Your child's first cut: what to bring and when to book

Book a morning slot. Children are calmer before lunch, and the shop is quieter.

Bring a snack and something to hold. A toy in their hands keeps them from reaching for the clippers.

Let them sit on your lap for the first few minutes. Once they see the clippers are only noisy, most children move to the chair on their own.

Pick the kids' cut when you book. It gives the barber thirty minutes, so nobody has to rush.
