Hey Guys! Happy September!
Recently, we took J to get his haircut at Great Clips in East Meadow for his FIRST back-to-school haircut. While we were waiting for our turn there were quite a few people who came in and out for their own haircuts, which for me means that they must be doing a wonderful job! Seeing a loyal clientele is HUGE for me and put me at ease, gotta love those mom nerves!
CHECK-IN
To beat the wait we loved that Great Clips offers the free Online Check-in app which allowed us to add our name to the list before we arrived and find out the estimated wait, enabling us to maximize our time. I mean, I am usually literally running around all day long, so this was a great way to be able to plan accordingly!
HAIRCUT
J got his hair trimmed from a medium curly length to a shorter length. I hated to see his curls disappear but they were unruly, to be honest. His hairstylist, Kat, was AMAZING with him. She spoke to him often, reassured him he was doing great and complimented him on sitting still for the most part. Not only did she work with him patiently when he started having a bit of a breakdown but she also helped me feel comfortable. Kat continually asked for my input and her PATIENCE with him was BEYOND what I expected.
FINAL THOUGHTS
Overall, I was pleasantly satisfied with J’s haircut. There is no doubt in my mind that I will be taking him back to Great Clips often for his haircuts. The friendliness and overall demeanor of the staff went beyond the norm. I would highly recommend visiting Great Clips for kids’ haircuts as parents are thinking about back to school season and school pictures. Not only did J get a haircut but I got one right after him! I am extremely picky about who cuts my hair but Kat did an amazing job. I love that Great Clips exudes such a family-friendly environment. Not only does Great Clips offer amazing and convenient service, but they are also SUPER affordable!

Nice! I think we have a Great Clips nearby. I’ll take my kids the next time they need cuts.
My nephew just had his haircut a few days ago. And I really have a lot of respect for hairstylists who can work with young children. Because it’s just next to impossible!
Happy kids, happy mom! There is nothing like a good, experienced, patien hair cutter when it¡s about the kiddos!
Great clips does a good job for the military too. I always appreciate how cheap and convenient they are when we need to get haircuts.

Someone looks ready to come back to school! I love this haircut! He is a handsome little man! I will check them out for sure. 🙂
We like Great Clips for our haircuts. At least the one where we live. They typically have good deals.
Being able to check in before getting to the salon is a huge plus. I had my hair cut there and found a great stylist that I loved and kept going back to visit!
I’ll try to check out if there are any Great Clips branch near us. I like the fact that they have the check in service which makes things easier and less hassle.

A fresh haircut is necessary for first day back to school! And this is great cuz it doesn’t break the bank and looks like it was a quick and fun experience!
