Baby’s First Haircut

Your baby’s first haircut is a big deal! Many LA kids’ salons make it a celebration with a certificate, a photo and a lock of hair to save. Bubble Cuts, Cookie Cutters, Sharkey’s, Lollicut, First Cut 4 Kids and The Great Bear Cut all offer some version of a first-haircut package (see the table above).

Some kids are nervous the first time. Pick a kid-focused salon, go when your child is fed and rested, and bring a favorite toy or snack. Haircuts for little ones are quick, so you’ll be in and out fast.

Kids’ Haircuts FAQs

When should my baby get their first haircut?

There’s no official right age. The American Academy of Pediatrics notes that most “baby hair” falls out during the first six months and is replaced by mature hair, so many families wait until after that (HealthyChildren.org). Most first haircuts happen somewhere between about 8 months and 2 years, often when hair starts falling in the eyes.

How much does a kids’ haircut cost in Los Angeles?

In our October 2026 check, kids’ cuts at LA kids’ salons ran about $30–$45. First-haircut packages run about $37–$45 and usually include a certificate, a photo and a lock of hair.

How do I prepare a nervous child for a haircut?

Talk through each step ahead of time, practice a pretend haircut with a doll, and visit the salon once before the real appointment. Book a quiet time of day, and bring a comfort toy. For kids with sensory sensitivities, try headphones and ask for scissors instead of clippers.

Where can I get a sensory-friendly haircut in LA?

The Great Bear Cut and Little Kuts (Pasadena), The Shaggy Monkey (South Pasadena), Family Cutz (Paramount), Cookie Cutters (Brentwood, Manhattan Beach, Sherman Oaks) and Raffi’s (Long Beach) are all known for accommodating kids with sensory needs.

Do kids’ salons cut adults’ hair too?

Many do, including Bubble Cuts, Lollicut, First Cut 4 Kids, Rock’N Cuts, Kidz Cuts and Waves and Sparkles and Spikes. That means the whole family can go at once.

How can I trim my child’s hair between appointments?

Keep it simple. Trim tiny amounts at a time, and use a detangling spray on curly hair. Save bigger changes for the salon.

Dealing with lice?
