Haircut for Kids

Haircut for Kids, Here’s What You Should Know

A haircut for kids can be stressful for the child, but Barba Men’s Grooming Boutique offers some helpful tips for your next barber visit.

Tips Regarding Kids’ Haircuts

We have all seen the video clips of children screaming while sitting in the barber seat. A haircut can be scary for the child, and nerve-wracking for the parent, but here are a few tips that could make the next visit less daunting:

• We spend a load of our parenting time telling children not to play with scissors and other sharp objects, so the image of a stranger approaching with what we have deemed an absolute no in the house may make children anxious. This anxiety can be avoided by firstly accepting that your child is anxious; getting angry is only going to make things worse. Accept these feelings and work with them. To possibly prevent this, take your child to the barber before the appointment and have them get acquainted with the sights and sounds.
• Go to a barber who knows how to work with children and has the experience. Research businesses that specifically offer children’s haircuts.
• Take your child a new toy that can distract them from what the barber is doing. Music can also help to block out the noises of the salon, which can be noisy and strange for kids.
