Thank you Sarah for a great haircut , and advice for which way I should cut it . 04/12/2025 5 stars read more

This is the second time I've been to Great Clips and I am definitely not coming back :( I've gotten my layers before at salons but I didn't feel like spending $65 on a haircut.. the first time I came the haircut was OK. I styled it and it was fine. However, when I came today, I was attended by a different lady. She accidentally hit me on the head which was fine, it was an accident whatever, but she was being super rough and playing with my hair more than she was cutting it. I told her I wanted an inch taken off and she definitely cut more. I told her I wanted long layers and face framing bangs.. I even demonstrated how I wanted them. When I was watching the technique she was using, I already knew it wasn't going to come out the way I expected . She cut WAY TOO MUCH bangs. I could tell she didn't even part them correctly or watch how much she was actually cutting. It looks super choppy and like a straight line almost. It is NOT blending in with the rest of my hair. I tried straightening my hair or doing a blowout at home to make it look a bit better but it still looks horrible. The picture below will show you how much bang there is. Now when I want my hair in a braid, it'll fall off and look like I have super short hair from my front profile. It took me so long to get my bangs to grow out just for them to come out like this :( read more

Great Clips - Women's Haircut - Hair Salons Near Me - Woodland, California

I have been going to great clips for some time now . Some hair cuts better than others . I do not have a set schedule the last few times I walk in to get a haircut. I sit and five people walk in the door that have checked in online and they put them in front of me. I understand you tell me 20 minutes? I can live with but that turns into 45 min after walk ins come through the door and say they've checked in on line . I am patient and a good tipper, but we all don't live online. time to move on. read more

I came to this location for a haircut and was told I could not be serviced because the stylist believed I had lice/nits. The stylist only checked a small section of my hair before calling a second person, who said the same thing without doing a full, careful examination. I left feeling embarrassed and uncomfortable. To be certain, I immediately went to another salon and even offered to pay $10 if they could find a single nit or lice. The staff there took their time, examined my scalp thoroughly, and confirmed there were no lice at all, only mild dandruff. They completed my haircut without any issues. I left Great Clips feeling that I was not treated with patience or respect, and it made me feel singled out. As an Asian customer, I COULDN'T HELP BUT FEEL THAT I WAS JUDGED UNFAIRLY, even though I cannot say for sure if that was the intention. What I do know is that the lack of a proper examination caused unnecessary embarrassment and inconvenience. I hope the staff receive better training on identifying lice before refusing service, and I hope all customers are treated with care and respect. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE! read more

Another great haircut from stylist Sarah A. Just the way I explained that I wanted it; casual layers, with the layer on top about 3 inches shorter than the layer of hair at the bottom. Sarah always listens to what I want for a haircut, then gives her full attention to my hair. Not hurried but not slow either, a nice comfortable pace from beginning to end. Thank you for your talent Sarah! read more

Horrible cut, didn't listen to what I wanted and just wanted to hurry me out. Never again!

I'm not too picky about my hair, and my mom likes to go to Great Clips so I sometimes go in for a trim. She always appreciated the convenience, efficiency of service, and the value. Convenience was really the only reason I went: if my mom wanted a haircut I would get a trim rather than just read on my phone. I don't think my hair is too complicated: it's long, I get long layers and face framing. My hair is wavy and it does it's own thing, so it's pretty forgiving. But I've never been happy with a haircut I've had at this location. Usually the appointment takes 10 or 15 minutes, though sometimes less, and I often leave feeling that nothing was done with my hair, or I have face framing so short that it looks like I have a spray of outgrown baby hairs at my temples. Sometimes my hair is misted, sometimes it is cut dry. There's no consistency. My mom says she appreciates not having to spend so much time getting a haircut, but I have always felt it was time wasted for me personally. But I'm not leaving a review for myself today, but for my mom who has always been the loyal Great Clips customer. She went in for a haircut today without me. She brought with her the same photo she has brought to haircut appointments for the last 20 years, at least. She is an older lady now and hard of hearing, so sometimes you have to say things twice, and she speaks English as a second language, and I understand how all that can be frustrating. I also admit that I am only hearing this story from my mom's perspective. But from what I understand, there was confusion between the stylist Jenny and my mom about what she wanted cut. My mom kept referring back to the photo she brought, and eventually Jenny said she couldn't do the haircut and refused my mom service. What I found most surprising about this story is that Jenny was my mom's stylist the last time we went in together a few months ago. I sat across from them and heard their conversation, and it did seem like there were some communication misunderstandings because my mom couldn't verbalize what she wanted. That cut was spur of the moment, so I'm the one who advised her to bring her photo for the next cut. But apparently, that became a point of contention. Maybe Jenny was having an off day? But one negative interaction like that can cost a lifelong customer, and that's the case with my mom. As I said, I have taken my mom to Great Clips appointments for years--decades perhaps. I see LOTS of parents of boys bringing their kids in for trims, and they all seem satisfied with the service. I think that is their wheelhouse. If you're looking for care and consideration with a female hairstyle, this is not the place for you. read more

