Just a great place for the kids to get a quick cut. My little girl sally’s hair was getting a little long and greasy and just needed a good washing along with a haircut. So I went on Unilocal and found this place. While the two $ sign’s scared me at first I decided to pucker up the money because well, its my baby girl and I dont mind spending 10+ dollars every now and then on her. So we got in there and I instantly got a good feeling from this place. Sally hopped right up in the chair and they cut away. Usually sally is nervous when it comes to haircuts but they made her feel really comfortable and helped ease the nervousness away. The whole time they were just talking about girl things ya know, and sally was just soaking the attention up. When it was over she was just about as happy as I’ve ever seen her. Great place.

I’m a mom of two girl and this place is a kids paradise and has suited our needs for a while. We came her initially for their«first haircut package» where they took a picture, gave me some of her clippings to save and ended with a toy and lollipop. My girls love their train tables and I love the TV’s at each station. What a perfect way to get your kid to look up by telling them to watch the cartoon! I’ve definitely had to wait on busy Saturday’s but that should be expected. I will say I’m not usually looking for a spa quality haircut when I go here. It’s more for younger kids, and difficult kids that have trouble getting their hair cut. I’ve never had a complaint though, my girls ends always get trimmed as evenly as possible. I would love to try a birthday party here. The packages look awesome!

Its always been pretty hit or miss for me here. My son has gotten some decent hair cuts, but also has gotten some really bad ones… one was so bad I had to take him to my hair dresser to fix it. When she finished, I was so shocked, I really just grabbed him and left. That said, his last hair cut was amazing. I have figured out you have to scissor cut all of his hair, and I think that helped the hair dresser a lot to know that. The setup is great, though. My son actually loves to go. The kids can play trains while they wait, and pick what chair they want to sit in(cop car, firetruck, etc). And they always have movies playing, which helps keep the kids entertained(and still). I just think its hit or miss as to if you will get a good cut or not.

Do NOT take your child here. My son’s hair was butchered. I asked her to cut his bangs and please cut off no length; just shape it up. The bangs are not cut at all; they’re still below his eyes. The right side of his head is shorter than the left. It’s awful. The woman was so, so careless.

Really nice place with some toys for the kids to play with. But always severely understaffed.

I’ve been to this location twice, the 1st time we went to trim my kids hair and it was a bad haircut. Went back the following day so they could fix it and ended up with a super short hair cut that really wasn’t great at all. My little one walked in with long hair and left with super short hair. Wasn’t happy at all with the two girls who cut his hair. They were different ladies. There was no comment from them about us having to drive out there the 2nd time at all. The place is beautiful and my kid loves the train table but that’s all. Been to many kid hair places and this is not one I’ll go back to. The 1st lady wasn’t really what you’d call«good with kids» either, at least not with mine. Unfortunate because there aren’t that many places like this around here so too bad for us.

We drive from Fredericksburg just to get my two year olds hair cut. They are great and good at what they do. There is all kinds of toys for the kids to play with before or after the haircut, along with kid movies playing on tv’s. My child loves to go here and is so relaxed while getting his hair cut. It is totally worth the drive and money to me.

We’ve been taking our 3 ½ year old son here since his very first haircut. Kids get to play with trains on a train table while they wait but we’ve never had to wait longer than 5 minutes. Then your child gets to pick which vehicle they want to sit in(or, if your kid is like mine was when he was really little, they can sit in a regular barber’s chair in your lap) and watch kids movies. They are even treated with animal crackers! So, distractions abound to make them completely forget what they came for — the haircut. If you go on a Tuesday, you’ll get a double stamp on your frequency card. If you go on a Thursday, you’ll get $ 2 off the cut(we alllways go on a Thursday). And if you fan them on Facebook, you’ll get $ 3(I think it’s $ 3 but you’d have to check on that) the first time. I will say though that I definitely would not be giving them 4 stars if it weren’t for Veronica — she gives the best, more consistent cuts. I always call ahead and make sure she’s working before I go because while my son has gotten okay cuts from others, Veronica is the best. I even had her cut mine last time we went and she was fast and thorough. It’s not a salon and you won’t get a salon style(my hair didn’t get washed or dried) but it was probably at least equal to if not better than a haircuttery cut.

Both times I’ve come here I’ve loved the atmosphere, the friendliness, the price($ 16 bucks for a boys haircut) and the speed. I usually come in the middle of the weekday and it’s usually empty. The seats are little vehicles(like police cars and fire engines) and they have big screen TV’s right near the mirror so kids can be distracted by the TV when they get their haircuts. The stylists are obviously very kid friendly and know how to work with them. There are also train tables and toys out for kids if there did end up being a wait. This is the perfect place for kids to come to get their hair cut and I will definitely return. So why only four stars? Both times, I haven’t actually loved the haircut. They get it close to what I’m asking for, and they certainly don’t do a bad job, but it’s never quite what I want. So four stars for you, pigtails and crewcuts.
