Great Clips - My amazing hope cut and beard trim thank you so much - Hair Salons Near Me - San Jose, California

I switched to getting my haircuts here after my usual spot nearby was slipping and quality. I now come here monthly and love the experience. The people who work here are always happy and friendly and talkative during the haircut experience. They also really take their time to understand what I want done and they take their time to make sure that they do a good job and that I'm happy. I especially like how they keep a record of what haircut style I get and what settings they use each time so that the next time they can repeat exactly what I've gotten in the past. The online check-in is the way to go to find out what the wait time is and get on the waiting list before you even arrive. read more

Visit number 1 was a 1 star. This is how sheep being sheared must feel like. The woman who cut my hair was super rough and nicked me a few times with the razor and scratched my forehead with the comb a few times. I finally had to ask her to take it easy and it improved slightly after that. I don't know if this was par for the course or if she was having a bad day. Either way, totally unacceptable. The haircut was a disaster, super uneven, and a total mess. I just wanted to leave and got progressively angrier after I got home. I went back the next day to get it fixed and this time got to visit with David, the manager. He was awesome and was able to salvage my haircut. Visit 2 was 5 stars! They are lucky to have him. read more

May 27, 2026 Took a chance without calling or making an on-line appointment/reservation... no wait, and to make matters even better Ellen was available too. I have been very satisfied with other stylists in her absence. Ellen, thanks for 9+ years of great haircuts. read more

There are so many reasons why I like this salon. First, they send out mailers that have coupons for five dollars off a haircut. Second, the staff is so friendly and I always get a great cut. This last time the gentleman did a little something different and I absolutely love the look. They have a great online check-in system so you don't have to wait very long and you don't have to fill out a lot of information. I highly recommend this place for adults and kids. read more

We came here on a Saturday morning right before the opening time. The hairdresser was very nice, she checked me and my husband in. We waited only 5 minutes and got our hair done in about 10-15 minutes. It cost $25 + $5 tip (per person). It wasn't like the best haircut/hairstyle but you shouldn't expect that from a $25 haircut either. I was just looking for a quick decent simple haircut and I got what wanted so no complaints from me. We both like our hairdressers. They were really friendly, nice and polite! Definitely recommend but then again, remember to set your expectations right! read more

This was my first time trying out Great Clips. I am so happy I chose to try this location. I was greeted by Celi. She was such a delight and so polite. She took me right away and asked me exactly what I would like her to do with my haircut. She gave me some suggestions and she did exactly what she mentioned and I walked out of there so happy. The prices are really good. I have to also mention that the salon was very clean and the other ladies working that day were very nice. I will be coming back to see Celi and have her make me pretty again. Thanks Great Clips for employee Celi. read more

Great service and reasonable prices! Hours are convenient and they keep track of what your haircut is in the computer, so they know just what they did last time! read more

Do not go here unless you want to be completely ignored and only given a haircut they want to give you. Especially do not let Ms. Dao cut you hair unless you want to have a $100 perm completely cut off when you only asked for a trim. And then be accused of not explaining what you wanted correctly. Sorry, my bad for not explaining a trim correctly. And then for another stylist try to help but have no choice but to cut it even shorter because it was botched so badly that she kept muttering and shaking her head. Also, go if you like consoling your son who left in tears! But HEY...they agreed to not charge me so if you like free haircuts and high blood pressure...sure, go ahead. What a joke. read more

Great location, very clean. Check in at the front with phone number and it tracks your previous haircuts! Ellen is very nice, gentle and knows what a good haircut is. She took her time and made sure she asked all the right questions and gave me a great haircut. Great Job Ellen! I'll be back. read more

Great Clips - Front - Hair Salons Near Me - San Jose, California

Terrible haircut, was uneven all around as well as some hair she forgot to cut. Also could barely speak English, so communicating what you want goes out the window. read more

Came in as a walk in for my son. The stylist kept looking at me to answer questions and I had to keep saying that my son knows what he wants for a cut, you can ask him yourself. The cut was correct, but my son doesn't want to go back. read more

I went in for a simple bang trim yesterday, and came out with a complete hair transformation!! And it was all thanks to the new manager David, and his friendly, caring, amazing personality and skill. He started asking me questions about my hair care, and was very kind yet blunt (which is what I like) and let me know that I was caring for my hair in the wrong way! He then proceeded to show me what was wrong with my hair, and provided some tips and tricks on how to properly care for my hair, all while giving my hair the TLC that it needed. I've been wronged by so many hairstylists in the past, so sitting in David's chair and seeing he wanted me to be comfortable as well as he was taking the time to care for my hair, made me feel truly valued as a customer. This great clips will absolutely be my new go-to spot for getting my hair trimmed, as long as David remains the manager. read more