They were more worried about getting off early then giving me a haircut. They had 48 minutes before closing and did not want to add me to a list that only had three people on it. my HAIRCUT TAKES ABOUT 10 MINUTES. very BAD SERVICE read more

My son just got another great cut from Octavia. The store is always clean and everyone is so polite. Also, it's a great value for such a great experience. Thank you to everyone and we look forward to the next time. read more

The stylest decided to cut my hair, her way. Not the style I wanted. She cut it so bad. I had to go to a different salon. To correct the damage. Very disappointing read more

Thanks, Donna! Great cut, great smell, good vibes. Awesome receptionist at check-in! I will be coming back for sure!!!

Five minute haircut = $23. Not what I would call a great value. Also, they store your personal information, including the names of minor children. read more

I went for a Shampoo at Great Clips in Woodland.The girl hardly did anything. Did not feel that my hair was shampooed. I will never go there again. read more

Took my son in for last minute hair cut . The place was super busy and there were getting everyone out pretty quick. All the cuts I saw leaving looks good. Not sure if we just got the new girl or she just didn't understand the style he wanted. My 11 yr old wanted the " faded mullet " yeah a mullet , I guess it's back in style. She left the length in the back but she didn't cut the side shirt enough or even for that matter. The front / top looked like a bowl cut . The left side was an inch higher than the right side. I tried to get him to sit back down in the chair but he didn't want to , he just wanted to leave. He was embarrassed. I just trimmed it up for him when we got home. This is my first time here so I can't say I'd I recommend it or not. I just felt like they were trying to get people out the door pretty quick. As a parent I would recommend you look at the cut before your kid gets out of the chair. read more

Always a nice and pleasant no frills visit. For a blunt cut, it's my go-to these days. Staff is always friendly, and the online check-in is great. read more

We have been going here on and off for years. Some haircuts have just been bad but livable. Well they keep getting worse. My husband took my son yesterday and had his hair cut. The back is chunky layered horribly, the front area was cut so weird it won't lay straight, the rest is choppy and looks like a kid did it. My husband asked about it and was told "give it two weeks it will grow out" - he didn't know what to do so just left --- doesn't appear this place even cares you aren't happy with their cuts. Unprofessional and not the first time I had this experience. read more

I got my hair cut today by Sara, a layered bob. She did such a great job. I was able to style it very easily. She's very professional, detailed and focused on what I wanted and needed. read more

I had long hair and asked to cut it shoulder length. The lady acted like she knew what i wanted. All of a sudden she pulls my hair back and cuts it from behind instead of the front to make sure its the length i asked for. She cut my hair chin length instead of shoulder length. It only took her 5 mins and she said she was done. I wanted to curse her out but kept my cool. I have never had anyone cut my hair in 5 mins. In that case i could've done it my self. My hair is not blended in just looks like a mushroom. Now i have to wait a few months to even attempt to have someone fix it because i don't want it any shorter as its already way too short. Worst haircut I've had in my life! I learned my lesson from now on I'll go pay extra but with someone that knows what they are doing. read more

Nothing is worse than when you have somebody telling you how you should cut your hair. That's what happened to me today. She would not listen, so I finally gave up. Told her I needed multiple layers. I got two told her I wanted it round and contour to my face. I got none. if I could give no stars, I would. read more

