I have really long fine hair, and it was pretty dry and damaged at the ends because I usually only get a cut about twice a year. Luckily, Alex was able to fit me in the next day. He'not like any hair stylist I've been to before. He was very inviting from the moment I walked in despite me being about 15 minutes late (I called ahead). He even gave me a soft, friendly double handshake when he introduced himself. Then he asked me what I had in mind for my hair. Showing sincere interest in knowing what I saw for my hair, unlike other hair stylists that may do what they want or think is best. He gave great input too and recommended a blunt cut for my fine hair, which turned out wonderfully by the way! When it came to styling time, I asked him to surprise me. I was intrigued by his blow-dry technique with the round brush, it added a nice curl to my hair, and I've never seen it done like that before. When he had me open my eyes for the final reveal, I felt like a contestant on a makeover show haha. My hair looked like it was straight out of a shampoo/conditioner commercial -- so light feeling and shiny. I would recommend going to Alex not only for his artistic hair skills but also because there was no the awkward conversation during the haircut which I usually dread, with Alex, it felt like I was talking to an old friend and the time went by so fast! It's apparent that he loves what he does and he takes pride in his work. I plan on revisiting him in a few months for a trim, which I know my hair will be happy about since I wouldn't usually go back so soon.

Sam was the one who cut my hair. In terms of efficiency, availability, and flexibility to get me in sooner than my appointment I give a 5/5. I brought in some reference photos and when my hair was fully cut and styled I wasn't sure if I liked it or not. I walked out feeling egg like, but after washing, and styling on my own I was a little happier with it. Unfortunately, in my opinion, having your hair cut is an intimate experience where meshing with your stylist is important (at least to me) and it all felt very impersonal. It felt rather rushed, and at times I felt the blade get stuck in my hair because too much was being cut with very swift motions. I have thick hair, and smaller pieces are best to work a blade through. I am grateful to have been fit in sooner, to have cut off my hair, but I give the hair cutting aspect a 3/5.

This particular GREAT CLIPS gives credibility to their name! They are a GREAT salon! Customer satisfaction is their main goal. Each stylist is passionate about their specialty in hair design. Not only do they care about the individual, but they reach out to the community who's budgets cant afford continual upkeep. This salon just participated in an outreach called "FIRST Day" where 560 San Juan School District students received FREE Backpacks stuffed with grade appropriate supplies, pants, shirts, shoes AND FREE Haircuts. GREAT Clips stylists worked feverishly cutting the hair of these kids and getting them ready for their FIRST Day of school! I love the passion and heartbeat of this group of people! read more

I was pleasantly surprised when I walked in without and appointment and did not have to wait long to get an excellant cut from Cassandra, a very professional, and friendly stylist. She listened to what I was wanting and I got exactly that at an affordable price and in a short amount of time. I would recommend Cassandra to everyone I know that is looking for a quick, yet professional cut without having to pay a high dollar salon. I will definately return. I posted on the Madison Ave too because I am not sure which one is at corner of Madison and Hazel in the Prominade. read more