I have not been to a great clips. Was near by and needed a quick fade. Got an elder Vietnamese lady. I was a little skeptical. I was dreading my haircut and thinking 23 bucks for a quick fade and mess up haircut. Surprising she did a great job and we joked around a bit. I still think my haircut was a bit overpriced. Maybe since I remember when the haircut was only 5 bucks haha. read more

had a great haircut performed by Joshua today! He was very attentive and friendly. he definitely knew what he was doing. read more

From my kiddo: 5 stars, great service. Very friendly and I got exactly what I wanted! Never going anywhere else again. read more

Great Clips - Trim from Candy - Hair Salons Near Me - San Jose, California

I just moved to San Jose from Portland Oregon where I go to Great clips and always have an awesome experience. I was having a really bad day didn't feel pretty and wanted to get my hair done. I called first and the man that answered the phone didn't understand me. I spoke very slow but English was not his first language. Anyway I spoke with a woman and it appears that she somewhat understood what I was saying so I proceeded to go in. I wanted to show them a picture so I googled on my phone but for some reason the internet wasn't connecting. I was trying and trying and I asked her what the password was and she tried to show me on her phone but it was not working. I was trying to explain to her what I wanted but there was a language barrier. So both the man and the woman there were Asian and I couldn't even get on Google to do a translation which I've done many times because I understand English isn't always someone's first language. Anyway the internet wasn't working so I just asked her if she could Google the photo of the person that I wanted my hair done. She looked at me like I was crazy.then I even offered to write down the name of the person I was actually being very kind and they both made me feel so much less than. It was already having one of the worst days of my life and I literally left the salon crying. I had $100 for some reason my phone wasn't connecting to the internet and all I wanted was to feel pretty. But all I did was felt humiliated alienated when either one of these people could have just done something so sweet just so I could have a better day. I'm sure it is not a rule that people should have to use their own personal phones but people are on their phones every day and I don't really look threatening I'm 5 ft 3 and I'm a small person and I'm a nice person and I'm a Christian person. In a time of unity when everything in the world sucks it really sucks that I felt like I was being discriminated as a white person. I have been to Japan I have taken classes in Chinese culture I love all Asian cultures and fusion cultures but clearly I wasn't worth it enough for them to just Google two names so I could get the haircut that I wanted. So now I'm at home feeling worse than I did before I guess welcome to San Jose. I am hoping the owner will contact me because I would like to be treated with respect and I still want to get my haircut I have nothing but great things to say about Great clips in Portland Oregon but this experience was horrible. No compassion they really just didn't care. read more

I tried Great Clips on Camden Avenue in San Jose for the first time today and am THRILLED with the results. It is sometimes difficult for hair stylists to get my hair cut right since my hair is short, but Celi did a fantastic job. I highly recommend her, and Great Clips at this location. read more

Finally, this location has upgraded there credit card terminals to new ones that are more reliable, as last time it took 15/20 mins for the hair stylist to ring-me-up, as it was extremely frustrating. I come here based on the convince to my home. read more

Just got a hair cut from Charlie yesterday. I think he was new to this location as I haven't seen him before. Best haircut I've gotten at this location! He took his time and made sure he understood what I wanted. read more

I visited Great Clips on Camden Avenue last Monday. This was the first time I had gotten a haircut from Great Clips. The place was clean and neat. Everyone seemed very friendly. I was greeted by Audrey with a big smile, who proceeded to cut my hair. She was just awesome. Very polite, courteous, professional, and skilled. I am very particular when it comes to haircuts, but I must say, it was probably one of the best haircuts I have had in a long long time. I highly recommend Great Clips on Camden. Thank you very much, Audrey! read more

I don't understand why hair cutters these days don't know how to use scissors. I went in and asked for a trim (with scissors), the girl looks at me and proceeds to pull out the clippers. She then proceeds to run it on one side of my head and said "tell me what you think.." Well, since she almost shaved a the side of my head did it really matter what I thought? The damage was done and there wasn't any going back. She proceeded to use only clippers and basically gave me a buzzcut which is the opposite of what I asked for. You get what you pay for here. Which isn't saying much. read more

Ellen is awesome! She's so sweet and welcoming! She was very thorough and asked great questions to personalize my hair cut. Thank you read more

Today I went for the first time to this location. Shanta cut my hair; she was professional, knowledgeable, and friendly.

