Great Clips reviews

they do not care about their stylist

You will never work harder and longer hours. Not for the weak! You will be on your feet for hours with few breaks, and while the tips are good and most clients are great, you will leave each day with aching feet, hair splinters, and sore muscles only to return the next day and do it all over. You do not get much time off and you are expected to work all shifts, weekdays and weekends, and especially holiday peak seasons. They are open 7 days a week, 12 hours a day on weekdays and 7-10 hours a day on weekends. Kiss your family goodbye, you will not be there for them. Emphasis is put on doing fast haircuts (15 minutes or less), and selling products. This is hard because haircut clients are not washed or styled and customers are at Great Clips for a value priced haircut; they typically will not spend money on more expensive quality professional products. Great Clips gets you caught up in the competition of being fast and doing cookie cutter haircuts, making you forget about the skill and unique artistry of being a hairdresser, which is what most of us were attracted to and went to beauty school for in the first place. This in-and-out salon is for people who don't care about their haircut, their style, or the experience of having their hair done; they are just crossing off an errand on their to-do list.
