I called ahead in the morning to see if they had a spot open to de-tangle my hair and thankfully they did. My hair stylist was Macey. She used the Healthy SexyHair Love Oil Moisturizing Oil to de-tangle my hair and then put them into two even Dutch braids. The process was painful and it didn't help that I have a sensitive scalp, but she was able to get out every single knot and I purchased the oil she used in case this ever happens again! One of the stylists mentioned sleeping in braids helps prevent tangles, but I toss and turn, so they fell out..lol oops! I would definitely recommend this location, staff are great and salon is clean! The cost for long style with the de-tangling was just $33, a great price compared to other salons! I'll definitely be returning, my handsome brown eyes also goes here for his haircuts! read more

Chelsea did a great job with my very thick and long hair! I love my new cut. Very easy and quick process, thank you!

I have to say I came in skeptical but left over Joyed! They have a younge man named Alex working and I've actually never had a haircut by a man but he was 10/10 professional & did exactly as I asked!! I wanted a cut but for curly hair it can be difficult to avoid the "triangle" look once said and done. Alex was able to accomplish a wonderful cut without the dammed triangle effect!! Very happy and overall thrilled with my experience read more

Great place for a hair cut. The owner Linh is awesome! Very friendly staff! Glad I found this place!

We were greeted immediately as soon as we walked through the door Friendly staff and very skilled in their craft My husband and I both were more than satisfied with the excellent service and of course our haircuts We highly recommend this place and look forward to our next visit read more

Don't look the pictures they uploaded. They're not professional at all! They just pass their time and making money, that's it.

I have been coming in Great Clips for the last year or so because of the good reviews. Today was just a bit different and I wanted to try out a different haircut than my usual. I wanted a two block haircut which is an undercut with Ice Pick Side Burns and light taper on the back. I showed her an example picture and I trusted her confidence that she is able to at least come close to what I would have imagined. Turns out she wasn't confident enough to tell me that she couldn't do it and felt as if she can just bullshit the trust I have put in her. Below is the picture I wanted my hair to closely resemble but I believe she did a terrible job. It's already hard enough to not be able to see your hair being cut since I need to put my glasses away. I should have said something there and then but I already saw the uncertainty in her face as she knows she didn't do a great job. If you meet a woman named Toni, don't let her cut your hair. Hair is something that will grow back but it still would be nice to be told that if they don't have the necessary skills to cut my hair as I asked, I would rather have waited for another person or looked somewhere else. Now I feel as if I have lost my self esteem due to this quality of service and cut. read more

I went to Great Clips to donate my hair to Wigs for Kids in support of my sister who just lost her hair during her chemo treatment. My stylist, Ashlie, was super-supportive and gentle as she went through the process of first separating my hair into several pony tails, then shaving them off, then giving me the final clean shave. She was generous with hugs and encouragement afterwards, which I really needed at that point. I've had my hair cut there before (for normal cuts), and they always listened to what I wanted. Great stylists with big hearts! read more

The location of this great clips is convenient for me. The staff is friendly and does a good job. I had my hair cut by Kyra today and she did an excellent job. read more

This is one of the better Great Clips in the area hands down. I've been coming here for 4-5 years now and have never had a bad experience. All of the stylists are always super friendly and easy to work with. I used to spend $50 to get a fade at another barber shop and without a doubt I get a better fade here for a fraction of the cost. I wish I could recall her name but the gal with the colored redish pink hair cut my hair today (7/9/23 around 445PM) and did an amazing fade and had a killer personality to chat with during my haircut. Literally all of them are nice to talk to, Toni also gives a really good fade haircut. I always leave this place feeling fresh and good about my haircut read more

Gerdonna Paetz was an amazing stylist to work with my daughter who wanted to donate her hair to Wigs for Kids. She did an awesome job and my daughter was so proud and Gerdonna made her feel so special. Before and after shots! read more

