About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Great Clips, a regular always arrived around closing time with a big box under his arm. He’d ask for the longest line and then patiently wait until everyone else had left. No one ever asked why. Finally, one day he approached the stylist with a mischievous smile. ‘I’ve been waiting here every week,’ he said, ‘but never told anyone why.’ The stylist raised an eyebrow. ‘Because,’ replied the man, ‘it’s where I pick up my weekly haircut from the delivery driver!’ Everyone burst into laughter, including the stylist who realized she’d been trimming locks off boxes of new products all along.

2. At Great Clips, customers often noticed an unusual sight—a small dog would occasionally bark excitedly every time a certain delivery driver approached the counter. It turned out that the little dog was best friends with the delivery guy’s pug back home. Every time he arrived, both dogs recognized each other through the window and started a virtual ‘hello’ from across the street. The whole neighborhood thought it was adorable—and so did the staff at Great Clips.

3. At Great Clips, one day a customer asked the stylist, ‘Why does every delivery driver here look so nervous?’ The stylist smiled and whispered back, ‘They’re not nervous— they’re just waiting for their turn on your chair!’ The customer laughed, realizing it was her own long queue that made everyone seem anxious.

4. At Great Clips, a sign above the counter read: ‘Last Haircut of the Day—$10 Off.’ But no one ever believed it until they saw the same delivery driver getting his hair cut there every night. Finally, someone asked him why he always came here. The delivery driver grinned, ‘It’s not just any haircut—it’s the best sleep I get all week!’
