About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular walked into Great Clips and asked the stylist, ‘Did you see that strange man with long hair sitting outside?’ The stylist replied, ‘No, I haven’t.’ Then, every day after that, an unknown man appeared in the same spot, always wearing a fedora and never speaking. Finally, one day, the owner decided to ask him why he came every morning. With a twinkle in his eye, the man said, 'I’m waiting for my appointment.' Everyone burst out laughing—turns out, he was just another delivery driver who’d forgotten his name on the schedule.

2. A delivery driver pulled up to Great Clips one afternoon with an unusual load. As he unloaded boxes from his truck, he noticed something odd in the backseat—a small wooden chest, wrapped in old fabric. The delivery driver opened it curiously and found inside a collection of ancient hair clips, each one more intricate than the last. A regular customer walked in just then, asking for her usual trim. The owner looked at him quizzically and said, ‘I think you missed your package—looks like someone else wanted these hair clips pretty badly!’

3. While getting a trim one day, a regular leaned over to whisper, 'You know, I keep seeing weird things happen around here.' The stylist raised an eyebrow but said nothing. Later that week, a delivery driver pulled up to Great Clips in his truck, loaded down with boxes—none of which had labels. The stylist shrugged and asked what was inside. ‘Just some mysterious stuff,’ replied the driver, grinning mysteriously. A few days later, a neighbor popped into Great Clips for a haircut. Over coffee, she whispered, “Did you hear? They found those unmarked boxes were full of free samples from a local bakery!” Everyone laughed, realizing it was just another quirky tale from their friendly neighborhood salon.

4. One Saturday morning, while waiting for her haircut, a little girl pointed excitedly at the ceiling. ‘Mommy,’ she whispered, ‘why is that bird singing in here?’ The stylist looked up and smiled. 'Oh, that's not a bird,' she said gently. 'That's just our air conditioning unit humming along.' The little girl giggled, relieved, and settled back into her seat. As she did, another voice piped up from behind them: 'Actually, it’s probably that guy outside whistling!' Everyone laughed, including the delivery driver who’d been trying to serenade his neighbor across the street.
