What you get at a First Choice Haircutters visit

Family visits in markets without a Supercuts or Great Clips nearby; prices and service mix sit between Cost Cutters and Supercuts. The standard service menu includes:

  • Adult haircut
  • Kids' haircut
  • Senior cut
  • Color
  • Highlights
  • Beard trim
  • Treatment

Wait times and online check-in

Online check-in available at most U.S. stores via firstchoice.com. The fastest universal tactic is to walk in within fifteen minutes of opening on a weekday — most stores open at 9 AM and the first wave doesn't arrive until 9:30, so you'll usually walk straight into a chair.

Loyalty & rewards

Birthday coupons and email-list specials.

First-time visitor tip

Ask whether your stylist is hourly or commission — commission stylists are usually faster and tend to take more pride in finishing touches.
