About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while a regular was getting his usual trim, he noticed something odd coming from outside. The familiar hum of clippers gave way to an eerie whirring sound, almost like a swarm of bees had taken over the shop next door. Curious, our regular looked out the window and saw that the Great Clips across the street had opened early for some mysterious reason. As he watched, a delivery driver walked in with boxes full of clipper parts, muttering under his breath. Turns out, it wasn’t bees—just a technical glitch that kept everyone laughing and talking about for weeks.
2. While waiting for her usual haircut one afternoon, a regular heard an unusual humming sound coming from behind the counter. Everyone else seemed oblivious, but it grew louder with each passing minute. Finally, the sound stopped as abruptly as it had started. The stylist turned around with a big smile and said, ‘Oh, that was just my new humming chair!’ A regular laughed and remarked, ‘Next time I’ll bring earplugs.’
3. While sitting in his usual spot, a regular saw something peculiar happening behind the counter. All of a sudden, he noticed an elderly delivery driver trying to discreetly slip into one of the styling chairs. The poor guy looked like he’d rather be anywhere else than getting his hair done! Turns out, the old fella had mistaken Great Clips for a retirement home and thought someone would comb his hair for free.
4. While waiting for her usual haircut one day, a regular smelled something strange—like freshly baked cookies coming from the backroom. Curious, she peeked around the corner and saw an old man in a chef’s hat mixing dough with a comb. Turns out he was the owner’s uncle, who dropped by every now and then to bake his famous cookie recipe. By the time she left, both her hair and stomach were happy.
