Miguel was excellent. Even though he is multi millionaire (according to Gemini) he still offer a great haircut. And a lovely person to talk to. 5 stars!

Poorly dealt by lady in the saloon. She said rudely first she will cut the hair and then will apply the discount and if it will not work you have to pay full $30/- plus taxes. If you don’t know what are you promoting then you should not issue the coupons and wasted people time and money. Thanks

Miguel is absolutely amazing! His attention to detail, skill, and sense of style are top-notch. He really listens to what you want and always delivers even better results than expected. My haircut looks clean, fresh, and perfectly suits my look every time. On top of that, he’s friendly, professional, and makes the whole experience enjoyable. Highly recommend Miguel if you want the best stylist in town!

Extremely Rude and Unprofessional Experience
I had one of the worst experiences at this Great Clips location. I checked in online in advance and arrived half an hour before closing (they close at 8 PM). There were only two people ahead of me, but the stylist refused to take me in.
When you check in, you provide your phone number, so if they can’t take customers, they should at least call and inform instead of letting people come all the way there just to be turned away. That’s basic courtesy. If they don’t plan to accept check-ins near closing time, they should disable the online check-in option at least an hour before closing.
To make it worse, the person there was extremely rude — he told me, “Go complain to our management office in Florida,” as if he couldn’t care less. Totally unprofessional attitude and a complete lack of respect for customers.
They clearly don’t value customers’ time or satisfaction. Very bad service — I strongly do not recommend this location.

I checked in online at Great Clips and came from quite far, arriving before 5:00 PM. But when I got there, the staff told me they were closed and couldn’t take me, even though I had already checked in. It was really disappointing and unexpected — I made the effort to get there on time, so this experience was very frustrating.
