I have always had a good experience there until yesterday when I tried to use a valid coupon on my phone and the woman would not even try to enter the numbers and she told me I needed the paper coupon. I ended up paying double what I should have and I even gave her a $10 cash tip, which I regret greatly now. I asked the manager if they could do anything and all they could offer was a five dollar off the next haircut, but I'm never going there again. I would not recommend it, they will rip you off. read more

The lady that cut my hair today coughed in her hand then immediately touched my head shortly after. Haircut was meh.

Well they do a decent job, but I think if there is a way to get the same barber that is best. I have been there twice. The first time, great the second time with a different person ' meh'.... Without a consistent experience, change the name to "Ok Clips" and charge less... read more

My cut was 10/10 today by Angie. Very pleasant and friendly gal and super calming cut. I have super dried and damaged hair and she cut off her recommended amount and it looks fantastic. Thanks Angie! read more

I needed my hair cut really bad. The medications I take have affected my hair's texture and also caused a lot of thinning and it had been a while since the last cut. I was not feeling pretty as well as just old and frumpy. I decided to go. A little self care is good for the soul. My hair dresser (I forgot her name, but it seems she has been there a while) did a fine job with my hair. She listened to what I wanted and gave me the cut pretty much the way I described to her and showed a picture of myself with that cut. Part of the problem and challenge was that was before I started the medications. Now, I wanted the same look, but dealing with what my hair would cooperate into are two different issues. I was satisfied and that is what matters. I definitely would recommend going to Great Lips in Vista. read more

Hit or miss I've been going for over a year because their prices was cheaper than most and I initially had some good experiences, however over time they became just adds expensive as the other professional local barber shops (non-commercial) And I've gotten some bad cuts from barbers who seem like they Didn't care just.in-n-out. Know exactly what you want or who you want or it's going to be a bad time. I had to move on unfortunately. read more

No fade. Lucky my boys hair gross fast so he isn't to worried. Don't worry Alma we won't be back. read more

Great Clips Vista - No fade on a comb over. Beware of Alma - Hair Salons Near Me - Vista, California

I've been happy with several Great Clips locations in North County for 10 yrs. I recently decided to look at a location closer to my house after the stylist I've been using for the last 5 yrs moved out of the area. I don't have much hair to cut (anymore) and it's not difficult but I'm particular about it and like a personal connection. I found Kandy at the Vista shop on main st, and she's been great!! Experienced, professional & accommodating, perfect for me. The other stylist in the shop are always nice & friendly when I come in as well. Save time, check in on the app read more

Needed a quick basic haircut. the woman who cut my hair was very sweet and very professional. Thank you! Would definitely go again.

Kandy is awesome! Late post... Kandy styled my hair a couple weeks ago and she is great! A wealth of knowledge, from color to cut. Didn't really know what I wanted, but I knew that I wanted my current cut (men's, longer than shoulder length, undercut) gone. At first, I wanted a short military style cut... something drastic, but instead I decided to trust Kandy. SHE DID NOT DISAPPOINT! She styled the cut to roughly about 3-4 inches on top, textured, and cleaned up the undercut because my previous length on the sides did not allow for blending just yet. Because the cut was done so well, I felt brave and confident enough to try something new... A hard part. This really gave me the option to use product and achieve the military feel if the situation suited. Just got back from vacation and received great feedback. Family, friends, and colleagues at work also noticed before my trip. Wife loves it! I don't often stay with the same hairstyle or color and I really like to have a versatile style with options, always thought this was asking a lot... Kandy... pleasantly, professionally, and perfectly proved me wrong! Thanks, Kandy... Will be back to see you soon! read more

Not recommended. Make sure to bring your mask with you as they won't give you a haircut without it

Let me just start with the disclaimer that I know GC isn't on the same level as a barber shop and to go into it with realistic expectations. Let me tell ya, this shop went above and beyond to lower the bar. Checked in online and there was no wait, which seemed awesome at the time, but probably should have been a warning sign. Asked for a 1/2 inch off the top and low fade on the side. What I got was a rushed, poor fade with anywhere between an uneven 1-1 1/2 inches off the top. What was super disappointing is that this lady clearly knew what an inch was, considering that's exactly how uneven she left my sideburns. The employees were unpleasant and complaining about the shop the whole time. The lady who cut my hair was semi-quietly singing (badly) right next to my face, so that was fun. Price was fair, but if I wanted someone to jack up my hair for $21, I'd have just given my money to a small child with scissors and probably gotten a better result. This isn't a dig at all Great Clips, just this one in particular. Save yourself a bad haircut and look elsewhere...like, literally anywhere else. read more

