First haircut...

M. Louis Hair & Nail Salon of Palm Coast

When you discuss your child's upcoming trip to the salon, use the word "trim" instead of "cut" to explain what the stylist is going to do.
That way, he won't be totally freaked out.

Choose your child's hairdresser wisely!
You'll want to find someone who's comfortable working with young children.

Realize that their first haircut could be a little traumatic for your child.
Not only will he be in a strange environment, but there will be scissors flashing and clippers buzzing!

Change your child's shirt after his haircut.
It will minimize post-haircut itchiness.

Don't forget to save a lock of your child's hair... it's an important memento for the baby book.
