It's been years since I'd been in a great clips. Back when it was 6.99. Now it's $20-23. That's just the increased cost of things now. Plus $5 tip. Reviews I thought it was for women n kids but only men were getting their hair cut. No recent photos but reviews recently seemed great. The bad: Asked if the example photos we had were possibly for my daughter's hair type. Thick. Straight. And added we don't have curling irons or any products. Is this an easy style? Was told Yes and that she could do it. Ok great so she got started. Again very nice ladies working here. After finished my daughter covered in hair I was a bit surprised how the cut looked. I asked if there's something we need to know. Advice on how to obtain the example look. She responded well her hair is just so thick. As if to say no. I asked if the starting hair cut was a problem, she said no, only one small hidden area was too short but she said it was hidden so not an issue. So I'm not sure why she cut her hair so short and boxy. She thinned it a little. But if this cut isn't possible with thick hair, a simple Not recommended would have been nice instead of yes then attempt then act like it's great and when I ask about getting it to look like the example then say oh it's just too thick. No other suggestions on how to fix it or alternative cuts, just nada. Also no clean up of the hair at all, I remember being brushed off a bit after cuts and the place we use to go always cleaned up the hair. There was sooo much hair on my daughter's shirt n face. We cleaned her off in the parking lot. I still tipped 25% because again, she was nice and can cut better than we can and it's just rough financially for everyone, so I tip. Not sure how to fix this. We stink at being assertive so my daughter just said "it's fine." We spent the evening watching tutorials on how to fix it but seems growing it back out and maybe asking a few places their options for her hair type is the best solution. Not a repeat.

Just a few min wait for a cut.

My barber wasn't in town this past weekend and I was in desperate need of a haircut. One of my buddies recommended the 96 shop so I decided to give them a shot and I was not disappointed at all! These guys welcome you in with a drink and they even have a Nintendo that you can play while you wait. Awesome people and awesome vibes. I highly recommend this shop if you're looking for a quality cut. Thank you guys for the great experience! read more

Should've written this review alot earlier but there's no time like the present. I got my Haircut here on February 20 and it's hands down the best haircut I've received. Very professional and most of all they are very good at what they do. I also love the fact that they offer refreshments to their customers, it's very nice to see that because most parlors won't even offer that. Would highly recommend this Parlor to everyone. read more
