Kids Haircut

[roamingglass]

My 26mth boy had a breakthru recently when he had his hair cut ($9) at Sri Nada (Malay barber chain at shopping centres like Parkway Parade and Compass Point) without any fuss. Think the trick is he watched me as I had my hair cut first and he wanted the same.


Before that we had to bring him to Junior League (chain of hair saloon for kids) where they play kids programme (like Barney or Thomas the Engine) while they cut his hair. Then at the end of it he gets a sticker sheet. But very expensive at $20 but that was the option option where he would not cry and move his head all over.

Supercut also have hair cut service for kids (I know Compass Point has) where they play kids program while they cut too. But its more expensive at $24.

I bring my kids to neighbourhood barber shop, $6 per cut. She use both scissor and clipper. Think you can always request the person to use scissor. I thought they are trained to use scissor to cut hair and the clipper is just used to finish up?

Oh ya, for my bb, I just use a big bowl, put it on her head and cut according to the bowl's shape. Free. :lol: The older kids, I bring them to barber, don't want them to have bowl styled hair to kindy :lol:

It's the block behind Chinatown Point. Dunno if it's too far for you. The block of flats, the ground and first floor has shops. The barber is on the first floor, there are a couple of barber shop there, ours is the less hip one, I can't remember the name, but the colour of the signage I think is like purple.

Ever heard of Snip Avenue? They only charge $3.80 for hair cut. But often very crowded so try to avoid weekend or peak period. They use scissors to cut my son’s hair, only use clipper for thinning. I’m sure they can cut without clipper if requested.

SAHM_TAN & Red_Snow,


Thanks for sharing with me, I will try them out if I happened to be nearby the salon.

Mummies, anymore to share so that I have more choices?

I used to bring my kids to snip ave and they charged $2.40 each! Even for adults. But I never dared to try their $2.40 haircut on my own hair...
