    I came in and showed them two reference photos of myself, on top of explaining that I wanted my curtain bangs to frame the curve of my cheek coming to a point closer to my jawline below my chin... The first stylist did the exact OPPOSITE and just immediately failed, so they sent me over to a second stylist to fix it. Only this one just cuts the backwards bangs straight across my upper cheek on either side of my face to leave me looking like I have some overgrown mullet. I have tried parting my hair to different sides, pulling it back, and even pinning it back, and nothing has helped improve this horrible thing that they have done to me. If you value your hair at all then please STAY AWAY.

    Had my hair cut this morning and it turned out great, as usual. I have been using Great Clips for years and I've had no complaints. I especially like that they occasionally send out coupons. I can not remember the name of the lady who did mine today but she was very nice and listened to exactly what I wanted.

    Took my niece here and the first 2 times were great! This time, however, not so much! I've never seen such a botched cut in my life! She was supposed to have curtain bangs and layers in the rest. She ended up witb bangs cut straight across (which were crooked as a dogs hind leg) and the layers were AWFUL! I had to taker her to another salon the next day and to fix it, they had to cut 2 inches off the length! Needless to say, my niece was devastated, but luckily her hair grows super fast! I don't think I'll go back to great clips again anytime soon.
