Great Clips Reviews 

8720 W. 135th Street in Overland Park, KS 66221 - If I could give 0 stars I would. - I've been a long time Great Clips customer for many years. Once in a while the online check in system goes down in a glitch. At 1:30 I tried checking in online for the the location I listed above. It stated there was an hour wait and I had no problems with that; but again, the online check in system was not working. It said walk-ins welcome. This has happened with other locations and I've never had a problem. They have always been apologetic and accommodating. At 2:30, I enter the store. No one was in there. No one in the stylist chairs and no one waiting. I have a picture on my phone that shows this location open till 5:00. They refused to accommodate me. They said they couldn't do anything for me if I did not check in online. I stated the obvious that no one was there and there are three stylists here playing on their phones in the back. I stated check me in now and we can do now or later. They then stated that they were short staffed and closing at 4:00 today instead of 5:00. They again refused to accommodate me. I started this process at 1:30 if you remember this at the beginning. Lastly, I am a middle aged man with no much hair left. It's about a 5-10 minute cut. This was by far one of the worst customer experiences I have ever experienced in my 55 years. Bottom line here is that no one at this location wanted to work. They don't want to work and just collect their hourly pay. The work ethic and morals I experienced today at this particular location is beyond poor; it's pathetic. Any business that makes excuses, lies, and speaks down to people who just want a simple haircut doesn't deserve to be in business and those types of people don't deserve jobs!

One of the worst hair cuts I have ever received. Since the whole beauty shop was waiting on the manager to cut their hair, I told the manager if she could direct one of her people on how to cut my hair I would give them a chance. First of all she hurried thru the cut. Cut off a lot more than I wanted and did not even check to see if the cut was even. NEVER saw a layered undercut done the way she cut it. I can tell I will be fighting with my hair the next 2 months until I get my hair cut again. Plus, when I got home there was one obvious spot of hair in the back that was longer than the rest. So I had to even it out myself.

Although, you can get a good price on hair cuts at Great Clips I am going to look for another shop. I will definitely pay more to get a quality hair cut where I can make an appointment.

The stylist did not listen to my intentions on my trimming and cut off way too much from my instructions. I left before she was done.
She just cut way too short and now I'll have to go months to grow it back.
I will not go back

My recent visit to the Great Clips on Bankhead Hwy in Carrollton, GA, was nothing short of a complete disaster and an utterly disrespectful experience. I brought my biracial grandson in for a haircut, specifically requesting a "taper fade," a style explicitly shown on the Great Clips corporate website as an offered service.

To my shock and dismay, the stylist I initially encountered was incredibly rude and dismissive. She repeatedly and curtly informed me that "they were not barbers, but cosmetologists," despite the fact that "taper fade" is a standard haircut widely offered by salons and, again, prominently displayed on the Great Clips website. When I pointed out that the website clearly shows this cut, she retorted that "the website comes from corporate and she could not do a taper fade." This is utterly unacceptable. If a service is advertised on your official website, your stylists should be trained and capable of performing it.

Her demeanor was beyond disrespectful. Instead of attempting to find a solution or explain the situation professionally, she became increasingly agitated, then rudely walked away, only to return with another stylist to cut my grandson's hair. The entire interaction was demeaning and left me feeling utterly disgusted.

This experience highlights a severe disconnect between what Great Clips advertises and what this particular location is willing or able to deliver. If the Bankhead Hwy Carrollton GA location cannot perform haircuts listed on the corporate website, then those pictures should be removed, as they are clearly misleading.

The initial stylist's behavior was completely unprofessional and demonstrated a severe lack of customer service skills. She is in desperate need of additional training on how to interact with customers respectfully and how to manage expectations when a requested service may not be available or within their skillset. This level of disrespect is completely unacceptable in any service industry.

I strongly advise anyone considering a haircut at this Great Clips location to go elsewhere. The misleading advertising and the rude, untrained staff make this a truly terrible place for a haircut. Save yourself the frustration and find a salon that actually values its customers and delivers on its advertised services.

Absolutely Devastated by My Haircut Experience
I’ve been to this Great Clips location several times before and had decent experiences, but my most recent visit was a complete nightmare. I came in requesting a long inverted bob — a cut I’ve had done here in the past — and I made it very clear to the stylist that I do not like short hair. I even emphasized that short hair makes me uncomfortable, that I wouldn’t know what to do with it, and that I would cry if it was cut too short. I showed him a photo, explained that I needed the front to stay longer, and reminded him that my naturally curly hair shrinks when dry. He acknowledged all of this — and then proceeded to ignore everything I said.
He made the first cut, which was already shorter than I wanted. I was surprised and told him not to go any shorter. Despite this, he kept cutting. By the end, my hair — which was previously past my shoulders — was hacked into something completely unrecognizable. The back is maybe two inches long, and the front barely reaches my ears. It’s the worst haircut I’ve ever received in my life.
To make matters worse, I reached out to Great Clips customer service, who told me the franchise owner would contact me. It’s been over a week, and I haven’t heard a single word. I can't even tie my hair back to hide it — I’m genuinely embarrassed to leave the house.
I would never recommend this location — or any Great Clips — to anyone who values being listened to, respected, or walking away with a haircut that doesn't make you cry. This experience has left me humiliated and deeply disappointed.

Great Clips, 1680 Washington Rd Ste 2, Pittsburgh, PA 15241 I am extremely pleased with the haircut I received at this location, which I consider to be the best I have received in the US to date. The service was affordable, and the scalp massage provided during the hair wash was a wonderful bonus. I will certainly be returning to this salon.

Just got a haircut from this location and I’m honestly shocked at how disrespectful the stylist was. I came in with a smile, I just wanted a basic cut, and from the second I walked in, the energy was off.

