    Quinn at Great Clips, Missouri City, is outstanding! She is confident, professional, and always takes the time to listen carefully to what I want. She is pleasant, personable, and makes every visit a positive experience. Most importantly, she consistently does an excellent job with my hair. I receive compliments every time after she cuts it. In fact, the compliments are so consistent that people have commented on my hair while standing behind me on an escalator, and colleagues at work often notice something different right away.

    They'll spend a few moments trying to figure out what's changed before finally saying, "You cut your hair!" Quinn has a way of giving me a haircut that is polished, professional, and noticeable in all the right ways. Perhaps the biggest compliment of all is when my kids tell me they love my hair. They can be brutally honest, so when they notice and compliment a fresh cut, I know Quinn has done an exceptional job. It's clear that she takes pride in her work and genuinely cares about her clients. I highly recommend Quinn to anyone looking for a talented stylist and exceptional customer service. I hope Great Clips can keep her. Thank you, Quinn, for always helping me look and feel my best! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

      This review is for Mary in the University City Blvd location. She is amazing! I've had two haircuts by her so far and I am very happy with her artistry with my hair. She is very talented and skilled. I am a pain in the butt when it comes to wanting what I want and she was very courteous and patient with me. In the end, though, my hair turned out wonderful.

      I would like to give a shout out to my stylist ** who works in the shop at 2 Fairfield Blvd, Azalea Plaza, Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. ** is a very professional and talented stylist who always has a friendly smile and enjoys sharing both of our family experiences with me. In my very first visit to Great Clips, ** gave me a unique style that my wife and family absolutely loved. I even received compliments from my coworkers at the office. I have been going to Kerry for several years now and she consistently delivers a quality haircut along with a pleasant smile.

      Great Clips Harvest Square Harvest Al. Sharon is the worst! I asked for a shoulder length cut. My hair was third down my back. Discussed and showed her a picture of what I wanted. Oh, yes I can do that. She paid no attention to what she was doing. Talked the whole time to her friend next to her about her son going to Japan and her husband trying to save for a trip to Paris. I tried to ask questions and was basically ignored. By the time she finished I had a very short and uneven (longer on right side) looks like a very rough Buster Brown cut but a lot worse. Supposed to be a shoulder length bob cut. Just short of a man's cut. She gave me very dirty hand mirror, spun me around, said here's the back. My hair is very wet, couldn't see anything. Asked her to dry my hair so I could see my layers. She gave me a nasty look, then dug her nails into my scalp when drying.

      My hair is so short, uneven and embarrassing. So ashamed to go out. It was also supposed to be able to blow it out and go. She butchered me!! She has totally humiliated me. I'm so ashamed of the way I look!! There's no reason or excuse for her doing this. She is a very shameless, shallow and sorry individual. How could she do this to someone. She is not fit to be called a beautician or stylist. She deserves a zero not a one. She is not fit and should be fired!!

      I took a photo of a pixie cut that was 1-2 inches on the sides and a soft look and landed up with a buzz cut. Linda was not RATING ZERO. interested in my photo and used the clipper and totally shaved the sides. She left a flip over on top. Needless to say I had to have it fixed!! I will NEVER go back there.

      My son went to get a low fade hairstyle and came out looking bald. After repeatedly trying kindly to stop the stylist, I was told to “let him finish” and in return he completely ignored and messed up the cut. I am extremely disappointed with this service and ridiculous staff and place. You guys are terrible. If I could give you guys 0 stars I would.

      Checked in online at Great Clips, Lafayette Center 63011. Got there, was checked in and told, "I'm going to get something to drink and then I'll get you". She comes back, checks in someone else and without one word to me tells him he's next. I guess lying to your face is standard practice at this location. Will never go back and neither will anyone in my family.

      Please, please communicate with your stylist exactly what you want for your haircut. Even if you show a picture, it will not be enough to help. Stylist should be asking detail questions too. I have a teenage boy crying over his haircut, again, that was cut too short. The stylist skills vary and not consistent. The staff are friendly but that is not a good enough reason to go back. We have learned this lesson the hard way, with heartache.

      Even with a sheet stating how I desired my cut, then verbal instructions to leave sides halfway over my ears, the cutter destroyed the sides by cutting above the ear. Haven't had it cut that short since high school, that was 60 years ago! Extremely disappointed!!! Obviously, once cut off...I guess is 3 months it will grow back.

