Great Clips has been the go-to destination for no-fuss, no-appointment haircuts since opening its first location in Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1982. Today, with more than 4,400 franchise locations spanning every US state and Canadian province, it’s the most accessible professional haircut you can get — walk in, sit down, and you’re done in under 20 minutes.
The brand runs on a franchise model, meaning each salon is independently owned. This is why coupons are location-specific — each owner sets their own promotions. It also means pricing, hours, and deals vary by location, which is exactly why pages like this exist: to consolidate every active offer in one place so you can find the best deal near you.

⚙️ How It Works
The Great Clips Coupon System Explained
🏪
Franchise-Issued Deals
Every coupon is released by the individual salon owner, not Great Clips HQ. That’s why each deal is tied to specific locations — one owner in Omaha can run a $6.99 promo while another in Phoenix runs $9.99 on the same day.
🔗
Live Barcodes at offers.greatclips.com
Each coupon URL leads to a page with the salon address, discount price, expiry, and a session-based barcode the cashier scans. If you leave the page idle too long, the barcode refreshes — just reload to get a fresh one. Never screenshot the barcode.
💳
Two Coupon Types
Flat price ($6.99, $8.99…) — you pay exactly that, regardless of the regular price. Best at expensive locations. Dollar off ($5 OFF) — reduces the regular price by a fixed amount. Best where the regular price is $18 or higher.
⏰
Expiry & Restrictions
Deals last anywhere from 3 days to 8 weeks. One coupon per customer per visit. Not combinable with senior discount. US coupons don’t work at Canadian locations. Applies to haircuts only — not shampoos or specialty services.
⚠️If the offer page shows “This offer has expired”, the owner pulled the deal early. Return to this page, find the next-lowest available tier for your area, and try again. Salon phone: look up on greatclips.com/find-a-salon or call 1-800-473-2825.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
What is the lowest price I can get a Great Clips haircut with a coupon? ▼
The lowest regularly available flat price is $5.99, though these are extremely rare and location-specific. More commonly available are $6.99 and $7.99 deals which appear for dozens of locations regularly. The “$5 OFF” coupon reduces the regular price by $5 — at an $18 salon that’s $13. For the absolute lowest price, check this page daily during Back-to-School season in late July and August.
Can I use a Great Clips coupon at any location? ▼
No — every coupon is location-specific. Each coupon links to a specific salon address or regional group of salons. When you click “Print Coupon,” the offer page shows exactly which salons accept it. Using it at an unlisted location will result in the discount being declined. Always verify the accepting location before you travel.
Why is my coupon not working or showing as expired? ▼
Three common reasons: (1) Expired date — the deal ended. Return here for a fresh coupon. (2) Wrong location — the salon you visited is not listed on that offer page. (3) Session timeout — if you left the offer page open too long, the barcode expired. Simply reload the offer page to get a fresh barcode. Call 1-800-473-2825 if issues persist.
How often are new coupons released? ▼
New coupons are released on a rolling, location-by-location basis — sometimes multiple times per day. There is no fixed corporate schedule since each franchise owner decides independently. Checking this page daily gives you the best chance of finding a coupon for your area before it expires or is claimed.
Can I combine a coupon with the senior discount? ▼
Most coupons state “not valid with any other offer,” which technically includes the senior discount. Policies vary by location since each salon is independently owned. The safest approach: use the lowest available coupon tier from this page, which is often already cheaper than the senior discount price. Some locations may apply whichever discount is greater — worth asking your stylist.
Do coupons apply to children’s and seniors’ haircuts? ▼
Yes, in most cases. Flat-price coupons typically apply to any haircut — adult, child, or senior. However, if the regular price for a children’s or senior’s cut is already lower than the coupon price, no additional discount applies. Always show the coupon at checkout and the stylist will apply whichever price is lower.
Are Great Clips coupons valid in Canada? ▼
Yes — some coupons on this page are specifically for Canadian locations in BC, Alberta, and Ontario. These are listed with Canadian city names and prices are shown in CAD. US coupons do not work at Canadian salons and vice versa. Scroll through the tables and look for Canadian city names to find deals in Canada.
What is the Great Clips Online Check-In and how does it help? ▼
Online Check-In lets you remotely join the wait list at your local Great Clips before leaving home, via the free app (iOS & Android) or at greatclips.com. It shows real-time wait times at nearby salons and sends a text when you’re next in line. Combined with a coupon, you arrive just in time, pay the discounted price, and are done in under 20 minutes total — no waiting room time wasted.
How much does Great Clips normally cost without a coupon? ▼
Standard adult haircut prices range from $14 to $22 in 2026 depending on region. Urban and coastal markets are on the higher end; Midwest and smaller towns are lower. Children’s cuts are generally $2–$4 cheaper. Senior prices (65+) are typically $2 off the adult rate. With the best coupons on this page, you can reduce those prices by 50–70%.
Can I use a coupon for a shampoo or specialty service? ▼
Coupons on this page apply to standard haircuts only. Shampoos, conditioning treatments, perms, and coloring are charged at regular rates and are not covered by the coupon. If you add a shampoo to your haircut, the coupon applies to the cut portion only and the add-on is priced separately at the regular rate.
