We recommend asking your Stylist any questions you have about product. You can also find product information on the product page of our website.

Coupon/Season Ticket/Gift Certificate Questions

I have a coupon for a specific location but want to use it at a different location - can I do that?

It depends on the coupon. There are certain coupons that can be redeemed at any location across the country, but there are others that are issued by individual stores or markets and can only be redeemed at the locations or market named on the coupon.

Season Tickets can only be used at the location where they are purchased. They are not transferable between stores.

Please note: Neck & shoulder treatment is not available in Oregon and Washington.

I want to buy a gift certificate. Do you sell them?

We do not have a national gift certificate program, so gift certificates are only available at select locations. Please use our store locator to inquire directly with the location you are interested in. And please understand - because stores are independently owned and operated, gift certificates may only be redeemable at select locations, so please ask before you purchase.

Online Check In Questions

What is Online Check In?

Online Check In is the Sport Clips web and app-based system that allows Clients to check in for a haircut online and get in line wherever you are to make your drive time your wait time.

Why should I use Online Check In?

Online Check in is all about convenience. You can check wait times, search for the location nearest you, see if your favorite Stylist is working, receive check in reminders, view the wait board live after check in and opt in for special promotions.

How can I use Online Check In?

The Sport Clips Haircuts Check In app is available on both the iOS and Android app stores. You can also access check on the web at sportclips.com/checkin.

How do I check in?

First, you'll want to search for your location and tap the red pin marker of the store you want to visit. Next, you'll hit the red check in button and choose your Stylist. You can choose the first available Stylist or choose a specific Stylist from the list.

Why do I need to create an account?

An account is required so your online check in can be linked to your physical visit when you arrive at the store. This allows the Stylists to mark you as arrived in the system and mark you as "on deck" for your haircut.

When can I check in for a haircut?

Online Check In is available five minutes after the store is open and ends roughly 30 minutes before the store closes. The 30-minute window at closing is an estimate because wait times are based on our Stylist's average service time, so it's important to check the wait time of the store you want to visit and compare it to the store's closing time.

I'm all checked in for my haircut. What do I need to do when I arrive at the store?

Upon arrival, you'll see your name on the waitlist, but make sure you sign in at the self-service kiosk to confirm you have arrived. You can also speak to a Stylist who can assist and confirm your arrival.

How do I cancel my check-in?

After confirming your check in, you'll be taken to a confirmation screen displaying your estimated arrival time. You can cancel from this screen. You can also go back to the main menu of the app or website and navigate to the My Check Ins section where you will find the option to cancel.

I want to bring my kid(s) for a haircut. Do I need to create an additional account?

You can request multiple haircuts via the app or the website, so there is no need to create an account for your children or other minor family members you plan to bring with you. Once you log in, you can add additional names to your check in and will receive estimated wait times for each person. You can also check in one or more guests/family members even if you don't want services performed for yourself.

How do I choose a specific Stylist?

After searching for your location and tapping the store location icon, click to access the Stylist choice field that is currently set to "first available." A menu will appear with the list of available Stylists along with their individual wait times. Stylists who appear greyed out are either not clocked in yet or have temporarily stepped away from the cutting floor.

Can I save my stylist or location?

Favorites can be saved within the app by clicking the heart icon next to a Stylist or location name. This feature is not available on the web option.

Why can't I see my previous check ins?

Currently, the My Check Ins section shows only a current check in. A complete history of past check ins and services performed can be obtained by speaking to a Stylist in store.