I went in to get my son a haircut. He had long hair and wanted a new do for summer. Gina was super friendly and made recommendations and let my son chose what he wanted. I am super pleased with the results! My son LOVED his haircut. Gina was awesome, we will be returning to get future cuts. I highly recommend Gina. read more

I was looking for a place to cut my dead ends. I only needed a quick trim and started looking for a place close by. I saw this place was 5 minutes away and decided to drive there. I also saw the Check-In special for 1st time users, which was $11.99. Once I arrived, a lady at the front ask me if I had an online appointment. I said I had checked in on Yelp and wanted a trim. She acted confused and asked what was the Yelp special, even though they had Yelp all over the studio. Another lady came by and asked what the Yelp special said and I said, it says $11.99 for 1st time users for checking in. She acted confused as well and said they didn't have that Special. Like really? It's here. I showed the Yelp cupon and they denied my request. I also restated I only needed a quick 5 minute trim, nothing fancy, nothing special. They mentioned they only took competitor coupons but not this Yelp coupon, and if I wanted a discount they could only give me a few dollars off from their reguar pricing. Long story short. I left. They acted like they were doing ME a favor. I came in for a quick trim, something super fast. I don't mind paying, but when they use false advertisements to get customers in and then deny the usage of those coupons that is not ethical. Please revome the coupon if you are not going to validate this for customers. Thank you. read more

Great Clips Vista - They don't take this - Hair Salons Near Me - Vista, California

I got my hair cut but Kandy and I can't leave a better review. She was super knowledgeable about hair care. We had quite the conversation about over priced shampoos and conditioners and she was able to leave me with a great recommendation. Additionally, she provided me with excellent service and an even better hair cut. read more

I have been using them for haircuts for awhile, and this most recent time I have a very unpleasant and disturbing experience due to one of their stylists. What's more important though is that after the manager and owner of the location reached out to me in an extremely timely manner and went above and beyond to apologize and make the situation right read more

my friend went in for a haircut around 10 and my friend had asked one of the hairdressers to cut face framing pieces around her face.. instead of cutting face framing pieces she had cut curtain bangs... that were straight not even at a angle. She didn't even blend them in to her hair so now half of her hair looks completely shorter than the rest of her hair. She came home and balled for 3-4 hours. I understand that not all hairstylist are able to do certain haircuts but that is what should have been listed and told to my friend before proceeding to get her hair cut. Also there was no communication between the hairdresser and my friend on what length she had wanted. I think this is absolutely unacceptable . I would not recommend this place !!!! read more

Don't bother with all the negative comments. Everyone only has time to post a bad review, never a good one. The entire world is short staffed so there is a wait and it's a service being done, not Amazon instant delivery! Wait time was fairly quick. Kim was very patient and helpful. She went above and beyond for my daughter's first haircut. Our haircuts also came out great! read more

Horrible costumer service asked for availability and never even answered the question. Who ever is on the phone just told me to check in online and that they close at 3. I called at one so for some reason 2 hours from closing is an annoying time to call and check for availability. Straight up lazy. read more

I hate to give a bad review but if someone isn't friendly as you walk into there business they shouldn't be working..I kindly asked jennifer for a mask for my client because he forgot his mask and jennifer decided to roll her eyes at me an acted like she didn't want to give me one, but it didn't stop there she was also rude and nasty to my client..when two other people walked in the door she was very polite to them...Now I'm asking myself why we didn't get that same treatment..the lady Kim who cut my clients hair was a doll an very kind I will give her considering that we are in a pandemic I think that people should be a little bit more welcoming! read more

I have always had a good experience here, but today was exceptional! Alexis I'd the best! She is so sweet, easy to talk to, and genuine! Sho loves her job and it shows in her work. She gave me exactly what I wanted, and I am a lousy explainer. We need more Alexis' in the world. read more

My stylist Kim was a pleasure to talk to and did quick work! Love how my haircut came out! If you're going to this location ask for Kim!

