Great Clips

Debbie is my homegirl. My buddies always say that I could be in a Great Clips commercial because I always walk out of here with a spectacular haircut. I’ve spent $ 150 for a haircut and it does not come close to the job that Debbie does.
That’s my word and I’m sticking to it.

nothing special, just average

I do not have a problem going to a Great Clips to get my hair cut, and have done so many times. I have long straight hair, so I don’t need to get much done for it to look good. I stopped in this Great Clips to get a trim and a little bit of layers and the stylist (John I believe) was nice enough, but just doesn’t have hair-​cutting skills or maybe it is lack of interest. Another one of his customers came in just after I had sat down and the stylist said, «oh it’ll only be a couple more minutes.» I should have known that was a problem. He just chopped a chunk of hair off right in the front. Not only that, he didn’t even make it even! I kept my hair in a bun and clip (because he cut it so short in the front) until I could go to someone else who had some training that could fix my disaster. I guess you get what you pay for!

Katie is great and minimal wait times

«Look at your beautiful hair. Love you, baby, have a good day!»
How can you not like getting your hair cut for $ 8 at a place where your stylist calls you baby and treats you like a best friend.
Great Clips is known for budget haircuts, but they do their job right here… and with a smile.
What I (and the stylists) highly recommend is knowing what you want when you come in. Bring in a photograph, a magazine image, or a good idea of exactly what you want so they know how to cut it to your liking.

I too have simple needs for my hair and these places generally do a fine job. My only complaint is that it seems like $ 16 ($ 14 plus $ 2 tip) is a lot for 15 minutes of attention.

Friends!
This Great Clips location is GREAT. I know they are under new management as of late and the entire hair cut experience is wonderful because of the recent change!
This change has been spearheaded by the wonderful and ever-​bubbly manager Lauren Orwig! She not only has magic fingers, but makes every haircut experience utterly enjoyable. Her talent keeps me coming back time and time again. I refuse to go anywhere else, and trust me, my hair is my life!

I found LICE crawling on a magazine while waiting for haircut!!!
I will be contacting the Fulton County Health Dept in the morning!!!

I have a real easy haircut/​style and don’t like to pay a lot to get it cut. BUT, the old addage is true, you get what you pay for. I’ve had decent haircuts here, I’ve had crappy haircuts here. I go there because it’s the closet haircut place near me, and I’m in a hurry. If I have time, I prefer to go to SportClips. Another reason I like SportClips better, this last time, the manager charged me $ 2 just to rinse out my hair. SportClips does it free all day long.

***This review is for Lauren, I have never been to anyone else***
How talented do you have to be to please both my mom and myself? Pretty darn talented. We’ve even brought my cousin and her hip length Jew-​fro to Lauren’s magic scissors. And Lauren is always ready to step up to the plate and help you look your best.
The salon is always clean and the wait usually isn’t too long. Lauren is quick and efficient. She is also very funny. If you choose this location and Lauren is working, I would recommend waiting for her. She is the best! And hard to miss now that she has pink hair! If you want a quick wash and blow dry, or trim, or even something more in-​depth, Lauren is your girl! And it’s Great Clips, so it’s super affordable!

This place sucks and I don’t mean make you happy longtime sucks, but hoover, sucking the life out of you sucks! Wow, what a run-​on sentence that was. My grammar is legendary today.
Seriously, I keep my hair buzzed. How hard is it to listen to direction? «I need you use the clippers and go #1 all the way around including sideburns.» Then, I proceed to have the chica crash and burn all the way to me getting scalp burn in some spots and having hair patches in others.
I can do it better myself, but sometimes I just want someone else to do it you know?
Not here. Not ever again. Sooks!!!

Today I had the worst haircut experience of my life. I had just flown in from Charlotte and it was toward the end of the day, so I decided to get a haircut instead of going back to my office. For a few weeks I had been entertaining the idea of getting all of my hair buzzed off and I finally decided to do it.
Since I was caught up in the moment (and because I didn’t want to talk myself out of it) I went to the Great Clips near my house instead of going to my normal salon. In my mind this was going to be a very simple procedure. I mean, if Britney Spears could do it to herself, surely a Great Clips stylist could do it to me. I wasn’t expecting this, but today I met someone more stupid than Britney.
There was no wait when I walked in and she started to trim around the sides of my head. I did have some product in and she used shears to trim the top because the clippers kept getting stuck. She kept asking me if I thought it was short enough. I kept responding «I don’t know» because it was hard for me to picture until she was completely done. At one point she got frustrated and said that she didn’t need my attitude. That was the wrong thing to say.
First, I wasn’t giving an attitude. This was something new to me and I couldn’t tell her yes or no until I saw it all done. Second, she apparently got upset because she thought she was done (meaning, she used clippers on the side and cut the top with shears… she said she told me that she wouldn’t be able to do the top because of my hair product… unfortunately I thought her intention was to cut most of it with shears and then shave it all so it looked even). Third, it’s not like they don’t have shampoo stations. I repeatedly told her that if she had to charge me for more than one cut that was okay. She eventually told me it wasn’t the money, rather it was the time. My response to that was «If you didn’t have time to see me why did you have me sit down?»
So, after all this she has the nerve to tell me that she doesn’t need my attitude??? I looked at her and cussed her from here to hell. Needless to say they asked me to leave, which I gladly did (even though my hair was only halfway cut and looking awful).
I don’t normally go to places like this, but there had been times when I only needed a trim and I had actually been to this location before. As a matter of fact, I used to recommend it to people if they only needed something simple done. Not anymore. It doesn’t get any simpler than a buzz cut and their employees can’t even do that right.
Great Clips, I don’t appreciate you.

I go to Great Clips because it’s close to home, affordable, and I end up loving whatever my stylist (Laura) does to my hair.
I try to not be too picky when I go in, because my hair is fine and thin, but after she cuts and styles my hair, it looks full and fabulous. Laura’s truly an artist.
The location is clean and bright, located in the same plaza as Publix, Barnes and Noble and Linens-​N-​Things. Parking can be a bit of a trick during lunch time, but it’s manageable.
I would definitely recommend Great Clips and Laura to anyone.
