About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Great Clips salon in downtown Portland, customers often overheard an unusual announcement during their haircuts. ‘Attention, please,’ said the voice over the speaker one day. ‘Our new neighbor has moved in next door and is offering free cookies every Tuesday.’ Word quickly spread around town that on Tuesdays, after getting your hair cut, you could pop next door for freshly baked treats. Soon enough, a delivery driver commented jokingly, 'I think I'll just get my haircut here every week!' And so it became known as the place where not only hair was clipped, but also friendships were made—over cookies.
2. At Great Clips in sunny Miami, a regular noticed something peculiar one morning. While waiting for his trim, he spotted a mysterious package left on the reception counter. Curious, he asked the stylist if anyone had claimed it. She shrugged and said it wasn’t hers. The stylist shrugged and suggested maybe it was a lost delivery. Suddenly, a delivery driver rushed in, frantically searching for something. Turns out, it was his lunch—left behind in his hurry. Everyone laughed, and the regular got his haircut while sharing a free sandwich.
3. At Great Clips in Chicago, while getting her usual trim, a little girl giggled when she saw the reflection of her hairdresser's name tag in the mirror—it read ‘Mr. Mustache’. The girl’s mom burst out laughing and whispered, ‘Oh no, honey, that says “Mr. Mustache”‘—but it was too late. The whole salon erupted into giggles, including Mr. Mustache himself who blushed and quickly turned away. Everyone had such a good laugh that day, even Mr. Mustache finally grew comfortable with his nickname.
4. At Great Clips in San Francisco, while waiting for their turn, a pair of dogs began intensely sniffing each other’s leashes—clearly intrigued by the scent of another grooming station's special shampoo. Suddenly, an elderly lady walked up and asked if she could borrow some water from one of the stations. Turns out, her dog had accidentally ingested something from that very same shampoo! With everyone laughing, they managed to rinse off the curious canine—and Great Clips became known as the place where even pets get pampered with a side of comedy.
