I had been getting my hair cut at an expensive salon for years. I've been growing it out for the last year and finally decided to get a trim to clean up the ends. I bit the bullet and went to Great Clips, and I got the haircut I wanted for the cost of a tip at the previous place. Karla was great; she listened to what I wanted and made good conversation.
Tips:
- Check in online or on the Great Clips app. It'll let you know what the wait times are at locations near you and hold your place in line.
- Normally they just spray down your hair with a water bottle, but you can get a full shampoo and conditioner for just $3 more.
- Be clear and say exactly what you want. Bring a picture or say "I want one inch off" and show her where that is on your hair.
- The only reason why I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is that they don't blow dry your hair at the end. That means you have to go home and blow dry it yourself. It's also hard to judge whether you got the cut you wanted when your hair is still wet.
