I am someone that regularly gets a haircut on a monthly basis and have a few dedicated barbers that I normally frequent. However, I've been a fan of "Great Clips" as their stylists have always done a wonderful job to the many various locations. The one I am focusing on is one of their two locations in Rancho Cordova; this is at 2350 Sunrise Blvd. This particular Great Clips is in a fairly busy strip mall that neighbors "Chipotle", and "Pieology Pizzeria". Parking can get busy due to the vast amount of food establishments in the area. Since I work in Rancho Cordova, I arrived right after work at around 5:15pm. The best way to get yourself a stylist in a quick turnaround time is to check-in on the Great Clips mobile app. What makes this convenient is that is shows estimated times in all of the locations in a certain radius. But what really drew me into coming here is that I received a Facebook notification offering a discounted coupon of $12.99 for a haircut. Normally the charge is around $22.00 so this was a fairly decent price when major competitors and barbers charge in between $20-30. Once checking in, my stylist was able to seat me right away as there no other customers inside. What I particularly like about Great Clips is that no matter which location you visit, they keep a record of how exactly you would like your hair to be cut/styled. For me it is a low-fade 1/2" with a number 7 on top. My entire haircut only took about 15 minutes and I was done by 5:30pm. Best of all, they do accept cash, debit, credit, and Apple Pay/Google Pay. All in all, this was an above average experience. My stylist was non-talkative but in the past, I've gotten stylists that want to make conversation with you. I am a social person so if someone is in the mood to talk, I am all for it. To sum things up, the Rancho Cordova (Sunrise) "Great Clips" was bright, spacious, clean, and convenient. With that said and done, I am giving this location an above average four stars. read more

Viola and Krystina are my fav stylist. They always take care of me know the look I want. Quality and great personalities. Love this place read more

Hair cut good quality by lady with the red hair! Thank you!! Customer service not good, don't normally write reviews but Krystina(the other stylist) had me wait for a whole hour i checked in online and came in she said you have to also check in inside but 2 people came after me and walked right in and she she Took them in (without checking in the front) very biased!! and i was waiting with my child. Well at least the good haircut made up for it read more

I take my grandson there & have always found the service to be outstanding, the cuts styled exactly to our specifics & every stylist friendly & confidently skilled. We've been doing walkin appts & as luck would have it [due to timing or not] the longest our wait time has been was 10 mins one visit & it's usually considerably less. I do recommend using the check in feature which I plan to utilize this month. read more

Very disappointed. Last time was upset how they cut my hair and went in again to give another chance since the location is so convenient and it looks bad again. read more

Less than on star. The guy stylist in there does not listen; with his electric clipper, after hearing me say, "You remember me from last time, I'm the guy growing out my hair, the guy with green hair. I want long hair, I need the hair under the edges and the split ends cleaned up", ruined 6 months of me patiently waiting for growth, by putting his electric clipper to my hair above the ear effectively taking 3/4" of growth in less than a minute. Of course, the rest of my head then had to match. This was my second appointment with him. He suggested he remembered me from before. He either intentionally mislead me and did not remember me, or he's not competent enough a hair stylist to remember the wants and needs of his customers. I'm 65 years old, and trying, with no help from the male stylist at this shop, to grow out my hair. For the first time in 45 years I am letting my hair grow; I intend my hair to say something very specific about me. This morning, Great Clips at Sunrise and Coloma in Rancho Cordova, took that away from me. When finished, he comped the haircut, knowing he screwed up. They should give me free hair styling for a year to make up for what he took from me. If you value your long hair, I recommend that you don't get within a mile of this shop. Absolutely, stay away I'll never return. And I'll make sure the next stylist KNOWS what I want, what I need my hair to say about me, before I sit in their chair. My visit this morning was a terrible experience. Every time I've looked in the mirror since then, I have seen what I don't like (short hair), what I hoped I'd never see again. I am sure I'll experience the same reaction to myself in the mirror, at least well into the fall. Again, less than one star. Negative stars. read more

This is a good place to go to, but once they cut my daughters hair and it was uneven, I still recommend coming here.

To the two ladies who saved my morning - you were WONDERFUL! I ran in there on my way to a wedding in Tahoe and asked said If we could do two quick appointments for my kids who were in the wedding. They knocked an hour off my morning which helped so incredibly much. I wish I could remember the names of the ladies, but the woman who cut and faded my son's hair took only 5 minutes to do and it came out wonderfully. He kept fussing with it and she even took him back 3 times to hair spray his hair some more so it would stay for our long trip while the other woman curled my daughters hair. The girl took only 20 min to curl and French braid her hair. I am so grateful for them. Thank you for making that day a little less stressful. Would recommend this particular spot to anyone. *edit - I saw in a previous post a photo of the lady who did my son's hair and it looks like her name might be Regan. She has beautiful curly red hair. read more

Hoped for a better cut. It wasn't busy and had very little conversation with the stylist.

