We have yet to confirm an end date. However, in the past, the offer has ended in mid-December. Have you ever considered paying for haircuts in advance? It’s a money-wise move, given it will trim your grooming budget in the long run. Every year, Great Clips offers a special discount card for just a few weeks. It’s one of the few opportunities to save money at the salon, especially because they no longer offer as many coupons as they once did a few years ago.

Starting November 12, Great Clips is offering its once-a-year Great Card — get an adult haircut for $13.99. (If you’re reading this outside of Colorado, the price varies by market.)
Load as many discounted haircuts on the card as you want… (1 for $13.99, 2 for $27.98, 3 for $41.97, etc.) The regular price for an adult haircut is $18 at most locations, so it’s a savings of $4 per haircut.
The pre-paid card never expires. You cannot reload the card with more discounted haircuts, once the sale is over for the year.
The cards cannot be combined with any other offer or coupon. However, it can be redeemed at any participating location in the U.S. and is transferable — even in the same visit, assuming you have the appropriate number of haircuts loaded on the card.
Plus, you cannot tip from the card, so be ready with a few dollars in your pocket to thank your stylist.
The discount card is only available at participating salons for a limited time. (The sale usually ends in mid-December.) Because all Great Clips locations are independently-owned, the discount card may not be available at all locations. Please check first. (Note: The offer is not available online.)
The budget-conscious might consider paying for a year’s worth of haircuts now. It’s a small investment upfront, but the “shavings” definitely add up!
My husband gets these each year but our local Great Clips in Parker said they are only allowed to sell 25 cards this year and you can only load 3 haircuts on it. They will not start selling them until 19 November. Not sure about other locations.
Michele – Thank you for the insight. As with all promotions involving independently-owned businesses, the “fine print” may vary by location. -BKC
I wanted to add that at the Golden Great Clips they are selling the cards for $14.99. At a Highlands Ranch location they are selling the cards for $16.99 and only three haircuts per card per customer. It just might save someone a few phone calls.
I was told by someone employed by Great Clips that 2022 will be the last year year for this special. Bummer. Where I live the maximum number of hair cuts you can buy is 19. I intend to buy the full amount at a bit over $250. I was also told that there will be large across the board price increases.
