It's designed for children over 5 who can comfortably sit through the full service, and takes around 45–60 minutes so there's no rush. ## What Happens During the Appointment The service begins with a quick chat between you, your child, and the stylist to agree on the style — photos are always helpful. Then: - Hair is gently **washed and conditioned** with products suited to your child's hair type (fine, thick, curly, dry, etc.) - The stylist **cuts** the hair to the agreed style, using simple, practical shapes that grow out well and are easy to manage at home - Hair is **blow dried** on a low to medium heat setting, with extra care around the scalp and ears - The style is **finished** with a light, age-appropriate product like detangling spray or smoothing cream — nothing heavy or harsh for young scalps Our stylists are used to working with children and will take the time to explain what's happening and make sure your child feels comfortable throughout. ## Who This Service Is For This service is recommended for **children aged 5 and over** who are comfortable sitting still for around 45 minutes to an hour. Younger children may find the full wash, cut and blow dry process a bit much, and their scalps and hair can be more delicate — if your child is under 5, a quicker trim might be a better fit. It's ideal if your child: - Has longer or thicker hair that benefits from a proper wash and blow dry - Wants a neat, styled finish rather than just a quick trim - Is happy to sit through the whole process (or you'd like them to get used to a full salon experience) If your child has any **sensory sensitivities, anxiety, or special needs**, just let us know when you book so the stylist can adapt the approach — quieter tools, more breaks, or less use of the hairdryer if needed. ## Aftercare and Keeping the Style Fresh The finished style is designed to be **easy for you and your child to look after** at home. A few simple tips: - Use a **mild, child-friendly shampoo** and conditioner — ask the stylist for recommendations if you're not sure - **Brush regularly** to prevent tangles, especially for longer hair - Come back for a **trim every 6–10 weeks** depending on how fast your child's hair grows and the style - If the blow dry routine feels like too much at home, a quick towel dry and finger-comb works just as well for day-to-day Your stylist will recommend any light products that can help keep hair smooth and tangle-free between appointments. ## Planning Your Visit A couple of practical tips to make the appointment go smoothly: - **Time it right**: Book when your child is well-rested and fed, not during nap time or just before a meal - **Dress comfortably**: Choose clothes that are easy to wash, as tiny hair clippings can be itchy afterwards - **Bring inspiration**: Photos of styles you like are really helpful, though the stylist will advise on what's practical for your child's hair type and daily routine - **First-time nerves?** If your child hasn't been to a salon before, talk them through what will happen or show them pictures of salons so it feels less unfamiliar We offer **free 15-minute consultations** for new clients, so if you're not sure whether this service is right for your child, pop in for a chat first.

No, we don't recommend a full wash, cut and blow dry for under-5s. Younger children often find it hard to sit still for the full 45–60 minutes, and their scalps and hair are more delicate. A quicker trim is usually a better fit. How long does a Kids Cut & Blow Dry take? Around 45–60 minutes. This allows time for the wash, cut, blow dry and finishing without rushing, so your child feels comfortable throughout. How much does it cost? From £30. The exact price depends on hair length and thickness — your stylist can confirm the cost when you book. What if my child is nervous or has sensory sensitivities? Just let us know when you book. Our stylists can adapt the approach — using quieter tools, taking more breaks, or using less heat from the hairdryer if needed. What products do you use on children's hair? We use gentle, child-friendly shampoos, conditioners and finishing products selected for your child's hair type. Everything is mild and suitable for young scalps, with no heavy hold or harsh chemicals. How often should my child get a trim? Every 6–10 weeks is typical, depending on how fast their hair grows and the style. Your stylist can advise on what's right for your child. Can I stay with my child during the appointment? Absolutely. Most parents stay with younger children, and you're welcome to be there for the whole service to help your child feel comfortable. What should my child wear to the appointment? Comfortable clothes that are easy to wash. Tiny hair clippings can be itchy, so avoid anything too fussy or special. A loose collar makes it easier to fit the cape comfortably. Do you use heat on children's hair? Yes, but carefully. We use a low to medium heat setting on the hairdryer and take extra care around the scalp and ears. If you'd prefer minimal heat, just let the stylist know. What if I'm not sure what style to ask for? Bring photos of styles you like — they really help. Your stylist will talk through what's practical for your child's hair type, face shape and daily routine, and suggest options that are easy to maintain at home. This is for age12 or under.
