- CMChristina M4 days ago1.0Asked for my bangs to be on my eyebrow. Straight across and then to frame the face. Didn't wet the bangs down or ask what my texture was like when dry. Just started hacking. Took about 6 inches off some of the layers I have up front. This was the worst haircut ive had. Would've been better off hacking my own hair with rusty scissors
- KKKielle6 days ago5.0I’ve been in a few locations is Norfolk/VA beach but Sheema from the Tidewater location has been the most efficient and her 27 years of hair-cutting shows. It was not busy at the time but nevertheless, I was very impressed and satisfied, and I might have found my regular location. Will surely come back!
- MAMissy Debbie AlbuquerqueOct 9, 20255.0⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars I had a great experience at Great Clips yesterday! The stylist who cut my hair was extremely professional and clearly very experienced. She took the time and care to make sure my haircut turned out perfect — and it really did! I could tell she put genuine effort into her work, and I truly appreciated that. Congratulations dear!
