I got the most chaotic haircut here. First, I was instructed to sit in a chair that was filled with the previous customer's hair and black drape. Once I sat down, the hair stylist began brushing my hair with a brush filled with other people's hair that she used on the previous customers and was just sitting in her station. She then proceeded to cut my hair to my shoulders in a straight line. She asked if I wanted layers and I said yes, so she picked up seemingly random pieces and cut them in a straight line. The whole cut look less than 3 minutes. I'm not overly precious about my hair and left with a pretty uneven weird cut but I'll live. Won't be back to this location though.

Unprofessional behavior.
I was followed outside and confronted about tipping, despite the fact that I did leave a tip.
Tipping is optional, and being pressured for more made the experience uncomfortable.

Our family regularly goes to Great Clips and have great experiences. This location fell far short- I went to get my 4 year old daughter a haircut, arrived at 10:15, and found the location closed with no explanation or answered phones. I tried back later and it was open, with one stylist finishing up a customer. She was the only one working in the salon. After checking out the other guest, during which she pressured her for a tip and complained she hadn’t gotten one, she took my daughter back. She didn’t sweep up the hair she had just cut, or clean up at all. She spoke almost o words to us the whole time, and cut the hair shorter than I had requested, but it was too late by then to address. Once I got home, I realized it was a pretty bad and uneven cut. Maybe it’s because she didn’t ask me about her part, but I’m still finding pieces that need evening out a week later. All that to say, I’m displeased and won’t be trying this location again.
