Great Together

We couldn't call ourselves GREAT without the schools that develop great cosmetologists or barbers and grow the industry. The Great Clips brand is proud to partner with schools to shape and change lives in the cosmetology industry. Local Great Clips salon owners connect with schools to offer high-quality technical and career-oriented presentations, which include skill-building, best-practice videos, guides and live demos.

The Great Scholarship Program

Do you know a student who is ready to be great? At Great Clips, we encourage you to show the world what you’re all about. To make it easier, Great Clips, Inc. provides over $100,000 in scholarships to cosmetology and barbering students each year! Eligible students can apply for a scholarship valued up to $5,000. Open all year to apply. Stay updated by signing up for our Stylisthood e-newsletter!
