Preparation and aftercare

Before your appointment

  • Explain any previous difficulties with a haircut so the stylist can plan a calmer visit.
  • Bring a reference picture and confirm whether a wash is part of the selected appointment.

After your appointment

  • Use a gentle detangling routine and avoid hairstyles that pull tightly on the scalp.
  • Check comfort around the ears and neck; contact the salon if the shape needs clarification.

FAQs

Can my toddler sit on my lap during the haircut?

Yes, absolutely! For babies and younger toddlers, sitting on a parent or guardian's lap is often the most comforting option and makes the experience completely stress-free.

What if my child won't sit still or gets upset?

Our stylists are extremely patient and experienced with young children. We work around wiggles, take short breaks when needed, and use toys, videos, or snacks to keep your little one relaxed.

Do you offer anything special for a baby's first haircut?

Yes! If it's your child's very first haircut, let us know—we will carefully save a lock of hair for you to keep in a sweet commemorative keepsake envelope.

How long does a kids cut for ages 0–5 take?

Appointments are kept short and efficient, typically taking 20 to 30 minutes from arrival to final clean-up to suit short attention spans.

Should I wash my child's hair before coming to the salon?

It is helpful if your child's hair is clean and tangle-free upon arrival. We lightly spray the hair with water at the chair rather than doing a full basin wash, which can be overwhelming for toddlers.