The woman cutting my hair (Didn’t catch her name) had an attitude for no reason. She asked when I last came in, I said “about a month ago.” She checks the system and immediately goes, “It says a month and a half ago. You said one month,” in this condescending tone like she caught me lying. Like… really? Who cares?

Then she asks if I want to trim the beard, and I misheard her because her accent was thick — and instead of calmly repeating herself, she snaps, “NO, that’s not what I said!” Like I’m bothering her by existing. At this point I’m sitting there thinking, what did I do to this lady?

Then when I politely ask if she can cut the sides shorter, she gets defensive again and hits me with the, “I asked you in the beginning what you wanted and you said you wanted your cut like last time” I was stunned. I even asked her, “Is that a problem?” She just coldly says “no” and keeps cutting like she was forced to be there.

The whole time, her attitude was just nasty. I promise you, I was not being a Karen, this was completely unnecessary, IDK what I did to this woman. Very snarky and obnoxious. Not one smile. No sense of professionalism. Just cold, rude, and irritated by everything. And the worst part? The haircut was AWFUL. Uneven, rushed, and not at all what I asked for. I didn’t even bother asking her to fix it. I just wanted to get out of the chair and leave.

If this is the kind of experience you get here, I’ll never be back. Great Clips seriously needs to screen who they’re hiring. There’s no reason for a paying customer to be treated like an inconvenience. Absolutely unacceptable. Honestly, I want my money back.

I went to the Great Clips location on Mira Mesa blvd. I am a Black Caregiver I took my client to get her hair done. The lady looked at me and I knew it was a problem. I ask her for a bob cut that has the name bixie cut on the website. She says I don't know what your talking about we denying service because your aggressive. Text book racist comment when you just don't want my kind in your store. I kindly left and came to the Scripps ranch location and my client and I were welcomed and serviced. I could have caused a scene but it won't stop businesses from being racist. Instead im letting the world know this location is only for certain people so no one else has to walk out a business crying feeling less than human. I told the lady at the location that served us what happened and she started to tear up. Im so grateful someone cared. My first and last experience at a great clips.

Well, I went to this business for an undercut, now I did not have much to cut it was already very short just needed it to be clean up. Now after I was done went to paid and stylist told me $20, and I was like what $20 for something that should have been $8. Oh I was pissed. So I thought to call customer service and this person had the audacity to for hair cut is $20, and I like lady it was an undercut and barely any hair to begin with. I felt so angry 😡 that I want to tell my story about being over charged for something so very Very short and should have been just $8 for. I never NEVER to do business with them again. Today was 1st and the last for me.

Deeply unsatisfied with the quality of work. Two lazy stylists with no one else in the building,not courteous.Bad customer service.I have had better work done at lower prices.They need to know that rolling their eyes at a customer thinking the latter wont notice, wont get them more business.The stylist refused to do what I wanted and outright stated that she had spent enough time on me even though there were no other customers. Wont recommend the one at 7505 E 35th Ave Ste 320, Denver,CO to anyone looking forward to relax and have quality work done.Certainly not going back there ever again or to any other Great Clips! Would give zero stars if I could.

It was so hot in there the lady cutting my hair was sweating. Great clips at green acres in athens ga

Went to Great Clips a few weeks ago I wanted to say thank you to Mari-Lynn for the great haircut, my first time at this location since I have moved from Milton she made me feel welcome and, very friendly.
Overall great experience will definitely go back.

Caleb did a great job! He was very pleasant and friendly. I enjoyed talking with him and will make sure to have my next haircut when he’s available. Salon #4317 Winston Salem, NC.

They gave me a Chinese hair cut and I wanted a cristiano Ronaldo haircut.

Friendly customer service. Very convenient application for booking appointments. Prices were very reasonable. The only issue is at the application does not correlate with how many people they actually have in the business and can mislead people into how long they can actually expect to wait.

Jamie was very polite, professional and offered many options. She clarified prior to cutting and after cutting showed me and asked if that was enough or if I wanted more trimmed. She offered style and even though I knew the cost was more I decided to go ahead because she made me feel comfortable.

I went to get a haircut and wanted to get a curtain hairstyle. But instead, they gave me a low taper fade. It was so uneven and not what I wanted. So, please bring some new hires.

Carin is as very friendly and helpful! She did a great job on my hair!!! 3rd time and will continue to go!

Great Clips in Arbor Springs in Newnan GA are amazing. Valerie and Beamer are THE BEST! I am thrilled with the customer service and care at Arbor Springs. You will not regret going there. Awesome!

I had a deeply disappointing and discriminatory experience at the Great Clips located at 4030 N Hwy 29, Newnan, GA 30265. This location appears to have a double standard when it comes to the services they offer to Black women.

While they offer perms for Caucasian women, they do not provide equivalent services for Black women. I visited this location seeking a roller set—a basic and common service. Although I brought my own rollers and the stylist was willing to complete the service, the manager told him he could not do my hair. The stylist expressed discomfort, saying he wouldn’t ask me to leave since I was already there, but ultimately, the service was denied.

When I asked the manager why services were being offered to one race and not another, she simply said, “That’s just the policy.” She identified herself as the manager and directed me to customer service. After calling, I was told the owner would contact me. When the owner reached out, I explained the situation. She told me they only offer perms and could not accommodate my needs. She also claimed she would discontinue perms for Caucasian customers entirely. However, when I returned a month later with my mother and son for haircuts, I witnessed a Caucasian customer receiving a perm—clearly contradicting her statement.

This experience was frustrating, hurtful, and discriminatory. It’s clear that Black customers are not treated equally at this location. I will never support this Great Clips again, and I hope they reflect seriously on their policies and practices.
