A girls haircut (6–12) is designed for school-age girls who can sit comfortably and chat about what they'd like. Whether it's a quick trim to tidy up split ends, a new bob, some face-framing layers, or growing out a fringe, the team at Park Row will work with you and your daughter to create a style that suits her face shape, hair type, and daily routine — and keeps hair easy to manage for school, sports, and play.
More information
What happens during the appointment
The stylist will start with a quick chat with you and your daughter to agree on length, style, and how much to take off. Bring a photo if it helps! The cut itself takes around 30–45 minutes and may include:
- Dry or wash and cut, depending on hair condition and style
- Precision cutting to create shape, remove weight, or tidy ends
- A simple blow-dry or rough-dry to check the shape and finish
Our stylists — including Janet, Lynzie, Beckie, Alicia, Jess, and Imogen — are experienced with children and know how to keep the appointment calm, friendly, and fun.
Popular styles for this age group
Girls aged 6–12 can wear a wide range of styles, and we'll help you choose one that suits everyday life in Brighouse and beyond:
- Trims on long hair to keep ends healthy and prevent tangles
- Soft layers for movement and shape without losing length
- Long bobs (lobs) or one-length bobs for a neat, easy-to-manage look
- Face-framing layers or a fringe to add interest and suit face shape
- Growing-out styles with interim cuts to manage awkward stages
We'll always consider school rules (like whether fringes need to be off the face) and activities (swimming, dance, sports) so the style works when tied back or worn loose.
Keeping it looking great at home
A good cut makes daily hair care much easier. After the appointment:
- Brush daily with a gentle detangling brush to prevent knots
- Use a mild children's shampoo and conditioner suited to her hair type
- Tie hair back loosely for school and sports to reduce breakage
- Book a trim every 8–12 weeks to maintain the shape and keep ends healthy
If your daughter has thick, curly, or textured hair, we can recommend simple styling tips and products (like a light detangling spray) to make mornings easier. And if she's nervous about haircuts, just let us know when you book — we're used to working with children of all confidence levels and will take things at her pace.
