    Our usual place was fully booked for the holidays, and we needed a last minute haircut for our 2 y.o before a vacation, which is why we booked here. We had a great experience with another stylist in the past, which is why we decided to return. However, this visit did not meet our expectations. The haircut itself was okay, but the appointment felt rushed and only took about 10 mins. It seemed like the stylist was focused on moving quickly to the next client since she was fully booked for the day. I asked for the bottom to be shorter and lightly lined up to match the V shape of his fohawk, but she declined, saying she only does that for a child's 5th haircut or later. This was his 4th, and we had it done elsewhere without issue. I understand that toddlers do not always sit still and that results may not be perfect, but I wish that had been explained and left up to me as the parent instead of dismissed. At $35 plus a generous tip, I expected more time, care, and communication. Unfortunately, we will not be returning.

    I made an appointment online for my 7-month-old to get her ears pierced. Toni was so patient with my baby. They provide after care and gave a small bath toy too. They have a small selection of earrings to choose from. I got small diamond gold plated ones. Appointments are highly recommended. Thank you!

    They have amazing people that can do great hair cuts for children! We keep coming back as Fiona is amazing and she always gets the cut just like in the pictures we share. Super skilled and very kind and patient. Our kid loves going here!

    Same great team, same location, new name! Our first visit as Great Bear Cut went smoothly. We saw Toni (SO thankful she is still there) and she worked her magic per usual. The decor has changed a little bit, but still felt familiar, and we will continue to come here for our kids' cuts!

    Lookin' fresh!

    This used to be Snip-Its, and nothing has changed except the name and the interior, it's still the same great place with wonderful stylists. Originally we found this place while I was getting donuts one morning at BC's, and I saw a mom and her son going in while I was coming out. I thought, let's give it a shot, can't be worse than the haircuts I've been attempting. And they do an excellent job, we've been getting our son's haircut here since he was three. We let his hair get a bit shaggy because we like the look of the length on him, but they keep the look and just tidy everything all up in such a great way. The stylists always listen and gave us the exact haircut we're looking for. This is now our little guy's regular spot, and sometimes we even get to snag a donut as a reward afterwards.

    Ask the Community - The Great Bear Cut

    I've been a Snip-Its customer for years. Menu on new website has no option for adult appointments. How do you schedule an adult cut?

    Please go ahead and schedule a haircut and we can take care of that in store . Adults cut is $7 in addition to the base price. Thank you for your support and we are so glad you found your way back to us.

    Toni was so kind and I loved that she gave honest input when I asked about what hairstyle would look best for my son.

    If you are looking to get a haircut for your baby/toddler, then look no further! I came to Little…read moreKuts for my soon to be 2 year old's first haircut. It is a cute little salon, and the room if outfitted for kids. I was nervous about how my toddler would sit in a chair for a while without wiggling but she did great with the toys that were provided. For your first haircut, you get to keep some hair (if you would like) and then get a cute certificate. It is perfect if you are scrapbooking or keeping memories for your kids. There is free parking in the back of the building. just go to the gate on thee right hand side (if you are looking at the building). There is a suite number parking space reserved for it.

    We were grateful to be squeezed in on a Friday afternoon for 2 boys' cuts. I showed a picture of…read morethe cut we wanted. It's an old school straight bang cut. Abigail suggested layering to give the back of the head more shape. It didn't work out so well. Her technique made it look uneven, not blended. Then hair was cut too short, so it sticks up a bit on one side. If you know Asian hair you watch out for that. Once it's too short you can't fix that. After I saw how it looked I skipped the layering on boy 2. That worked out better. No layering meant no cutting the hair too short. But, both boys were cut with uneven bangs and I had to check and point out where it needed adjustments. It was pretty obvious. Overall not happy about being charged $35 each for the cut. I haven't lost faith in kids' salons, but I'm still on the search for our regular spot. May be just go back to Super Cuts.

    Very rude and unprofessional salon. I waited 30 minutes…read moresimply to get pricing information. During that time, the stylist says she's busy go talk to assistant. the assistant doesn't know prices, she has to "look them up on her screen" and has to find her login password.. I wait then she.. gets a phone call, but she doesn't not put the phone caller on hold; instead, she prioritizes the call over an in-person guest who had already been waiting. At this point I'm just over it.. this salon has no basic service standards. So I write a short review. But the real issue is the salon manager, Cathy. See screenshot Rather than acknowledging the experience or taking responsibility, her response to my review was defensive, dismissive, and borderline hostile. She reframes the situation and even added a passive-aggressive comment along the lines of "too bad we can't review you." Wow! That last remark says everything about the culture here. Customer feedback should be met with accountability. A manager who responds vengefully instead of constructively tells you everything you need in how guests are valued. If this is how concerns are handled publicly, I would be very cautious about how problems are handled here about your hair!

    I visited this salon for a deva cut and then highlights and a treatment. Even though I paid over…read more$500 for both services combined (which is the most I have EVER paid for my hair), I was happy with the cut and with the color. The stylist was very knowledgeable about curly hair which I attribute to the cost of their service. I don't think I'd return for color again but will definitely return for the deva cuts. It could be helpful to give customers a rough estimate of the booked service so we get the chance to financially plan instead of being told the price once we're in the chair- at that point, I feel most customers could feel obligated to comply.
