For many families, a child’s first haircut is more than a routine trim. It marks the transition from baby to toddler. Parents want to know:
· how to manage their child’s curls or bangs
· how to prepare kid's hair for birthdays, school photos, holidays, or family events
· how kids will respond to scissors, clippers, capes, unfamiliar sounds, or sitting still in a salon chair.
The new guide addresses those concerns in clear, parent-friendly language. Topics include signs a child may be ready for a first haircut, ways to talk about the appointment positively, comfort items to bring, how to schedule around nap and mealtimes, and what to do if a child cries or needs a break during the visit.
“At Pigtails & Crewcuts, we understand that a first haircut is a big moment for the whole family,” said Maura Parks, owner of Pigtails & Crewcuts East Memphis and a second location in Germantown. “Our goal is to make first haircuts feel safe and manageable for kids—and meaningful for parents—through practical preparation tips and kid-first service.”
The guide also highlights the First Haircut Package available at Pigtails & Crewcuts East Memphis, which includes a professional haircut, keepsake card, hair locket, and a photo marking the moment. It’s designed for parents who want to preserve the milestone without having to manage every detail themselves.
Pigtails & Crewcuts salons are built around children, with kid-friendly chairs, patient stylists, bright spaces, and distractions that help make haircuts easier. The East Memphis and Germantown salons serve families throughout Memphis, Germantown, and surrounding communities.
