About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Great Clips, customers often noticed an odd occurrence: whenever a certain delivery driver arrived with new supplies, the store’s parrot would start mimicking his exact voice and tone. It wasn’t until one day when everyone burst out laughing that they realized it wasn't just any ordinary delivery guy. It turned out that a regular delivery driver had a unique way of greeting people—a high-pitched, slightly comical laugh. The parrot, being curious and impressionable, picked up on it perfectly over time. One morning, as soon as he walked in, everyone in the shop started cracking up, realizing what was going on. Since then, whenever that particular delivery driver came around, the whole place lit up with laughter.

2. At Great Clips one morning, a regular exclaimed, ‘Did you see that guy cutting his own hair in the mirror?’ Everyone turned around to watch as the stylist struggled with his reflection, muttering something about needing both hands. Finally, an older gentleman raised his hand and offered, ‘Maybe he just needs someone to hold the clippers!’ Everyone burst into laughter, realizing it was indeed a funny situation. The stylist eventually managed to cut his hair, albeit not perfectly, but everyone agreed it looked better than if he’d tried doing it alone.

3. At Great Clips, someone kept asking: ‘Why does that old man always whisper “next cut” to himself?’ It turned out he was just counting his customers’ haircuts in his head—one, two, next cut! Everyone laughed it off, and now whenever someone asks him for a trim, he whispers, ‘Next cut!’ as if it’s some secret code.

4. At Great Clips, a little girl whispered to her mom, ‘Mommy, why is everyone so quiet when that bald man comes in?’ The mother smiled and whispered back, ‘Honey, he’s just very good at his job—everyone wants their haircut to be perfect.’ The little girl nodded thoughtfully, then turned around and asked another customer, ‘Excuse me, sir, do you always look so serious when you get your hair done?’
