Greater Boston has several kid-focused hair salons designed to make haircuts fun and stress-free. Sharkey's Cuts for Kids in Westwood (262 Providence Hwy) offers video games, car-shaped chairs, balloons, lollipops and manicures. Snip-its, founded in Massachusetts, is another kid-friendly chain. These salons specialize in children's cuts and first-haircut experiences, unlike standard barbershops.
For a first haircut, kid-specialty salons like Sharkey's Cuts for Kids in Westwood are ideal — they offer car-shaped chairs, video games and distractions that keep little ones calm, and many provide a first-haircut certificate with a lock of hair as a keepsake. Booking a mid-morning appointment after a nap and snack tends to work best for babies and toddlers.
