thier conversations but it’s okay. Overall I’m happy with my expierence today with both your male stylist. - THEYRE AMAZING. KEEP THEMMM!!!! Hard to find good work nowadays especially talented ones.
