- SSSuzanne3 days ago5.0I love this Great Clips location because of Mandy. She always does an absolutely perfect job, & is always thoughtful about making sure to not cut too much off right away. She's a really gifted hairstylist, and is very knowledgeable about the hair products that can be helpful. I'm so happy with the new shorter hairstyle that she was able to give me on the 19th, & hope that she stays at this location, because it's really difficult to find truly gifted hairstylists these days.
- RBRussell BuchholzSep 25, 20253.0The service was great and the haircut is great however I will never come here again and this is the reason why. I walked in told the stylist Alyssa that I had a coupon but I was confused as to why it said that I could only use it at Chicago land locations seeing as I don't live in Chicago and I've never done any business down in Chicago she said don't worry about it and proceeded to cut my hair ,when I was paying she said I couldn't use the coupon because it was from Chicago after I had already told her that when I checked in. So she proceeded to charge me full price. I don't appreciate being lied to and it's sad because I really like this place
- SVShawn VAug 20, 20255.0Stopped by Great Clips in South Milwaukee as my regular location was closed for remodeling. Maria did an excellent job and I’d go there again if it wasn’t a twelve minute further drive!
- LMLori MillenAug 14, 20255.0Been getting my hair cut at this location for about 25 years. At least 2 long time cutters that have cut my hair on many occasions it is always spot on and makes me feel 100% when I am done!