I want to give a big shoutout to Meti who cut my hair. She was a very friendly person to talk to and she cut the hair exactly the way I wanted to look. Thank you Meti. I'll definitely will be coming back read more

I went to this salon at 2:00 on November 2nd. I went in and Candy was about to help me until a customer requested her. I was asked to switch stylists. Candy was prepared and went over the style with me until she took someone else. I requested a fade on the sides and not to cut off any of the top of my hair by another stylist (unsure of name). This stylist wrecked my hair and shaved my sides completely. She buzzed the back of my head and the razor dug into my head near my ears and hurt me pretty badly. I asked for very VERY little of my top cut off (essentially, I asked for a small amount of texture) as I intend to grow it but she cut so much of it off that it looks not at all how I intended it to. To top it all off... when I got in my car there was a lot of hair still left on my that it came off on my hands when I attempted to fix my style as best I could. Unfortunately I can identify why folks want to see Candy as their stylist. Spent $27 for a haircut that is low quality and for pain when getting my head completely buzzed when this service was not requested. I will not be returning to this location. I'm very disappointed as I have been going to Great Clips since 2007. read more

This is what I hate about franchises, there is no consistency. I used to go to one in Dublin but in August 2020 I moved to San Jose. And this location was the closest to me. I asked the lady to just clean up my hair, she said ok . And what should've been maybe a quick 10 or 15 minute haircut became something way worse. She did not look like she knew what she was doing. My hair looks super uneven I asked her to do it a certain way because I comb my hair to the side she literally took two minutes on my right side and 15 minutes on my left side. And I needed this haircut because we were taking pictures for Easter. My wife almost cried because how bad my hair looked. I will never go to this location! And if you need a haircut and you're by this location, drive past it and get your hair cut somewhere else!!!!! read more

America. The hairdresser is very knowledgeable and patient with kids ! Loved her attention to details

My sister had a simple trim with a Korean hairdresser. Didn't expect much from the beginning but was impressed at her attention to detail and customer service. Honestly may be the first Great Clips I've been to that I've been content with! read more

I was greeted by two ladies as I walked into the Great Clips facility at 2075 Camden Ave. I checked in online and I was first on the list. But the first available stylist (didn't catch his name; but he was the only male stylist there at 9:30 am on Sunday morning) decided to take the gentleman who came in and checked in after me. That stylist never made an eye contact with me and I though it was quite rude of him. I don't know why he decided to skip me. Maybe he was new and got intimidated by my curly hair. After finishing up with her current client, Sandra helped check in the gentleman who came in after me and assisted me soon thereafter. Sandra had a friendly demeanor and kept her smile on the whole time she was cutting my hair. She provided a great service and is the only reason I would recommend this location. read more

NEVER AGAIN. I went there for my first time today and asked for a TRIM of 1-2 inches at most. SHE CUT OFF 4-5 and had no technique at all, and kept making it look very choppy in the back. this absolutely not what I asked for and they completely ruined my hair. if i could give it no stars, i would. Please never go there. read more

I came to this great clips location for a quick haircut a year and a half ago, and I have been coming here ever since. Everyone here is very nice, but I come to see Ellen. She does a great job providing a personalized service, and I trust her completely with my hair... she even decided to change my cut and it looks even better than ever. Thanks Ellen!!! read more

Great Clips - Another great clip from Ellen - Hair Salons Near Me - San Jose, California

On a recent trip to San Jose I was in a pinch and needed a haircut desperately. So I looked up this location and headed over. To be honest I was very skeptical because the same girl has cut my hair for years and I only trust her. But she was on an extended vacation and I was in great need. Headed over and immediately greeted by the manager with a super friendly welcome greeting and asked if I had checked in on -line. You bet I have made that rookie mistake before. If you download the Great Clips App you can check in as your headed over. This always guarantees your wait time cut in half. The same very nice Asian lady who greeted me also cut my hair. After a quick explanation of how I wanted it she went to work. Also the other nice thing about GC is that once your in their computer your info is saved and anyplace knows how you want your haircut. The conversation is now just a quick verification of what you want. After about 20 minutes I am all done. I really enjoyed the conversation during the time. She was super engaging, friendly and super personable. This is a real lost element today and something only a select few people working in the people business get. Well she does and it was a pleasure getting my haircut at this location. Now Shhhh I can't tell my normal lady I cheated on her....Haha! read more

I came in to get a haircut, repeatedly asked to just get a haircut but was bothered by how they kept insisting that I give them my name, phone number and address? Is this a doctors office? Is this the police station? Why do I have to give so much personal information just to get a haircut?! After seeing that their computer system would not let them skip the step of entering my information, I just left in frustration because this ordeal already taking up a couple minutes and was irritating and unnecessary. Will know to not go into a GreatClips again! read more
