A Hairy Situation


It's 5 o'clock on a Wednesday, you've just left work and you're headed home when you suddenly remember that special event, or dinner, or big date, you've been looking forward to--but completely too busy to plan for. Peaking in the rear view mirror you notice you look more like Bozo the clown than a stylish adult with important places to be. Luckily between your work and home is a Great Clips, the one place you can go, without an appointment, and still get an affordable, quality haircut.

Great Clips founders realized in 1982 that haircuts were done in one f three places: at a full-service salon, a mom-and-pop barber shop, or at home. What the market was really missing was a quality salon, conveniently located, in a no-appointment setting. They also realized the key to success was in the stylist training program--which meant that no matter what salon a Great Clips customer visited they could count on the same amazing service, exceptional hair-care, and great value.

Since 1982 the plan for success has come to fruition with the realization of the Great Clips Academy and Great Clips University, training the 30,000 stylists employed by the 2,800 Great Clips Salons in North America. Now, customers across America can count on having a Great Clips in their area and that they will be open--7 days a week, usually as late as 9 in the evening--and that one of the experienced stylists will be happy to help them.

Great Clips is also the most price-reliable salon for customers. Whether man, woman or child--if you need a full cut, quick trim or just your bangs fixed--Great Clips is extremely affordable with cut costs normally between $9-$12. Better yet, there are many Great Clips coupons available from ShopAtHome.com, offers vary on a regular basis. Keep an eye out for great deals on already amazingly priced hair services.

Full-service salons can require their regular customers to make reservations weeks in advance, the costs of a simple cut can often be upward of a $100 and if there is a need to rebook, customers will often be charged a cancellation fee. Sadly, there are few local barbershops left--the days of getting a trim done weekly fro a barber you have known your whole life are long since passed. Today, customers rely on Great Clips for true convenience and consistency.
