About this app

WHAT IS ONLINE CHECK-IN?

-Online Check-In: You save time by checking in to the salon ahead of time - saving your place in line.
-ReadyNext®: Get text alerts to notify you when your estimated wait time reaches 15 minutes as your cue to head to the salon.
-Save your favorite hair salon so it’s even quicker next time you check in!

HOW TO USE:

-Pick a hair salon near you
-Tap the Check In button
-Enter your name and phone number
-Tap Check In again to be added to the wait list – no login, email, or profile required.
-Let the salon know when you arrive.

After you check in, you can watch your estimated wait time countdown and arrive at the salon when it's nearly your turn to get your service.

ESTIMATED WAIT TIME
Estimated wait times assume you are getting the next available stylist. You can request a stylist upon arrival at the salon but your wait may be longer. For safety and privacy reasons, we do not publish stylist schedules.

WHEN IS ONLINE CHECK-IN AVAILABLE?
Customers can check in online during the hours the salon is open. Online Check-In will not be available during the first five minutes a salon is scheduled to be open. This gives customers who are physically in the salon when it opens a chance to be checked in and have their names added to the waitlist. We accept online check-in up until 30 minutes before closing time. You can still get a haircut at closing time, you just can't check in on the app.

CAN I USE ONLINE CHECK-IN FOR MORE THAN A HAIRCUT?
Yes, you can use Online Check-In for all services except perms and formal updos. Please note that not all salons offer perms. And, most salons require an appointment for these services, so please call the salon to inquire.

WHAT DO I DO IF I DON’T HAVE A MOBILE DEVICE?
You can check in from any device that has internet (a smartphone, tablet, computer, etc.). Go to greatclips.com, click on Find a Salon or Check In. Enter your postal code or address and you'll be using Online Check-In in no time! If you don't have an Internet connection, you can always walk right in to any salon and add your name to the list.

WHEN SHOULD I ARRIVE AT THE SALON?
After you've checked in online, you will see what place you are in on the waitlist. You'll want to arrive to the salon before you are next in line. If you'd like to receive a text message when your estimated wait time reaches 15 minutes, you can sign up for ReadyNext® text alerts. Once you arrive at the salon, let the stylists know you're there, and they will confirm your information and finish your check in.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I ARRIVE LATE?
We understand: Things happen! Don't worry if you lose your keys, spill something, or get stuck in traffic. We'll keep your name on the list for a short period of time.

HOW DO I CANCEL MY CHECK IN?
Once you are checked in, the salon will appear on the home screen. Cancel at any time by tapping Cancel check-in.

Used app to check in but it said they were so busy they were only taking walk-ins. I drove across town and found that it was closed. The sign on the door gave the date and hour they would close (Sept 27 2:00PM) so it was obviously a pre-planned closure. What's the point of an app to check if it doesn't even tell l you they are closed?!

The Great Clips app is great. It makes checking in very easy. What's important to note is that their estimated wait time actually reflects in real time, even taking into account walk-in check ins. Unlike the other guys that aren't so "Super", the "Super" app can say wait is 5 minutes, till you go and visit their store, you could be waiting an entire hour. Not with Great Clips, because Great Clips is an absolute winner!

Not always the best at accurately estimating wait time when you check in ahead. There's been several times when I went through the app's process, said it was 0-5 minutes wait, and it's a lot longer. It needs to have a better algorithm to catch real-time data, such as stylists present, average work time, number of customers currently being serviced, etc.

We appreciate your feedback, Joseph. The estimated wait time is based on the current conditions in the salon. As customers check-in and are served, and as the team members change shifts, the estimated wait time adjusts accordingly.

What's new

This update is sweeping up some bugs so you get that fresh haircut feeling in just a few taps.