Great experience! The staff was friendly from the moment we walked in. They have experience working with children. Gerdonna was so patient and kind to my child. She was also a skilled stylist! I learned that, with my child's straight hair and the style we chose, "texturizing" is a really important step to getting the look we wanted. We will definitely be back! read more

This Great Clips finally reopened after 6 weeks. I really needed a haircut and this location's staff was nice and courteous despite being busy. My stylist, Wendi, did an excellent job of cutting and styling my hair. I'll definitely will be back. read more

There is a man in this great clips named alex who has such a firm grasp on men's hair that I've no longer been telling him what I want. I walk in ask him to make me look good and he blows my mind time and time again. Not only has he earned my blind trust but my experience shows he's one of the most personable barbers in the area. I have driven from auburn, midtown and rocklin just to get my hair cut by him and will continue to drive any length to continue to have him as my barber. read more

There is a complaint against a stylist that is fabricated on here against a stylist who can not hear and a women and her boyfriend who disregarded the women she spoke to them. I was there with my friends getting their haircut. she's actually really nice and can cut hair she just can't hear this place is great I would check them out read more

Got an amazing haircut and beard trim from Ashley. The best haircut I received in a long time. Will be coming back. read more

The heavier set woman with the purple hair botched my husband's hair and took an hour and a half to botch it. What a waste of $21. There manager will not be in til next week read more

For the second time this location has wasted my time in the same manner. I check in online showing a zero minute wait time. I drive the literal less than 30 seconds it takes me to get around the corner to thier location. By the time I get there I'm the second name on the list with a 20 minute wait time and nobody else in the waiting area. 5 minutes later the other party listed above me arrives with multiple people to get haircuts. Now my wait time bumps up considerably. What happened to first come first served? I was checked in online. I was checked-in in person. I was actually there waiting. Lesson learned. I'll spend my money at a local barber rather than this giant corporate entity that do not care about individual customers time. Something I should have already been doing. I'm done with Great clips. I'll go where I can be served promptly and in order. read more

I have never been to any Great Clips location before and yesterday I found myself next to this one and needing a haircut and beard trim. I walked in and mentioned these things to the woman at the front and immediately got the quintessential "terrible customer service" attitude and tone from her. I asked some very basic questions, being new to that establishment: "can I put my name in?"...."we don't do it like that here. If we did, and you didn't come back, it would just look like I'm standing here doing nothing." "Umm okay, as you can see I have a big beard, I wanted to also get it cut"...."we don't do that here." (Me looking at 'Beard Trim, $10' on board) "so I can't get that?"...."that's only if you also get your hair cut." "Oh I wanted a haircut too. So, yeah I'd want both. I've had some bad experiences with beard cuts, are you comfortable/good with working on beards?"...."we've been established for 15 years so maybe you should look up our reviews online. Well here is a new one for "people to look up." If the young lady with dyed red hair is working, walk out and go literally anywhere else. I was more than happy to be a new walk-in customer yesterday when there was not a single chair filled. And even gave the benefit of the doubt of "she's having a bad day" for the first one or two rude-tone responses. But she seemed to want me to leave and never patronize nor recommend this place ever. Still need a haircut and beard trim. Just won't be here. read more

Update if Andrew was there why would he just now be commenting? No reviews in three years and then now decides to look up great clips. Lmfao stop getting your bf to make up for your crap service he was NOT there lmfao and this had NOTHING to do with hearing she heard and replied to everything I said fine. Her responses to what she HEARD were the problem. I've never had this happen on yelp this shows how weird they are I simply walked out of great clips I did not yell, I did not say anything rude unlike you! i have every right to my opinion and she was definitely rude. And said ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about not being able to hear because that's fake too. Also notice how the "owner" has only replied to Andrew? Lol in 4 years you reply to just him? and I'm the one fabricating Why would I fabricate a great clips review I'm not you! Hahahahahah just take the bad review weirdos read more

This place is fast, efficient, a good value, and they give me a better haircut. Also, no weird menu of services, just a straightforward haircut. This is my new go-to. read more