Really like the online check -in process. I was initially a little worried because I read older reviews. While there was a long wait when I went, the stylists treated everyone well and didn't seem rushed. I love my haircut and will be returning! Thanks Great Clips read more

First time going to this location and I have to say one of the worst experiences I've ever had! I would not recommend this location to anyone! I checked in online at 12:30 pm, my est. wait time was 112 minutes, no problem; this gave me time to get stuff done and plan my day accordingly. I checked the wait time an hour later and it was 90 minutes, then it went down to 60 minutes, then to 100, then to 50. So after more fluctuations I decided to go down and see what was going on and to hopefully not have to wait in the salon long. As I was driving there I noticed I was no longer on the waiting list. When I arrived of course I had a complaint of the situation that made my day revolve around this haircut. The employee immediately got defensive and cut me off many times so I asked to speak to the manager. I was relieved to hopefully resolve this issue but was was greeted with someone walking up hastily covering her mouth with her mask. She didn't have it on, she was actually just holding it on her mouth with her hands and the sides were sagging down to expose the corners of her mouth. I explained my situation and to my surprise she spouted out, "You don't have to come here"! It shocked me so much I said "Excuse me"? She repeated but with the words, "Then don't come here"! At that point I heard all I needed to hear, but I made sure to ask for her name. She responded "Jenny", in a rude manner. I didn't want to have to drive all the way to Davis but I really needed a haircut so I made the trip. I'm very glad I did, this location was like the "great Clips" I'm used to, the service was good and the check in time didn't go crazy. I was pleased with the cut and didn't mind the drive too bad after all. read more

Not what it used to be. Uneven cut. Lady didn't follow instructions. read more

First time here. We did the app check in. Got there and were seated after a short 5 minute wait. The girl who helped my mom was nice, fats, attentive and fast. No hour long hair cutting session; just straight to the point. Some other clients went in with no app check in, and they were told it was a 45 minute wait. Make sure you download the app and check in. It's a time saver! $14 with senior discount. read more

Asked for a trim he showed me exactly how much I wanted cut and I said yes that's perfect and he kept cutting more and more when I was done, half my hair was cut off. My hair was down to under my butt walking in and walked out with just below my shoulder blades. Not to mention it's choppy and looks like I did it at home myself. My girlfriend went in and asked for curtain bangs and tried to show him a picture he didn't even look at it and dismissed her picture and said "yeah I know what curtain bangs are." All she wanted was curtain bangs and left with a wolf cut which is not what she asked for, it's choppy and uneven. Enough to make you cry. Would not recommend, or at least don't get the male stylist if you're a woman and value your hair. There was another woman who got her haircut by someone else and it looked great and full! read more

I usually never have a problem here BUT now I am never going back. SHANTAL messed up my kids hair cut SO bad , I had to ask another stylist working to see if she could fix but there was no fixing. Shantal was not validating what I was trying to express and kept rushing me out since she cut off half of my sons hair line off! She responded "well thats what you get for coming to a fast hair cut place" keep in mind I was trying to keep calm the whole time but she did not listen to my concerns. She kept saying it'll grow back in 2 days! Horrible service by her!! She was shaking when holding the clippers and trying to keep cutting more hair line off!! , almost like she was not all the way there mentally! I'm not sure how she got her license in the first place !! Don't get cut by her!!! I understand this is a cheap place to get cut but I NEVER had this bad of a cut from here read more

Great Clips - Dont get cut by Shantal at woodland. You can see she comletely cut off my son's hairline , he had a nice square line up before this ! - Hair Salons Near Me - Woodland, California

I received a haircut from this location the other day. I like the way my hair came out, and it was a relatively quick process, but I did have one odd experience. The woman that welcomed me repetitively said I smelled like beef. She was just like, "it smells like beef in here.. is that you? do you smell like beef, beefy boy?" I was like, Dang Lady. And you know, she was right. It did kinda smell like beef. Another girl came to cut my hair and she did a great job. She did not mention beef. Beef. I will be coming back again! read more

