The worst great clips location I've been to. My hair stylist Yvette cut my hair in a fashion I've never seen before and gave me layers that I specifically asked to avoid. I had to remind her to check my face frame to make sure it was even. The yelp reviews from this location don't lie, go elsewhere! read more

They just straight up don't listen. I've gotten decent cuts from here before, I explain exactly what I want. Never seen this stylist before so I do the same thing I always do and walk through how and what I want, make corrections when it's not something I want. This stylist proceeds to push my fade up to a high and tight (not what told her to do) on top of that cut me several times leaving my skin irritated nor it being a skin fade. Not a fun experience to say the least. read more

This is the absolutely worse service I have ever experienced from any establishment. Picked my son up from school and went straight there. Checked in at 3:37, the screen said 52 min wait. Several people came after us and were put in front of us. After an hour, my son was starving so I ran across the parking lot to grab him a quick bite. When I returned the clock said 42 mins left, even though we had already waited an hour for a 52 min wait time. I asked the girl how long and she said she would be taking him soon. Then a family of 5 who got their haircuts wanted a discount for all their haircuts so they tried to problem solve that. That was another 20 mins. About 30 mins later the girl that said she would be taking us shortly, I guess decided she needed a break (don't know her name, young, pretty black girl). Around 5:20 and after waiting almost 2 hours, I told the lady my son has a football game and we had to go. She said she could take him now. She started his haircut and I had to tell her we couldn't finish because he would be late for his game. She said I could come back tomorrow. I left incredibly frustrated to say the least after paying $27 ($22 and $5 too). And my son was late for his game. Saturday returned at 6:08. Same lady (Lily) that started cutting it yesterday said she was waiting for us because I checked in online. I could barely understand her or explain exactly what my son wanted because her English is so broken. I told her numerous times he wanted a low taper fade. I showed her a pic showing exactly what he wanted. My 10 year old was also trying to explain what he wanted and she begin to become angry with him because she said she had to pick up her kid, although it was only 6:33 and she said she works until 7. She then begin being very rough with the clippers on the back on my son's head. I could see my son grimacing and I looked at her sternly, but she continued to do it incredibly fast with pressure. My son was not satisfied with his hair but I just told him it looks okay and let's go. When we got to car he said "it looks terrible, I'm just going to wear my hat everyday" and he complained the back of his head hurt. Also he left his hat there so we went back at 7:16 and Lily was still there after she had rushed his haircut because she had to leave at 7. I should have asked for a full refund because this is unacceptable. I wouldn't go back there if they paid me to. Hopefully the owner gets this squared away, I've read numerous other terrible reviews about this Great Clips location. read more

let me just say that I've been to great clips a few times never really got that great of a haircut but this is the absolute worst. It looks nothing like I was supposed to get. She was supposed to take a half an inch off the bottom and it looks like she took 2 inches off. I don't think I've ever gotten a worse haircut and I know one thing I'll never come back to great clips. read more

Hey Guys, I don't appreciate you wasting my time and your flawed system. Let me elaborate. i went to your online check in system and was advised about a 40 minute wait. I show up and I am 2nd in line. One hair stylist. i request a certain individual and advise he will be back in about 15 minutes or so. Comes after about 25 minutes. No issue. The problem is that #1 slot is ready to be taken and isn't there. In fact that individual doesnt show up until 20 minutes after I arrive and the walk in comes in 10 minutes before and I let him go before me since I am waiting. I actually let 2 people leap frog me. So this #1 person keeps their slot even though 2 people have either been serviced or myself who is waiting gets to be taken care of. So if I understand correctly, I could check in at10 am and go to the front of the line at 4 pm? Clearly lady or system should update when #1 wasnt at location or advised employee who had arrived at 1.20. I expect an apology. I chose not to make a scene. read more

Been to this location twice and I have been happy with my experience both times. Their check-in process is very simple and very useful if you use their app. The first Time Mark cut my hair and he did exactly what I wanted. The second time Amica(I think that was her name) did a great job on my hair too. We got to talking about hair color and she gave some amazing suggestions. This is now my go-to salon. Wonderful work and great on the wallet. read more

I went to Great Clips yesterday for a haircut. I was very worried because this was my first time and I have a very short hair (boy cut) which has to be cut properly otherwise mistakes are easily noticeable. Randy gave me a hair cut and he did it so carefully that I have no complains. Randy is at Scripps Ranch location on Monday and Tuesday. Try him. he is awesome. read more

DO NOT GO HERE! I asked for layers and whicspy curtain bangs and showed reference pictures and I walked out with uneven and short bangs that got shorter on the sides creating the most unflattering shape. I wish I had read the reviews before going here and ruining my hair. The hair stylist seemed rushed and did not do a good job. Probably the worst haircut I've ever gotten. read more