The 3 stars is for Donna who cut my kiddo hair. She did a great job and is very nice. However, while I standing next to the chair Jennifer decided it was okay to sweep hair across my feet and bumped into me. If I wasnt allowed in the space, I would have sat down but i guess its her way of saying not to stand to close? Idk, she rude and Im glad she not going to working at that locatio any longer. Overall, experience was nice despite a sour employee read more

learn what a taper fade is, ESPECIALLY after me showing a picture of MY fucking previous haircut in regards to what i asked for, i'd expect you to be able to copy that, morons read more

I was worried about coming here, but I figured they couldn't mess up a simple cut with long layers. They did, and what I got was nothing like what I wanted. read more

Have had my hair cut by Linh twice now and she always does a great job and is super sweet, and friendly. She does a great job with a smile. read more

At $21 they should at least give you some alcohol to make you forget about how bad of a hair cut they just have you.

Hit or miss, my friends. There's this one dude who does an amazing job and I can't remember his name but he told me he's moving to Japan soon if that's any kind of clue. They also do a great job with kids. read more

I got my hair trimmed here a few days ago by a hairdresser named Morgan, and she was very sweet throughout the appointment, but I was nervous about how much she was cutting because I'm growing my hair out, and she started with the back and didn't show it to me as she was cutting. She took about four inches off, and when I walked out, my family noticed it was uneven between the left and right sides. I reluctantly went back in to have her fix it, and she snipped some more off then asked me if that looked even ? She didn't change my part at all or ask how I normally part my hair, and when I got home, I saw that the bulk of it is still uneven and there are random longer pieces scattered throughout my hair. Really disappointed that I paid and tipped someone to reset my hair growth by 2-3 years and have to get it recut even shorter to even it out. read more

Worst hair decision I ever made! The lady completely chopped my hair... Learned I need to be patient next time and go to a real salon. Not to mention she barely said anything to me and looked miserable. I should have ran for the hills when I asked for a V cut and she told me it would be more of a U. It isn't even a U it's a mess I'm so embarrassed I can't even wear it straight. The only positive I can say is the younger guy with the tattoos and the amazing hair does a killer mens cut! He cut my husbands hair the month prior and was super friendly and professional. I was actually hoping he would be there. We give him 10 stars! read more

first time trying great clips and had a pleasant experience. hardly a wait. I had a lady name morgan. she was very kind and did a great job cleaning me up read more

I came in on Sunday for an inch off the back and add in some long layers. I explained clearly what I wanted and when it was messed up I told her. She left me with short hair and massive chunky layer on the left side. I came back to get it fixed. She messes it up worse. I'm am over 50 and I have had my hair cut before. Never have I been so upset. She then told me it was lopsided because my hair is thicker on one side. What an insult! So upset and disgusted!!! Never again!!! read more

Super friendly staff and clean! They are doing all the right things to keep their customers safe during these times!

I really tried to like this location, but the quality of service is hit or miss. The last two times I've gone I haven't been satisfied and it seems to get worse each time. I just want a simple men's cut, but somehow that's difficult. Maybe it's not the stylist, but rather how little time they allot each head of hair. This most recent hair cut (yesterday) took about 10 minutes and didn't even look like it was cut. She chopped off a little here, a little there and I asked for more. Well then it was like: ok, happy?, bye! Next time I'll go to a regular salon, pay a little more and not be rushed. I won't be going back here again. read more

Awesome Hair Cut with minimum wait! Love it!!! Would definitely come back here. Hairstylist and Manager was great!

Ashlie gave me an excellent haircut and really took time to understand my hair type and needs....best haircut I've had in a while!! Excellent work and highly recommend! Plus she's super nice. Thanks Ashlie! read more

So bad!! They messed up my son's hair, totally crooked and the buzz was completely uneven and patchy. I wish I spoke up when I was there. It was the large man who cut his hair, he wasn't even friendly. I don't even want to go back to get it fixed fearing it will only make it worse! read more

Great staff. Short wait times with the online self-check in. This is our go-to Great Clips. They always do a good job.
