I waited quite a while even though I made an appointment but Candy was a joy. She is so personable and kind and I loved how she took her time with my haircut. Her kindness and sweet disposition made my first visit a memorable one. read more

I just got the worst haircut I have ever gotten in my life, and I have gotten some bad ones before. It was so bad I had to download Yelp and leave a review to let other people know not to come here. The lady who cut my hair was rude and clearly didn't want to be there, because as soon as she finished cutting my hair she clocked out and left. I showed her a picture of what I wanted and she completely disregarded it then cut my hair as fast as she could. read more

Got my hair son cut today. He loves his mowhawk. The stylist was nice to him. They are all friendly and professional. The wait time was not log. I would recommend checking in online before arriving. read more

Most of the time the staff is friendly and the cuts usually aren't bad, though it can be a gamble. Often times I can walk in and be helped within 10-30 minutes. When I'm on a tight schedule I try to use the app to check in and manage my time accordingly. My main issue is that every time I use the app to check-in, I watch my estimated wait time and get to the shop before that time, then get told that I'm next but there is a 10-30 minute wait(varied per visit) while I'm standing there with a 1 minute wait time displayed on my phone. What is the point of checking in online if I have to wait for the same amount of time that I would have if I just walked in? Great Clips had my business for a good few years, but I have to say that Sport Clips is definitely my new go to. I want to say this place sucks, but I've had some great experiences and honestly I'm just in a bad mood because I was unable to get cut before work today. Instead of sitting in a chair getting a haircut at great clips, I decided I could sit in a chair and write about great clips and they let me down today. Maybe we can be friends again someday, GC, but not today. Summary: Staff - nice Walk in wait - good Cuts - ok App - crap Online wait - crap 3/5 read more

This is gonna be a LONG one, fam, so grab your snacks. 0 stars for haircut (if I could): 1 star for customer service I don't ever feel the need to write reviews, but homegirl F*CKED my hair up so bad, that I just feel like it's my duty to WARN you guys before you go. I went to this location because of the amount of high ratings compared to supercuts. My original stylist wasn't available today (6/27/2021) and I really REALLY needed to get a haircut before Disneyland; Gotta look fresh for the mouse. The lady that helped me when I walked in was nice and was personable with the "mijo". I was thinking this was going to turn out to be a wonderful experience. WRONG! I gave her the run-down of what I normally like my hair to be like, zero to one fade on the sides with a square back and square hairline (I naturally grow a rounded hairline that I feel, doesn't suit my face shape. I don't like a round face on me). She immediately began, and I knew from that moment on, that she was gonna mess my sh*t up. She began to work FAST and with a HEAVY hand (red flag #1). There were moments that I felt the tip of the blades touch my scalp (Red flag #2) that she was quick to readjust and begin cutting again. Once she got to my hairline, she began to try and line it up. That part SEEMED like it was going to be okay until I looked up and saw the line go diagonally up from left to right. I thought it would have been easy for her as the hair that grows out of my hairline is different from the rest, basically outlining what my hairline should normally be. NOPE! She messed that sh*t up SOOOO BADLY! On top of the brutally murdered hairline, her hairline tool CUT INTO my skin! Granted, I walked away with a little dot of blood, but.... Forreal?? I didn't say anything other than nod at her work. There were no nice words to say and my momma raised me to say nothing if nothing nice is to come out of my mouth. She got me looking like rocky road ice cream with a cherry on top with these patches of white on my head and my little red dot due to her carelessly jabbing the points of the blade to my head. I'm SO very fortunate that I wasn't ready to cut the top of my hair. Who knows what kind of monstrous finish I would have walked out with had I let her trim the top. All in all, this experience has been the ABSOLUTE most horrifying experience I've had in a very long time (4 years ago during my bowlcut years). If I wanted this bad of a haircut, I would have done it myself. What was I thinking going into another fast-food joint, but make it haircuts? Next time, I'll just plan accordingly with my own stylist and be patient. In the end, I paid $22 ; $20+$2 tip (because she was nice). Should've been free99 with the way she got me looking. I get that y'all need to act like in-n-out and get your appointments out within a VERY fast timeframe, but, in doing so, you lose future clients because of your lack of attentiveness to detail. Needless to say, I will NOT be going back to another Great Clips, Supercuts or any sort of chain hair salon. I'll be sticking with my hair stylist or choosing an independent barber shop where they care about their reputation and the outcome of your haircut rather than how fast they can kick you out of their seat. I have learned a valuable lesson, so I guess something good came out of it all. I also called my mom after, hysterically laughing over how BAD of a job was done. I was so beyond mad that I couldn't even really be mad, but instead, amused by what had been done. Let's just say that I'll be wearing a beanie until my hair grows out. read more