OKAY, FIRST THINGS FIRST, I just had my haircut by this blond woman from Texas (her name's Angela) and she was sincerely one of the best barbers I've met. I have a really tough time with getting my hair cut because it's kinda nappy, but she took the time to give me the most useful and blunt advice for managing my hair I have ever been given in my life. I'm just making this review right now because earlier I had a really bad experience at this same location, but she honest to god redeemed it in my eyes. read more

Lily cuts a crisp fade. Very professional and takes her time to ensure the client is satisfied. If you've got an extra $4, get the shampoo. She really knows how to massage scalp and put you in a relaxing mood. read more

Do not reccomend. Went here the first time they did good but I went in the second time to give them another shot. Im only going here since my barber is super booked. Teresa cut my har and she was being too rough. I showed her exactly how I wanted it on my phone and how could she possibly mess up... but look right side good. Left side she chopped all my hair. Guess I have to wear a hat read more

My wife and I took our daughter who is on the spectrum to get her first haircut today. We were taken care of by an amazing stylist named Samantha. She worked extremely well with our daughter and made her feel very comfortable throughout the whole process. I highly recommend Great Clips Scripps Ranch for anyone, excellent customer service! read more

I needed a haircut, still do. Haven't had a haircut since March...had to stop at the Postal Annex so I thought I'd get my haircut at The Great Clips. Walked inside and the lady was nice enough to ask what I wanted, I explained just a haircut...she took my name and phone number, said it would be about a 15 minute wait, would that be ok. I said yes..she told me to wait outside, (90 degrees outside today) and someone would call me or come out to get me. I waited 20 minutes and left....I had waited long enough outside in the heat...yes there was some shade but no seats in the shade. The only seats available were in direct sunlight. Don't know if anyone came out to get me, but I do know I never received a call. read more

Only go to Darcy or Angela when getting a haircut. Especially Darcy. I've been going here the last few years ever and it seems to me that those two are the only ones who know what to do. The new hairstylists aren't cutting it. Went in a few weeks ago and got the new hairstylist instead of Darcy. She probably did the worst job ever. I didn't like it at all. I got home and noticed that she didn't shave the excess hair on the back of my head and didnt shave one of my sideburns! Luckily for her I didnt remember her name and don't live close enough to drive all the way back to complain. read more

My husband and I both came today for cuts. He is a marine so he got a medium skin fade while I had my A-line bob trimmed. I have had bad experiences with getting my hair cut in San Diego and I was so glad to walk out of a hair salon for once with a smile on my face. Only wish they offered hair coloring too! Samantha did a fantastic job on his fade, and Houng fixed my hair up wonderfully read more

Updated review: I'm pleased to say Walter was great to talk to as he fixed up my hair from a previous cut that was a bit short and not at all how I envisioned it. It's still pretty short, but now it's a lot easier to work with. Thanks for turning things around, Walter! read more

Briana cut my hair yesterday at about 2:00 pm. There was nobody else waiting at that time. She is cute, she is experienced and she has excellent personality(also her first day at this location.) Have been getting my hair cut here for about 3 years, simply out of convenience, have never had a particularly bad cut(I get buzzed with a #2 guard), but there is not a lot of art to that. Briana had excellent conversation skills, and she got my hair cut with a little extra flair(great job on the sideburns) and had me finished professionally with a minimal amount of fuss. If she doesn't continue working at this location I'm going to be extremely bummed out. She made the experience of getting my hair cut actually fun. read more

Came here looking for a last minute haircut (Short, Curly hair) before school starts. We were greeted promptly and serviced after waiting less than 5 minutes. My daughter was nervous about getting a cut by a man but her nerves were quickly calmed after chatting with Mark before her cut. He understood exactly what she was looking for and executed it to the T. She loved her wash and the delicate care of her cut. We will definitely be back for a cut with Mark. Thank you. read more

So close to my work and each time I walk in I have little to no wait and get a great haircut and all the people are very nice

Meh. Could be better. Desperate for my son to get a haircut pronto before he leaves for a trip.

My husband recently had his hair done at great clips. The whole process did not start out very well I must say. The staff seemed a little rude but understandably stressed possibly due to the number of people waiting - Covid- cutting hair in the parking spaces and I'm sure other factors as well. The haircut went well and the stylist was relatively responsive to my husband. Where they were lacking in charm, points were gained on the reasonable quality of the cut. read more

I always use this Great Clips-and last night was wonderful because SAMANTHA was working and cheerfully trimmed two inches off my hair in no time flat!!! Thank you Scripps Ranch Great Clips! You're the best! read more

Always do a great job. I have a balding head and they make me look less bald by interpreting my buzz cut desire into a real haircut. Haven't found a place that does it like everyone at this Great Clips does, and as friendly as they do. Awesome job and I really appreciate the work they do!! read more

Cymbre did an amazing job! She asked how i wanted my hair cut at the beginning. She made small talk that made me comfortable. While chatting, she would double check how I wanted the length, the bangs, framing my face, the layering again. I love her attention to detail in making sure she got what I wanted in my haircut. Will definitely be back! read more

