Our stylists are brilliant with school-age boys, creating smart, manageable styles that actually stay put through PE, playtime, and everything in between. Whether he's after a tidy crop for school or something a bit more textured, we'll chat through what works and deliver a cut that makes mornings easier for everyone. ## What to Expect We keep things relaxed and straightforward. Your appointment will include: - A quick chat about **length, style, and any school rules** (no surprise mohawks, promise) - **Clippers on the back and sides** to create clean fades or neat trims, blended into longer hair on top - **Scissor work** for the top section, fringe, and any layering or texture - Careful **detailing around the ears and neckline** for a tidy finish - A look in the mirror and any final tweaks before he hops down Our team—including Lynzie, Beckie, and Alicia—regularly work with children and know how to keep fidgeting to a minimum and cooperation high. We explain what we're doing as we go, and we're always happy to adjust if your child's a bit nervous about clippers or prefers things done in a certain order. ## Popular Styles for This Age Boys between 6 and 12 tend to go for styles that are **easy to manage** but still look sharp. Common favourites include: - **Fades** (skin, low, or mid) with a textured or spiky top - **Short back and sides** with length left on top for styling - **Textured crops** that work with natural growth patterns and cowlicks - **Longer, surfer-style cuts** for boys with wavy or thicker hair - **Undercuts** for a bit more edge (where school rules allow) We'll talk through what suits your child's **hair type**—straight, wavy, curly, thick, or fine—and how much daily styling you're up for at home. Bring a reference photo if it helps, or just describe what you're after and we'll take it from there. ## Keeping It Looking Good Aftercare is straightforward. **Wash with a gentle shampoo**, towel-dry, and style with fingers or a quick brush. For textured or spiky looks, a small blob of **child-friendly paste or pomade** does the job—nothing heavy or sticky. **Maintenance timing** depends on the cut: - Shorter clipper styles (fades, tight crops) usually need a **trim every 4-6 weeks** to stay sharp - Longer styles can stretch to **6-8 weeks** between visits We'll let you know what to expect based on the cut we've done, and you can book ahead in Brighouse to keep things regular. If your lad's hair grows fast or you want it looking fresh for school photos, err on the shorter side for booking intervals.

Boys haircuts for ages 6-12 start from £15. The appointment includes consultation, cutting, and styling, and takes around 30 minutes. Do I need to book an appointment or can we just turn up? We recommend booking ahead to avoid waiting, especially after school and on Saturdays when we're busiest. You can call the salon or book online. What if my son is nervous about haircuts or doesn't like clippers? Just let us know when you book. Our stylists are experienced with children and can adjust the approach—using quieter clippers, explaining each step, or changing the order to keep him comfortable. Should I bring a photo of the style we want? Photos are really helpful! They give us a clear idea of length, fringe style, and overall shape. If you don't have one, just describe what you're after and we'll work it out together. How often should we come back for a trim? It depends on the style. Shorter fades and crops usually need tidying every 4-6 weeks, while longer cuts can go 6-8 weeks. We'll advise you based on how fast your child's hair grows. Can you do fades and modern styles for boys this age? Absolutely. We do fades, textured crops, undercuts, and all the popular boys' styles. We'll make sure the look is age-appropriate and works with any school rules you mention. What products do you use, and are they suitable for children? We use professional Keune products in the salon. For styling at home, we recommend child-friendly pastes or light pomades—nothing harsh or heavy. We can advise on what works best for the style. Will the stylist work around cowlicks and tricky growth patterns? Yes, definitely. Our team knows how to cut with natural growth patterns, crowns, and cowlicks so the style sits right and is easy to manage at home. What should we do at home between cuts? Just wash with a gentle shampoo, towel-dry, and style with fingers or a brush. For textured styles, use a small amount of paste or pomade. Keep it simple—nothing complicated required.