I checked in online and then headed out to the salon. I was greeted immediately and checked in. I could see my name on their in list. I waited about 10 mins and then sat down to a simple trim. She checked with me after her first cut to get approval and then we were done. A great experience. read more

The woman with the darker hair was just over the whole thing. As a new customer, she was almost annoyed when I walked in and asked if I could make an appointment. I came back later to get my haircut. I had previously had my hair cut by the woman with light hair and she was great. Even though she was tired from a busy day, she was friendly, showed interest in her customer and was pleasant. This time around, the woman with dark hair was short, annoyed and almost condescending when I showed her a picture for a reference. Again, being a new customer and still not very knowledgeable about which size looks which way, I hoped she could look at the reference and give me her opinion given her line of work. She instead retorted that she didn't know what size that would be. Neither did I. Honestly thought she would, at the very least, offer a suggestion. She then proceeded to point towards the picture's caption and tell me, "See,it doesn't say." I then simply guessed a number since she was clearly not interested in putting any energy beyond the bare minimum. I always try to tip when I get a haircut. But given the bare minimum effort she put into her service, I opted to forgo a tip. Her reaction was to laugh to herself as if something was confirmed. It felt she made certain assumptions when a new younger client walked in to get a haircut and comported herself according to her preconceived idea of the customer. She was far more gracious to the older gentleman and the married couple before me. I will not be returning and advice others that don't know the precise measurements of their cut, to avoid this woman. If possible, ask for the other woman. She seemed much more agreeable and genuine. Also, completely unrelated, they ask you for an alarming amount of personal information. In addition to name and phone number they ask for complete address WITH apartment number. I understand the company may want to send reminders when its time for another haircut, but I was given the option to opt out of all the info. She just asked and even when I left out my apt number she pressed on. I felt almost uncomfortable with the rigidity of the questionare. read more

Great Clips Vista - Fair wheels - Hair Salons Near Me - Vista, California

The absolute worst hair experience I've ever had. My hair turned out absolutely NOTHING like the pictures I showed her multiple times. I went in for a hair cut and a wash. Hair cut is 16 and wash is 4. I said I wanted to see my hair so she starts blow drying it. Like any normal place would do. I hate my hair. Even after she attempted to "fix" my hair I still hate it so much. I expected my bill to be 16+4 so around 20 plus tax (and normally a tip. But she did nothing to deserve a tip!!) They tell me it's $56!!!!!!!! Like what in the world!?!?!? They told me that the blow drying was $36 Are you serious!? No one told me this. I should have refused to pay it. I wasn't told hey it's extra do you want blow drying. Terrible terrible service. Do not go here!!!!!!!! read more

Chris was my hair stylist. I showed him the style I wanted and he did it. he was so sweet and it was a great experience. great environment and would come back here read more

Unlike Fantastic Sam's or Supercuts, there is no wait here! Though the place looked busy (Sunday afternoon), I literally filled out their check in form, and was immediately escorted to the stylist's booth/chair. Ashley asked what I came in for (cleaning up the shag look... just needed to get an inch cut off to get rid of split ends), and conversation flowed naturally. My fiance got his hair cut right next to me, and seemed to be having a decent time too. All in all, we were out in 15 minutes. We really didn't realize how short it would take to get our hair cut. So why 3/5? Call me spoiled, but I'm used to paying $15.00-$16.00/cut for the shampoo, head massage, actual hair cut, and product recommendations. For the price, all I got was some water spritzed enough to wet my hair, the cut, and (after asking) was shown how to tease my hair to give it a bit more of the subtle look of volume. I appreciated that and the genuine sincerity in making me feel welcome and ultimately, I was happy with my hair cut, but I just didn't get that "Ohmigawd, I feel BEAUTIFUL" sensation I usually get when stepping out of the shop. This place probably deserves a four, but since I paid for my hair cut *and* my fiance's, I actually wasn't satisfied with the look of his hair (I don't know what he asked for, but he looked like a Chinese kid with a bowl hair cut). I didn't care to ask the attendant's name nor do I want to put anyone on blast on Yelp, but I just felt the need to rush him home and get some pomade/gel to his hair looking proper again. The place is clean and well kept, but I just wasn't digging the $32.00 bill not including tips... Ashley is great though, so if you do go here, ask for her. I'll try a couple other places elsewhere, but if I can't find anything, I'd go back here, especially if there's deals & promos (they have those, right?). read more

My husband has been going here to get his great haircuts by Edwardo for months. I came with him a few times and the staff was always so friendly even when you're just waiting for someone. Today I got my hair cut here for first time and it was done by Kelsie who had amazing talent! I just cut my mid back length hair 1 week ago trying to do an inverted bob at a fancy and very expensive salon but it ended up just ....not right and lacking style. With Kelsie she stopped to let me see and verify the length we were going to in the back and handled my thick hair expertly. Now I have exactly what I wanted with a chic and sleek look....at $14.00!!!! What!? Now it will be by go to place as well:) read more

Lex is AMAZING! Great experience. I came for a shampoo, trim, and blow dry. I normally don't like the way other people style my hair but she dried it and styled it so perfect. Def will go back to her. Everyone at this location were welcoming. read more