I've been coming to get my haircut here with my entire family for some time and would estimate we have had at least fifty haircuts here in past five years. Nine out of ten times, the haircuts are excellent. Considering most chains struggle to find and keep good talent, I would argue this location is following a formula for success as most stylists have been fabulous. Five stars would have been justified for a 10/10, but hey, you get what you pay for and IMHO, this location is above average. read more

Family member went as a walk in no waiting .The stylist did a good job on his hair will be returning

I am only giving a 2 star because yes they did a good job at trimming hair but they over charged. My 9 year old niece was just getting her hair trimmed and was charged for an adult haircut. We were told it was because they couldn't tell she was a child. My niece is not developed and wears kids clothes size 7/8. I don't understand how she could be confused as an adult. They said they can't refund the difference but give a 2 dollar discount the next time we come in. read more

Bad exp my 17 year old went in for a hair cut I was at work, I came home and he was so upset the new gal Alicia of 3 months experience had chopped his hair off and ran through it with a lawn mower. He asked her to take off 2 inches mind u his hair length was 5 inches and it jeans he should have had 3 inches left but no it's all different lengths So I called them and Vanessa answered I told her the situation My expectations: oh no let's see what we can do to make this right Actual : oh I was there I heard the consultation he agreed to it happily and when he left he was fine with it. Because he is 17 and didn't see the back of his hair properly and is t one to make an ordeal out of it. But me I will when u mess up. GREAT CLIPS teach your workers what good old customer service is about because I won't be bringing any of my four children there again, if I have to drive another 20 mins out I will. read more

This is Worse haircut in 5 minute and you are Done, no Courteous, just In n Out. I was literally laughing WTF is this shop. If you looking for bettter haircut, this is not the place. read more

Got basic short style haircut for $17. Nothing special. Could find much cheaper service in the neighborhood.

I have no reason to go below 5 stars. Very clean, new building, friendly staff and no wait time. I already had a short shaved head and just needed a clean up so the rating on a haircut might be inconclusive at this time but my "stylist" knew exactly what I meant when I terrible described my request and performed quickly Not to mention being brand new the $6 hair cut can't be beat. Maybe I'll let my hair grow a few months and then see how the handle that mess read more

Every time my family comes here they leave with uneven, choppy haircuts. One of the stylists had to come "fix" my daughter's hair after another stylist cut it into a mess. My husband came home looking like he had a mullet. To top it off, their prices are high. Trust me, go somewhere else. read more

I went in last week for a trim and Kay did a wonderful job:) thanks again Kay you were great!

Bad experience tonight at this location. I have been coming to this location for years. I take both of my sons who are both special needs. Tonight. My youngest felt uneasy with the woman who was going to cut his hair. The woman, after some minor chat with me regarding the style of my boys haircut proceeded to get frustrated as my son was a bit uneasy while sitting down at the station ready for his haircut. She got flustered at him and proceeded to tell me that she couldn't quite assure me she'd be able to cut his hair as he, a 4 year old autistic child, my son, was "not cooperating" according to her standards. I proceeded to tell her that my son was autistic and he would calm down in a minute. He wasn't screaming or crying. He simply wasn't comfortable right away and refused to sit on the kiddie booster. While I pulled my son off the the booster to talk to him the woman called the next person REFUSING to deal with my son and give him a haircut. My other son who is also special needs noticed this and knew his brother was refused a haircut. SAD SAD SAD excuse. I don't want you reprimanded, you know who you are. I just want you to know my sons are my world and I left your establishment sad that you refused to give my boy a haircut after I clearly said to you he was autistic. As we left the store my 4yr old kept saying he was ready for his turn, he cried as he was ready and was looking forward to his lollipop, but by then you had called someone else to your station , another kid who was a handful of years older than my kid. Thank you for exposing my oldest and my youngest to the kind of people that may look down on them for being special needs. Thank you for allowing me to experience that as a Father, I love my kids regardless of their condition. read more

The girl cut my hair uneven. Highly dissatisfied and never ever paying for a cheap hair cut again :( I take pride and joy into my hair and it was finally the length I wanted it. I told her 1 1/2 inch at the most and she chopped like three inches, not to mention how in even it is! UPDATE! The store manager called me after reading my Yelp review and asked for me to come in so she can help me out. Such a very sweet nice lady! I was unsure of going in at first because I'm usually not the type of person to cause a ruckus but she trimmed my hair for me and made it 10x better! Thank you so much Bailey :) read more

Wow, some lady that I believe was the manager or seemed in charge cut my hair, she seemed upset that I had a coupon... I'm not cheap, gave a nice tip even though the haircut was crap, came home and had to trim with scissors for about 10 minutes... disappointing, spend $10-$20 more and go somewhere legit, seriously, this has changed my mind on "it will grow out and its easy"... no joke... go here for a fight with a weed-wacker! read more

Heather is now three for three. She is fantastic. A huge asset to this location. Looking forward to the next haircut which I'm sure will be perfect as well. read more

I've given this place a few chances and each time they don't cut my hair how I want. I always get "oh let me try this, it'll look great", and its the opposite of what I've wanted. They try to do what they think will look good instead of listening to the customer. After my last hair cut I was so upset, I went back to have them fix it and it was made even worse. It's also super uneven and pieces were left uncut. Unless you don't care how they do your hair, don't go here. read more