Well, I really didn't want to leave a bad review, but when you get a noticeably crooked haircut that someone else has to fix, that's a bad review. I asked for a bobbed haircut, to clean up the shaggy grown-out pixie cut I had, and now the left side is down to the bottom of my earlobe while the right side is a good inch higher. So now, in between juggling my twins' first birthday party this weekend and out of town relatives, I've got to find someone else who can fix this mess of a haircut. Thanks for nothing, Great Clips. read more

It's been a year since this review and it's been a year since that haircut. I have some mild-PTSD because of it and I haven't been to another salon since. I've just been growing my hair out super long because I'm terrified of getting micro bangs again. Maybe one day I'll have a good experience at another salon and I can heal, but I wanted to take the time to reiterate that you get what you pay for. And I guess I paid $15 for some mild PTSD. read more

I checked in through the app, waited 90 minutes got there and they told me i was not checked in when i showed her the message that said your wait time is over and she said if you want you will had to wait another 60. read more

The quality of the service goes without saying. Now that we've got that out of the way... The girl who cut my hair made a homophobic statement. She was asking about the way I wanted the back of my hair cut, and she suggested I went with the feathery cut because it was more feminine, while the square cut was "kind of dykey." Well, it was her lucky day, because I AM A DYKE. Needless to say, she received no tip read more

This is one of the few times I'm glad I didn't read the reviews first. This was not like any other experience I've had at a Great Clips. The entire staff welcomes you as you enter, and I had zero wait on a Saturday morning. Now, granted, I don't have a lot to work with when it comes to hair. I just needed a little clean-up before my flight to Vegas. Blanca was my stylist, and she was fantastic. Quick, friendly, full of information if I ever want to vacation in Honduras (I do now!). They were running a promotion, so my cut was only $6.99. Now I'm ready to hit the tables. At least I'll look sharp as I lose all my money. Go there. Ask for Blanca. You won't be disappointed! read more

I just attempted to call Great Clips to make an appointment to get my hair cut. I was told they did not accept appointments by phone and they took walk in service. I asked the approximate wait time if I was to walk into the store in the next 10 to 15 minutes and I was told they could not give me an estimate because the wait time was consistently changing. I asked for a ball park estimate and again was told they could not give me that information because it always changed. I went to their competitor, walked in and got my hair cut immediately. Customer service is a big factor that Great Clips at this location really needs to learn. read more

Went in with a friend for haircuts, but no one ever checked her in, even though she was standing there the whole time. She was never helped. A couple of people came in after us and were taken right away while she was still waiting there. Unbelievable. The woman who cut my hair, Kara, had a very nasty attitude. I couldn't believe how rude she was. I wanted to say something, but when someone has your hair in one hand and scissors in the other, you might as well save your opinion for a yelp review. It was a very uncomfortable experience and I just wanted to get out of there as soon as I could. Needless to say, I won't be going back again. I think I can get a mediocre haircut somewhere with slightly better service. read more

Mayra is a great stylist. She's quick and she's just there for business, not trying to be all fluffy and have a thousand conversations. Highly recommend her! read more

I have been going to this Great Clips location from last 4 years so far the best saloon in my area. Stephanie - The best haircut I have got from her, she is very nice with all customers always take time and do the best. read more

This is my favorite place to have a haircut cause it's cheap for a good quality service. I mean it is not the cheapest hair salon, but of course you want a good quality cause for crying out loud, they're the one who cut your hair lol. I have no preferred hair stylist in this establishment cause everybody are awesome barbers. I just googled what haircut I want and bam!! They got it done just like what I exactly want. read more

Very convenient and perfect for when the grandkid needs a trim. He's not too particular and his hair has some funky (but super cute) cowlicks. However the hair is cut (scissor, clipper, good, not-so-good) I'll just spike it up on top for a "fresh boy" look. The hub will also occasionally come here when I don't feel like dealing with the clippers. I've gotten my own hair cut here too and most of the time things have gone well. The last time I went, however, was like the third time the stylist cut my top layer way too short (yikes) and I ended up fighting with my hair (again). I like to think I'm pretty low maintenance and not too picky, but after struggling with that darn top layer every morning for 6-8 weeks -- for the third time -- I'd pretty much decided it was time to search once again for a more consistent stylist. read more

Checked in via internet and drive there. We were checked in within a minute and my son was in the chair a minute later. My son was get his long hair cut and I was getting a bang trim. I had enough time to have my son´s hair washed and I showed her the picture that we were assuming for. I got my bangs trimmed and son´s hair was still being cut. My bands turned out well. My son's hair looked good. It was really short. But, he liked it. The picture had long bangs and my Son's were much shorter. All in all it turned out fine. read more

If you ask for a fade you ganna get a box by your ear and make you look liken the avatar on the back of your head, so disrespectful