Warning! Long post!! I am super frustrated! I know many people say this, but I mean it. If I could give this place ZERO stars, I so would! Even minus! I took the kids to Great Clips today at around 2pm, and 2 out of the 4 kids are getting their haircuts. I then focus my attention on Carina who is combing through my 4 YO's hair she then focuses on one area as if she "sees something" I get up right away and ask what is happening. She says, "I think he may have lice." No way! I quickly get in there to check and I do find a flattened out, dead egg where she had been combing through. I grab it, place it on top of my thumbnail and with the other I press down and closely wait for a "pop" that never happened. I'm confused because we check them often because they did have it a few years back, so we are paranoid! So she continues to comb through the hair by his neck and oh! She finds another dead egg. I'm super confused by now! I check his head right then and there and nothing more! They check my little guy (2YO) just to make sure. Nothing! All they see is crumbs and assume they are what another young lady employee called "baby lice" LOL! Since when do crumbs resemble "baby lice?" So they don't cut his hair. A blessing in disguise because I can get it cut at a better place! Besides being embarrassed, I'm upset that they are telling me to treat all of them just in case they have it... like, what? No! Carina continued to advise me that my 2 YO needed to be treated even though he didn't have anything in his hair! "Just in case" she said. Like, why are you giving uneducated advice like that? Terrible! I come home, check my 4 YO vigorously and nothing! Nada! Check the others, and... of course, NOTHING! Then I remember the nasty comb she was running through his hair and then I get chills up my spine. I called them to inform them that it could have been the comb she used and that they should definitely get them checked! Of course, she defended herself and the dirty comb with, "we use hospital sanitation for our combs" yes, that doesn't mean they don't still have dead lice on them!! I vented on FB and a friend that used to work there told me that they don't use hospital grade sanitizer and that they are supposed to throw brushes and combs out that have been used on people with lice, but that they don't to save money. They just "sanitize" them. Disgusting!!!!! When I asked Carina if she used a dirty comb on him before she checked his head, she told me she didn't comb his hair prior to checking. Lies! I seen her with my own two humungous eyeballs! Immediately she denied using it prior to seeing anything. I was watching her the whole time. I don't know who gave these clueless ladies their license to cut hair, but they need to give them back! Besides waiting for them to fix a problem they caused at the checkout desk, my kids were getting annoyed. They didn't even give them lollipops! My poor 4YO was so sad and couldn't understand why he didn't get his haircut. I have no idea why I tipped each one of them $2. I regret it tremendously! I am definitely contacting corporate and hoping to get my money back! I am so dissatisfied with my boys' haircuts!! They even scratched up my 6YO. Don't go here, unless you want dead lice eggs and UGLY unprofessional haircuts. PS: Here are the names of the girls who preformed the cuts! Brenda and Patty. -Update: I went to get them a haircut elsewhere the very next day! With no problems whatsoever!! I just want to prove my point. All my boy's heads were and are clean! read more

Been here a few times. I've been happy with my haircut every time! What more could I ask for? Different hairstylist each time, they always ask specifically what I want, and double check to make sure they do exactly what you ask. Ideal place for a simple trim. I saw you can check in online but I never do, just walk in. read more

Used to love this place but since it shut dow is has really went downhill.. very poor customer service.Would recommend going around the corner to sports clips for an overall better experience with no miserable hair stylists. read more

Service is poor and location is understaffed. I was frustated at check-out a month ago because I mentioned and showed a picture of the posting of the Woodland flyer for a half price special and was denied in Natomas. I live in Woodland and have received this discount a few times the past months between Natomas and Market West. I have been loyal during this time to go out of my way since I trusted the service from Great Clips. Long story short I checked-in online (Woodland was still listed closed) dealt through mid-day traffic by SMF airport to Natomas. I received a very good haircut and when it was time to pay, my request fell on deaf ears. My stylist was ignored by her 2 co-workers when asked since she was unaware after returning from time off of work. I'm disappointed at the outcome and currently considering taking my business to Sport Clips of Woodland Gateway since I live 5 minutes from that location. read more

Brought my mom in with a blunt bob, less that flattering haircut. Gave some direction to pull the weight off the end, give her some slight layers. She seems very happy with it. Very friendly staff. Wait time was about the 5 mins quoted. It's a nice cut for what you'd expect for 14 bucks. Chelsea rocks! read more
