About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. It was an unusually quiet morning in Great Clips when a delivery driver pulled up with a box of neon-colored hair dye. As he approached the counter, everyone noticed his hands were shaking slightly. ‘What’s wrong?’ asked one of the stylists curiously. The delivery driver took a deep breath and confessed, ‘I’m allergic to this stuff.’ He pointed to the box. Everyone laughed, including the stylist who joked, “Guess you’ll be bald today!” But then someone offered him a cup of coffee, and soon enough, they were all laughing over shared stories.
2. A regular customer of Great Clips noticed something peculiar one day—every time he got his haircut, the stylist would hum a different tune from an old radio show. The more he thought about it, the more convinced he became that the same theme played every Wednesday afternoon. One day, a delivery driver mentioned overhearing the same song while waiting for his package. It turned out they both recognized it as ‘The Shadow’, a classic mystery radio drama from the 1940s. From then on, whenever someone new walked in, the whole place would erupt into nostalgic chatter about old-time radio shows. Great Clips became known not just for haircuts but also for its weekly ‘radio show’ discussion club.
3. At precisely noon every Monday, a mysterious voice would come over Great Clips’ intercom: ‘Please excuse our temporary inconvenience—your stylist has been called away for urgent training.’ One day, an anxious neighbor rushed in, needing a last-minute trim before his barbecue. When he returned, everyone was laughing—his hair now matched the color scheme of Great Clips’ logo exactly! The stylist had accidentally left him with a bright orange fade. But instead of fuming, he grinned and said, 'Guess I’ll just have to be the life of the party!'
4. In Great Clips, a small plastic dinosaur appeared on the counter one morning. No one knew where it came from or whose it was. Over the next few days, more dinosaurs joined their fellow prehistoric traveler—all different colors and sizes. Soon enough, customers started bringing in their own toys, leaving behind teddy bears, action figures, even a tiny plastic unicorn. Before long, Great Clips became known as the salon with the toy menagerie, and everyone agreed that getting a haircut there was like visiting a magical playground.
