About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while waiting for his turn, a regular noticed an unusual package on the counter. Curious, he picked it up—it was a small wooden box wrapped in old newspaper. Inside lay a mysterious note: 'Take care of this.' No one claimed ownership. The regular opened the note and read: ‘If you open me, I’ll bring joy.’ He took out a tiny comb with glittering teeth, which started singing a happy tune when shaken. Word spread quickly—everyone wanted their own dancing comb! Soon, Great Clips became known as the place where even your haircut could be musical.

2. While getting a trim one afternoon, a regular found himself chatting with the stylist about local gossip. Suddenly, he noticed something peculiar hanging from her rearview mirror—a tiny plastic toy dinosaur that seemed to nod along as she chatted. ‘Did you see that?’ the regular whispered, pointing at the dinosaur. ‘I thought it was just moving because of the air conditioning.’ The stylist smiled and shook her head. ‘No, I programmed him to react when I mention certain customers,’ she said, winking. As they laughed, another customer walked in—complete with a giant foam banana on his head.

3. While getting a trim one day, a regular asked the stylist, ‘Do you ever wonder why Great Clips always seems so clean?’ The stylist smiled and replied, ‘Well, sir, it’s because our manager is a bit of a germophobe!’ The customer laughed heartily, shaking his head in amusement as he left, thinking to himself that maybe Great Clips was just a tad too clean for its own good.

4. While getting a trim one morning, a regular spotted something peculiar in the hair clippings bin—an old, dusty keyring shaped like a tiny American flag. Curious, she showed it to the stylist, who shrugged and said it was probably from an old van or truck. Later that day, a delivery driver mentioned he’d seen similar keys on his boss’s clipboard. Turns out, Great Clips had once been a mobile barbershop, and the keys were souvenirs from their first clients—a fun fact that made everyone smile.