BEWARE OF STEPHANIE.. SHE CUT A CHUNK OUT OF MY HAIR! I know this is you a "get what you pay for" type of experience but I have never had a terrible experience like this before with their hairdressers. Last week, I asked Stephanie just for a trim and she said she'd do her best to save the length of my hair on the bottom, however my layers needed work. I said okay sure, cut what you think you need to. When she took me to my chair she seemed distracted and almost like she wasn't exactly present. Don't get me wrong, we all have those days but after she is done with my hair I get home to wash it and blow dry it and A CHUNCK OF MY HAIR ON THE RIGHT SIDE IS MISSING!!! I also noticed the left side was actually longer in length and both sides were uneven! I was so upset I had to go to work and my coworkers definitely noticed. On the bright side, they offered to fix my hair for free but when I told the manager, she looked at me like she didn't believe me and almost like she really didn't care. I lost 3 inches of hair due to them having to fix it. Just beware, and it's definitely a gamble on who cuts your hair. I wont be going back. read more

Been bringing my son here for about 1 year now. The online check-in is great. Staff is always nice. Son's haircut is always on point. Wound definitively recommend especially for kids. read more

I had a couple of haricuts here in the past and it was okay but I went last Monday to get my haircut and had a bad experience so I won't be going back. I'm not a fan of their online reservation system. If you are a walk in customer and you check in, they put your name on the screen as first. If someone who checked in online comes in after you, they get to cut ahead of you in line. This happened to me and it's annoying but would be better if they just put the online check ins on the screen so you actually know where you stand and how long the wait might actually be. After the online person went ahead of me, another person came in, was in the queue his name came after mine on the screen and then without any explanation was taken ahead of me. Two people came in after I did and both were taken ahead of me, again no explanations were given, it was as if I wasn't even there. Needless to say I was frustrated with this so I left and went to Supercuts which is right across the street. read more

Their online check in system is a joke. I checked in and got to the place with 2 mins to spare and they took a guy ahead of me who was not on their online check in list. What's the point in checking in then? And you have to check in online. I called to make a Rsvp because it's just easier to call and they told me that I had to go online to check in. The workers here don't seem to care that they wasted my effort and time and gave me a subpar haircut at best. All I wanted was a trim and they took way longer than anticipated. The Armenian lady is the absolute worst trying to give me attitude when I waited, telling me I was next when in fact that was not the case. Along with the wait and inconsideration of the workers, this location gets to be one of the worst places to get your hair cut. read more

For the most part, the service is good. I like that I can check in online. I like that they save the specifics of how I get it cut in their system, and the employees are usually friendly. However, there are times that the automated system kicks me out. There was a time I called to ask how long until it kicks you off (because my work is far and its closer to my house) and the lady on the phone said it kicks you off after an hour. I came in and it was fine. Any other time i came in 40 minutes after checking in and it kicked me out and I had to wait 4 extra people that came in. I asked why it kicked me out, and said, "it says how long the wait is." They then say it kicks you off around 20 minutes, and said the person that told me an hour lied. It does say how long the wait is on the website, but it doesn't give a warning of what time your name will be knocked off. This should be added to the website. read more

Great Clips at xemino is great because of Anna!! She has been cutting my hair for some 3 years though it sometimes takes me months to get in to see her due to my languishing! I tell her what I want and I GET IT!! She is fast and knows what she is doing. Should she ever leave I will go with her! Thanks Anna for another great cut today. I want a bottle of whatever that product was that you used..put a note on my account for the next time I come in!! read more

Walked in and was greeted by a friendly face. There was no one waiting so I was taken right away. They young woman cutting my hair was very friendly and talkative and before I knew it, she was finished. Will definitely come back. read more

Let me start this off with a very short rant about the economy. I used to get my hair done at a wonderful luxury salon in San Diego by a lady that had been cutting my hair for years.... I did it every six months and it costs about 120 dollars. Now, I consider my hair one of my best qualities, its long and red and naturally curly and really thick and pretty. I'm kinda funny and I have good hair. WIN! So, in this economy 120 dollars is a crazy amount of money to spend on something so silly, when I can be kinda funny for free. Anyways, my hair was getting really long and split-endy and I was thinking to myself what am i gonna do? I contemplated Fantastic Sam's even (ew.) until I checked my mail one day and there was a coupon for Great Clips for a $4.99 hair cut. WHAT?!?! Are you joking?!?!? So, I decided to just go for it. When I went there, they were super nice and sweet, they both spoke english and they clarified exactly what I wanted. Was it the best haircut of my life Caitlin G.? NO, it wasnt. Was it worth every penny of my $4.99? Oh my gawd, yes. After a hefty tip and forcing my boyfriend to help me dye my hair in our bathtub I literally saved $100 dollars. I thought the staff was really nice and the store was very clean. I will go here again, and I am definitely on the lookout for more coupons. read more

