Great Clips in other cities:
I went in for my usual haircut that I have had done at other great clips locations. Throughout the entire cut, Ami asked me only one question (what size clipper) at the beginning. She never used her second hand to steady my head once. She did not tie a neck band around me. It honestly felt like she was hacking away with zero care, frequently bumping my head with the clippers. At one point it seemed like she forgot she had to finish my haircut by trimming the top. She also left my side burns uneven and left the back crooked. This was the worst haircut of my life and Ive cut my own hair.
Had to get a haircut before work for a wake and funeral the next day. Ami did an amazing job since I had butchered it the day before trying to do my COVID era at home styling. It had been years since Ive actually gotten a professional haircut and she did not disappoint. The place was clean, professional, and fast. I highly recommend going here! Just remember to make an appointment using their Great Clips app.
The only positive about this great clips is the speed. They clearly only want to get people in and out as fast as possible. I have gone twice and have had poor haircuts and even worse experiences. They fly through the haircut without listening to your requests or even asking what you want. I have had two separate stylists too and they both were not good. I also walked in to 2/3 of the staff not wearing masks even when the sign on their door says masks are required. I had to go home and fix up my paid haircut because they didnt even touch my sideburns or ears. Very poor.
I got my haircut right at closing time on the eve of a holiday. I was super sheepish but I checked in online and got a text from the website to walk in so it seemed ok. My stylist was Stasha and she was not miffed at the slightest. She was super jovial and regaled me with weird and hilarious stories of her kids and their superhero proclivities. Will be back.
Heather is simply the greatest. Not only can she cut hair very good, she is willing to teach you how to style your hair AND recommend products for you to use. I’ve never had a better experience with a stylist before Heather. The store is also very clean and everyone is very friendly. I can not recommend Heather and Great Clips enough!! Great job!!!!
I have a thick, curly hair and went there only for a haircut. Not only didnt I get the haircut I asked for, I was also charged a styling fee that I didnt ask for just because the hairdresser Ami used a flat iron to help her in doing her job. The way she touched my hair and styled it shows shes definitely not prepared or not willing to work on my hair type. A friend had told me before that they dont work well with people of colors hair but I didnt want to believe it. Now I know what he meant.
Great clips has always been a go-to and finding a good one is hard bcuz each one varies by staff but honestly this is such an amazing place with rly good staff! The ladies were super sweet and kept an engaging conversation going and made sure that i was happy with my cut! On my recent visit, I wasn’t happy with the way my hair turned out so I went back after a couple days and they re-did it for me at no extra charge and had a phenomenal attitude with asking me what I didn’t like and how I wanted it and not just try to chop chop and send me away! Will def be coming back for sure! Shoutout to heather and ami thank you guys so much!
Hairdresser took very long time, and still managed to do a poor job. Looked very choppy, sideburns different lengths on each side with glasses. Some people who work here are good, but there is enormous inconsistency in the competency from one employee to the next here.

2022-03-22Went with my friend and my god daughter to get a trim. The lady I had did wonderful with me. My god daughter is 5 and couldve lopped and haggard her bangs better then the barber did. Her bangs look as though they were ripped off with those scissors that cut designs into paper.

2022-04-10Literally asked for a 1/2 inch off of the top and a 2 on the sides and back. The guy couldnt measure, he proceeds to cut 2 inches off of the top. This is simple and basic pre-school stuff. How can you screw up such an easy hair cut. I would leave a zero if I could.

2019-01-21I had a great experience my first time here. I had been looking for a clean, unexpensive place where to get a quick haircut near harvest market and I found this place, perfect for what I wanted. I didnt make an appointment, I didnt know I had to make one, I wasnt told about it when I called earlier that day. I had to wait for about an hour, no problem because I had to do some shopping at the market. I was also glad they are open late.

2021-11-28Holly and Heather at the Champaign location (Neil St) do my kids haircuts and are absolutely outstanding! They take their time and ensure the best job is done, every single time. Would highly recommend them, as well as this location.

2021-08-01First time back to this location in two years after my preferred stylists at my usual salon left. Really liked Nicole! She took me quickly and we had a fun conversation while she expertly cut my hair in the pixie cut I requested. Will definitely return to see Nicole.