      After my original Great Clips store was unable to cut a simple bob, I switched to another Great Clips in town. At first the service was good, but as older workers were replaced over the years with newer stylist, their method of cutting changed to a sight-based only cut with no clips to separate segments and insufficient wetting. This quicker method of cutting left straggly pieces and basically looked like a cheap haircut.

      Great Clips at Depew should be named "WORST CLIP." The staff is rude, ill-mannered and impolite. Their customer service is pathetic, they didn't not provide us with hot towels when it was included in the service. The lady trimming my hair said, "I think you have been here before, I remember faces and not names, I remember your 4 year old son's SAD face!!" I showed her the picture of the haircut I wanted, which was a simple U-shaped cut, which she couldn't do. My 50 dollars got wasted.

      I have been going to the Great Clips located in Winter Haven, Fl on Cypress Gardens Blvd. for almost a year now. Brittany is the stylist that has cut my hair each time, and she is absolutely the best. She is able to cut my bob hairdo to perfection. I greatly appreciate her. I don't mean any disrespect to the other stylist, it's just that Brittany listened to me and went with it. I ask for her each time I go there.

      I have been a customer off and on for 20 years. Close to home. Have profile in system with self, brother, mom and aunt. My hair is straight and I only needed an inch cut all the way around. Maybe 10 minutes in the chair. I had an online $9.99 coupon and was told it wasn’t for that location. I sat down and frantically searched for a coupon that worked and every time was told it was either expired or not for that location. They never even offered to assist. They told me that I should have received coupon in mail which I did not. 10 minutes in chair, blunt cut cost me $20 including tip (I always tip even if service is sub par). I think that it is sad that a beard trim is half the cost that I paid. Unfortunately after Roman retired the service does not meet expectation. I will not be going back.

      I'm in my 80s so you can imagine how many cuts I've had, some good, some bad, but mostly in the middle. However, a couple of days ago I made the BIG mistake of trying "Great Clips" on 13435 S McCall and I came out with the ABSOLUTE WORST butchering I have ever had. I figured I was in trouble when I saw the barber who looked sour and grouchy. The entire cut took less than 5 minutes and left me looking like a porcupine. I've been wearing a hat ever since. If you go here you'll wish you hadn't.

      Today was the last visit; brought my 5yr old son to this establishment 6 or 7 times and was never greeted with a warm welcoming, despite the employees saying “welcome to Great Clips” as you walk through the door. And today we were ignored by the usual lady who cut my son’s hair and met with annoyance by another employee. She was rude and unkind demanding my son sit by himself & take his jacket off, not even knowing if he had any social/mental or physical impairments, and made it known she did not cater to children. We left, never to return, as this is not a good environment for kids.

      I went in as usual to get a haircut and normally have a coupon but was having trouble finding it. I expressed to the lady I was having trouble finding my coupon and she stated that their is a current $9.99 coupon. I assumed she would tell me how to obtain it but she just stood there not offering to help me figure out where online I could get the $9.99 coupon. I spent about 5 minutes researching in my phone trying to find it when I eventually found a $9.99 coupon. She looks at the coupon and in a nasty voice says that's not the right coupon. After her rudeness I decided to not get a haircut which didn't bother her as she proceeded to go sit down. A few days later I found a $2 off coupon and went back and to my surprise she was the only available stylist so I had no choice but to let her cut my hair. My plan was not to use her because of her previous rudeness but I decided to let her cut my hair and in return I didn't leave her a tip!

      I have been going to great clips. Went in for a cut and trim as I usually do, however; I got a woman who used a #5 blade and went to do it all over my hair. Stopped her and asked what she was doing and was told notes said #5 guide and she was doing that. I told her that was for back and scissor cut for the rest. She laughed and told me she was just following what was in notes. Did not stop with clippers, then tried to clean it up. Hair does not look good at all, as she did a man's cut. Guess she must have thought I was someone she did not like. Will be calling ahead from now on to see if my hair dresser is there from now on. Will not go anywhere with my male hair cut.

      This particular Great Clips, W. Cheyenne Ave., Las Vegas, has had spotty service for years. For quite awhile now when you go online to set up a time (especially when they just open), they say not available for 5 minutes, then once accepting sign ins you find out it's booked out 45 minutes+. This time I got a time with 4 people ahead of me and approx. 30 minute wait time -- that was fine with me. I arrived about 5 minutes ahead of my projected time and found out that the wait time was now 80 minutes and that I was now #8 on the wait list. So based upon about 15 minutes for a haircut (2 barbers were in the shop), 7 people were placed ahead of me, after my initial booking. Terrible booking system & no apology from the staff person.