I told the girl "Alex" I wanted a small trim and she cut all of my hair off! She was rude both times I came into the salon, she had a really bad attitude and made it seem like a chore that she had to cut my hair. So rude. I won't return. read more

I went in to get a my hair trimmed along with my friend. The chick Kara took my friends info and sat her down in the chair. I was standing there waiting for someone to check me in, which no one did. So I sat down. While Kara was cutting my friends hair two guys walked in and she took their info. Then my friend asked me if I was getting my haircut and I said "no, I'm going somewhere else." loud enough for her to hear it. This girl was so rude! She even stab my friend in the face with her nail. I did go somewhere else and got better costumer service and a better cut than I would have gotten here. Kara needs to learn how to give proper costumer service and not to stab people in the face with her nails. read more

I like the fact that they keep a database on how you get your haircut done. As a guy that doesn't really change the way that i get my hair cut done, Ilike the fact that even though you get a different stylist each time, you don't have to explain how you want your hair don. read more

Pretty good haircuts for men at least. Very friendly staff and cater to whatever you ask. Always have a good conversation and fast haircut. Not too expensive ($15) but, if you have a student ID you can get a discount for $12. Saves a little which is nice, I'll be back again for trims or another haircut. read more

Nice place with friendly staff. Best part is you can Check in online and reserve your space in line for a haircut.

had a very enjoyable time , the lady was so sweet (can't remember her name) and very helpful and honest with her advice on what i should do with my hair. my hair looks so healthy and beautiful now, thank you! will definitely be coming back. read more

I went here because of 2 reasons. 1, I live close by and 2, I received a coupon in the mail for a $6.99 haircut. I was in need of a trim and bang fix so I figured, why not? I should have spit up the extra money and time for a better place. I never really like going to Great Clips because I'm not treated well 9/10 times there. This time in particular was almost like a joke. Plus side, I had virtually no wait time, considering there were 3 workers and one person in front of me. I was attended to almost immediately, which is good. Also, when I was seated, the woman attending me was polite and asked me what I wanted and confirmed of what I wanted. Unfortunately that seemed to be about the only two good experiences in this trip. After that, she soaked my head with water (which has been done before in the past, so it's not horrible, but it was unexpected that she soaked it to the point that it looked like I hopped out of a shower). But fine, whatever. Let her do her thing. She then proceeded to comb through my wet hair, and part my bangs and whatnot, and began trimming. Well in the middle of her covering my face with my hair, tilting my head down, and halfway cutting the back of my head, she left me to assist another customer. I suppose it's okay to help another customer, but leaving me in that position was a little uncomfortable and awkward. Especially when there should be another worker readily available when 2 dressers are working with a client and 1 was free. Oh well. She returned and finished trimming my hair and bangs, walked behind me with a mirror, and held the mirror so I could "see" the result....with my wet black hair mixed in the black tarp. This was the first time I wasn't turned around to hold the mirror to adjust my view to my needs, but whatever. Maybe it's just how it's done here? Anyways, the length looked fine so I said ok. After that she removed my tarp and stood there without saying a word as I checked my phone real quick because I was confused. I she really going to expect me to walk out with my head cold and soaking wet? After a few seconds of her standing over my phone, she asked if I'd like my hair blow dried. Of course I said yes, and had her do it. But now since the tarp is removed, I had water and excess hair falling on my shirt, while I waited an awkward amount of time for my hair to dry since it was so wet. Usually when my hair is dried, it takes about 30 seconds because it is mildly wet. This time it was an awkward few minutes or so to get it somewhat dry. After she was done she didn't say anything again, so I checked my phone real quick again, and proceeded to go to the register without her saying a word besides how much the total was. Also, when I went home to actually see my hair, I was not amused. I had layers that I have been trying to grow out, but I wanted to remove the dead ends. Her solution was to cut my longest layer to the shortest layers length (which is ok in the end), BUT it looked as if she just gathered all my hair in the back, and held it together and cut it all at once, but leaving the top layers untouched. So now my hair looked slightly crooked, too boxy underneath, and too feathered and damaged on top, and very awkward. To the point my boyfriend noticed. Either my boyfriend is very observant (which he may be), or it was just that obvious that it was not well done. All in all, 1 star for no wait. Other than that, I feel as though this experience was with a worker who was inexperienced, or inconsiderate, or is just not a people person. I'm not sure which, or all, but that was the feeling. I think this is the last time I will go to a Great Clips, and definitely the first and last time I will go to THIS Great Clips in particular. Hopefully one day Great Clips will have a higher standard of who to hire in the future. read more

No wait at 10 am on a friday but u can check in online on busy days and jump to the head of the line if there is one. Doesn't matter who cuts your hair since they keep a record in the computer on what was done last time. Great for kids...fast and cheap read more

My house is right next to it. I prefer this place because of online check-in and no waiting. I am a csulb student so I get student discount of $2 on each haircut.
