I went to the Pentagon Row location and honestly, this was the worst haircut I’ve ever had in my life. The person who cut my hair finished in about 3 minutes. it felt like she was rushing through it just to move on to the next customer.
Do these employees receive any kind of proper training? Because I could have done a better job myself. The cut is uneven and looks terrible, and I honestly don’t even know how to fix it at this point.
On top of that, when I got home I had to clean myself up because they didn’t even bother to properly remove the loose hair from my clothes and body.
I’m attaching photos so you can see how bad it is. I strongly recommend that no one go to this place.

Quick & great! Did a really great military crew cut, he looked great. So glad they were open just a bit longer than most other shops.

If I could give a lower score I would. Showed the guy what I wanted and he did the opposite. Might as well have been a buzz cut. I’m so unbelievably mad. Do not go here

Dear women of the community: please for the sake of all the pictures you will take in the future and moments of getting ready, invest in a salon instead of Great Clips. For I must warn you: the clipping will not be great. I came to this establishment with normal, nay low expectations. How good could a $23 cut be after all in a world where salon cuts cost upwards of $50 for the average woman with mid length hair? Well, I have left with dismal expectations. I should’ve run away when I noticed only men were getting cuts, but I was lured by the thought of defying my expectations. I was asked what I wanted and I requested to my female (👀) stylist that I wanted to simply get layers. She asked if she could trim lightly. I said sure, yes but lightly. Not only did she savagely cut off three to four inches, but each yank of my hair from one side to another to violently clip felt like Genghis Khan pillaging an innocent village. I now look like one of the 90s heartthrob brothers in the band Hanson. I know what you’re thinking: why the hell would you put so much faith in Great Clips and not just go to a salon for women? Are you a fool? I am only human. In a war-ravaged world with ever increasing prices, can’t a woman seek to salvage her faith and place some trust in Great Clips? I was wrong.
Men of the community: eh you’ll be fine! My husband loved his cut.
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.