You know your 1 yr old baby boy needs a haircut when people say "oh what a pretty little girl" over and over. Haha ok, ok, mama gets the point. Had fully intended to take Little Man to EJs Little People for his first cut, but by the time I got around to it, it was already their closing hours. Then i saw Great Clips, and thought to just ask if they cut hair on little 1 yr old rugrats. And they sure do. We got Alyssa who was very sweet, patient and did a perfect job. She even remembered to grab a lock of hair for his baby book. Thank you Alyssa! A+++. We'll be back in the future! read more

Today my experience was the best ever!!! I got Gianna to cut my hair and she totally 200% did a great great job on my brother and I !! I would look forward to coming to Great Clips at Rivergate !! Gianna is totally wonderful and cuts hair so fast and so great!!! Thanks Gianna for the awesome job you've done on us !! read more

This location is clean. The wait is never long. Employees are nice and professional. The quality of cut is standard. I've had my 5 year old sons hair cut her 5+ times and never had any issues. And his hair is cut by a new person nearly every time. The prices are very affordable. They have tons of DumDums for the kids and a few toys and books for entertainment. If you're looking for a quick cut and aren't too picky- Great Clips is a good option. (I would not get my hair cut here but that's because I am psycho about who touches my hair) read more

Was skeptical going to a great clips (bad reputation for me) so I gave it a try. Nothing great about a bad haircut. The hair manager did not pay attention to what i asked. Gave me a bad cut. First and now very last time going to this franchise. Price is high as well. read more

Awesome job Calla and Regan for cutting mine and my sons hair today. You two are awesome. I will for sure come back read more

My two teenagers walked in with pictures of what kind of hair cuts they wanted, both of them wanted partially shaved heads. Gianna was able to match what they wanted, and as my daughter said, "exactly what she envisioned". Plus, my other kid is non-binary and they didn't blink an eye when we requested to update their name in their system! read more

If you don't give a damn about your haircut , this is the place to go! Before the recent big change in staff, I had one person I trusted with my cuts (Reagan). Over the past months when I go in no one is the same. Must be enormous turnover and not one that has cut my hair has any skills or what appears to be experience in men's haircuts. Additionally , no one seems to know how to sharpen their clippers. My neck hurts for days afterwards. I will not be returning. But. If you don't give a damn, neither do they! read more

My daughter & I went in for haircuts-- I have short hair & my daughter likes her's long. We each had our own stylist. I was completely satisfied with my haircut-- I wear a punked out pixie. My daughter's haircut was also very good--not just a straight cut along the bottom but layered so that if your hair frizzes when it gets humid-- you don't wind up looking like pyramid head. I also like that the stylist asks how much you want cut off, etc. even though it's in the computer as somethings I like to change things up a bit. They were still giving a discount for their recent opening-- not $5.99 but $7.99. read more

this is the first time I have ever given a 1 star review. I usually go out of my way to give a 2 star ratting and mention one positive thing. I can not do that in this case. I have been to this location several times as it is near my house and they do a decent cut for a fair price. This last time I went was the worst experience I have ever had at a retail or service establishment. I have never felt so disrespected or demeaned by an individual as this lady maybe me feel. If there is a hand book on deescalate a situation she did the exact opposite of everything she should have done. She yelled at me, she got in my face, she interrupted me at least 9 times and to top it off she snapped her figures at me in order to get my attention, like you would with a dog! This lady made no attempt to listen to my side or or do anything other than justify her position. I told them that if I left with this unresolved I would NEVER visit this location or company for the rest of my life. I left and till the day I die I will never visit another great clips. If you choose to go here I wish you better luck than I had. read more

Mel here was absolutely amazing! I came in for a quick haircut and this was the nearest spot and I'm so glad I did! She was able to see me quickly and did my haircut just the way I wanted super clean and fast. she was also a real delight to talk to and made me feel comfortable in her chair considering it was my first time. Totally gonna try to make her my regular hairdresser because she made it such a fun experience and I love my haircut :) read more

This great clips need to get better stylist. They are rude and can not cut hair. I have had four different hair stylist and everyone can not cut hair. I leave with my hair all uneven. Maybe if they would stop talking with the other stylist maybe they would learn to cut hair. Today stylist scissors were so dull it wouldn't even cut my hair. Headed over to supercuts so they can fix my hair it looks terrible. Never coming back to this place unless they clean house. read more

This African American lady cut my ear in the first 10 minutes and all she did was put a bandage on it. She cannot cut hair at all. She use only only one hand with the razor and made my head hurts terribly. Great clips need to get better stylists. read more

What a joke! During COVID you think your store would have a proper check in system. Checked in over an hour prior, drove to the location, and they have no record of my check in despite me receiving all confirmation text messages. Offered no solution for me and both employees were very rude. Do NOT come here. read more

Just got my hair fixed somewhere else. The woman at great clips didn't know how to cut my hair.
