- ARAkshay Venkata RamaniFeb 10, 20262.0Poor experience overall, you pay for what you get. Inexperienced professionals who mess up your hair and leave you with uneven leveling. They just blazed the trimmers all over my hair and didn't even bother to cut it properly using scissors.
- BGBrandon GarnreiterJan 14, 20265.0Kim did an exceptional job! Took my request from my normal, and absolutely delivered. Thank you for the wonderful work Kim and see you soon!
- AKAddeth KimJan 8, 20261.0I'm really disappointed right now. It's not my kids' first time at Great Clips, and it's frustrating to see the haircuts.I told her multiple times that the hair was uneven on both sides, and I showed her the haircut my son wanted. It was completely different from the haircut he got, and instead of fixing it, she made it even worse.haircut was a ball cut, which is incredibly annoying. I understand there are many customers waiting, but the stylist seemed to keep going back and forth, resulting in a poor haircut. I'm not happy with the outcome.
- ALAnn LokeyJan 7, 20265.0Tho(“Toe”) on Mercer Island Great clips has cut my hair numerous times. I have never had a better haircut. I wish I could give her 6 stars. She is very skilled and takes time to get it right. She cuts it exactly what I want.
- COConner OgdonDec 28, 20255.0Kim was very kind and I enjoyed getting my haircut from her. I would definitely go back to her again and I really liked my haircut!