I took my 2 year old in was a screaming hyena and not a fan of haircuts. Samantha blew me away with her care, patience and compassion she showed him as well as me. She took the time to walk him around the entire place just so he would feel comfortable. She had so many tricks up her sleeve and was a Jedi with children. Samantha if you are reading this thank you from the bottom of my heart. Great tattoos as well read more

I went there for walk in to get a haircut and asked how long the wait list, the old asian lady was so rude to me. She said it's over an hour wait then said "can't you see that there are other people before you!?" I felt so humiliated because I just wanted to ask how long the wait list is and her response was so rude and so loud everyone there could hear it. Never going there again. read more

So my haircut was good. My review does not reflect the quality of haircut. The review reflects my overall annoyance at the experience. Let me preface this review by saying, I ONLY use professional hair products with the exception of hairspray. But everything else is professional products only purchased in salons (as opposed to Target, etc). My stylist, whom I'm not naming because I don't think this is a reflection of her so much as management, harassed me to buy product. Not just one time or one product. Three different times, three different products despite me firmly telling her I was not interested. First she advised I buy a split end spray. I told her I wasn't interested and that I won't use it, I don't need any products right now. All of which is the truth. I've been suckered into buying products over the years that go unused. I also told her my problem isn't split ends per se, but the fact I go far too long between trims. She asked what type of shampoo/conditioner i used. After telling her, she was satisfied for only a minute. Then she tried to persuade me to purchase a leave in conditioner. I literally have an entire bottle at home that I used twice in 6 months. As I said, I've learned I tend not to use products I don't think I need. Then she put in a mousse intended to make my hair feel fuller. She put it in and blow dried by hair so it was puffed out, making it look like a lions mane. "Do you see how full your hair looks? Does it feel fuller?" At this point I was mad. 1) because drop it. I'm not buying anything from you and 2) maybe but I would never ever ever do my hair like that (the way she used the blow dryer would make anyone's hair "look" more voluminous). I have no problem buying products. But, only when I need and/or want them. Had she simply used a product that made my hair look nice (created the idea in my mind that I needed it) I would have gladly spent $15-30 on product. However, it's blatantly obvious her only concern was selling product - any product would do. Didnt matter if I wanted it, needed it, would use it. This brings me to management. Having working part time as a receptionist in a similar type salon, I am familiar with the metrics used to rank stylists. I know they have goals for $/hr productivity, how much $ in product is sold per week, etc. My experience in this salon said to me, they only care about my money and if I'm not spending it on product I'm not spending enough. I will never set foot in there again. I live less than a mile away and will spend twice as much elsewhere to avoid being harassed to buy more product. read more

The worst place you can ever go for a haircut. I asked for a low fade and they gave me a high and tight. Not to mention that it was uneven and not faded the way it should be. This place is a joke. She has no skills , and should not be opening a business like this. read more

Absolutely horrendous, I walked in for a haircut and I walked out looking like an egg.

I needed a quick trim. I had never been to a Great Cllips. I was greeted with a big smile and was in the chair within 5 minutes. The lady that cut my hair was thorough and listened to my every request. She even provided me with useful tips for when I wash at home. I normally go to a professional salon, but would use Great Clips again for a trim. The decor could use some updating; but otherwise I would recommend this place! Enjoy! read more

Expensive! I am a Senior man, mostly bald, and I spent less than 5 minutes in the chair and they charged me $18! I told then I go to the Great Clips in Escondido and it's only $13. Why is it so expensive here? Even though I work nearby I won't be going back. read more

This review is more for the Angela, she butchered my daughters hair!! My daughter told her she wanted 2 inches off and even showed her a picture. She cut over 6 inches off then compleatly destroyed my daughters bangs. The whole time she did this she had a stupid smile on her face. Now, Samantha the Manager did do her best to fix my daughters hair. If it wasn't for Samantha, this review would be much worse. I did get my money back, but not the tip. In fact, if you do go to great clips DO NOT HAVE ANGELA CUT YOUR HAIR!! She is a blonde over weight girl with a stupid smile. She does not know how to cut hair. please save your hair go to another place, or at least DO NOT have Angela do it. Again, she is the worst. read more

My normal hair guy was having surgery, so I told him I was going to cheat on him. So Great Clips it is because I could walk in and not waste a lot of time. But you are always concerned with someone new cutting your hair and I suck at communicating hair things... my instruction was mainly "umm...make it shorter." But the stylist did a great job. Quick. Cheap. read more

I've been here twice now and both times got major haircuts from long (10+ inches) to pixie. Both times I had great experiences and was very happy with the results. Samantha cut my hair this last time I went, and she was very patient taking her time on the cut and humoring my special requests. She checked in at various steps to ensure that I was on board with what she was doing, and also offered helpful suggestions from length of the bangs to styling products. Would go back! read more
