Yonas did a fantastic job on my sons hair It’s hard to find a barber that can really cut Afro hair and for mixed kids he took his time with the young fella and he was really happy I think he will be our regular barber from now on.

The Hooligans Difference In Numbers

We skip the empty promises and focus on what actually matters for you and your child. While every kid is different, you can expect these baselines when you book with us.

0 Mins

Average Wait Time

Your appointment is your time. We run on schedule, which means you walk in and sit straight down, taking the stress out of waiting with a restless child.

30 Minutes

Average Unrushed Appointment

We block out a generous 30-minute slot for our Little Hooligans. This gives us plenty of time for a quality cut, with breaks if needed, ensuring the experience is calm and never rushed.

4-6 Weeks

Average Cut Longevity

We cut hair with structure, focusing on how it grows out. This means the style holds its shape for an average of 4-6 weeks, keeping your little one looking sharp for longer.

We don’t just give the little ones a quick once-over. We deliver a legit barbershop experience built on patience. Here’s the deal when you book a spot with us.

YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED

Everything You Need To Know

Got a question? We’ve got answers. Here are a few common ones. If you need anything else, just give us a yell.

What age do you cut kids’ hair?

We welcome kids of all ages.
Every child is different, so rather than age, it comes down to how comfortable they feel sitting in the chair. If they’re not quite ready yet, no stress we can always try again another time.

Please note that extremely detailed haircuts may not be possible on all children, it will depend on their level of comfort and stillness in the shop and with getting their hair cut.

A guide on ages:

0 – 3 yrs old can typically be challenging to cut due to their energetic natures. Clients can give us a call if their kids are below the ages of 3 if they’re unsure if we can service them or not. While we can cut these children’s hair we do only recommend bringing your child in if they’re comfortable in the shop and can sit still relatively well.

4 – 12yrs old is the perfect age to bring your child into the barbershop. At this age children are typically able to sit still very well creating a safe and comfortable experience.

No stress we work with kids all the time.

We’ll do our best to keep them comfortable, but if things become too overwhelming or unsafe, we may need to pause and reschedule.

Yes, we take our time and keep it relaxed. Feel free to bring anything that helps (snacks, toys, iPad, etc).

Everything from simple trims to fades and more detailed styles.

If you’ve got a reference photo, feel free to bring that in as it helps a lot.

It happens on occasion, we’ll always try our best, but sometimes it’s better to try again another day when they’re more comfortable if they’re refusing the haircut adamantly.
