Snip Its

We were told to go here by a good friend. I was a bit concerned about the fact there’s no appointments but seeing as there’s no children’s hair cut places around I decided to try here. We waited over an hour and 15 minutes for our two boys to get hair cuts but Sandy was worth the wait! It really takes a special person to give a quality kids haircut while they are screaming and kicking. She was caring friendly and patient with my young boys. Not only did she take her time and do a good job while my son was crying his eyes out but she made extra time at the end to get them a lollipop and little small gift. We will definitely be returning as I can’t find anywhere near Wayne to get a good kids haircut! The Only reason I took a star off is the wait.

We have had great experiences at Snip-​Its. Miss Jazz did a great Job on my girls’ hair. She is fun, engaging, and wonderful with kids. We will be going back to her. My girls’ braids lasted more than a week and even stayed in after multiple washings.

I took my daughter for her very first hair cut and was very pleased! We walked in and Miss. Jazz began to help us right away. She gave my daughter a great experience for the very first time. Miss. Jazz did a great job!!! I would recommend this to any parent who wants a kid oriented place for their haircut! I will be back for sure!!!

Stay away. Attitude of the staff is terrible for a kids place. They obviously didn’t want to be there. One stylist was upset about a tip, so she sat behind the desk for the last hour turning people away while everyone waited for one stylist. On top of it, our rushed haircut (for $ 18) came out really bad and we’re headed to another place today to have it fixed. Just another example of poor management. This place has potential. Too bad… We won’t be back.

I love Snip Its!!! I’ve taken my son, who is under 2, here twice. Let me tell you, he is a handful. He runs around the shop, won’t sit still for long, and the staff is GREAT with him! They are very kind, patient, and understanding. They work with my son, even if it takes them a long time to cut his hair. As for the comment about smoke breaks, I need a smoke break after taking my son, so I completely understand lol.

While there are limited options for kids haircuts — I loathe coming here. They are always understaffed and the wait is ridiculous.

Went here twice before and had a decent experience. However, today had a terrible experience, girl didn’t listen at all to how I wanted my 20 month olds hair cut and cut it way too short, and without asking at the end of the cut literally doused his head with some spray mouse product, soaking his head. I actually grabbed a tissue to try to soak it up! My son has really sensitive skin and I don’t use unnecessary products on him. When I realized what she was spraying on his head, I thought it was water, I told her to stop and that I didn’t want that on him. She said it was to keep his hair from getting frizzy… ?! He’s a baby with super straight hair! Ugh. I was so so annoyed. Still am. I won’t be back.

I have no idea why others are giving this place bad reviews. The staff is friendly and love kids, and they really make sure to make your kid comfortable. I just brought my baby for his first haircut and it went super smoothly. He loved all of the distractions. I’ll be back for sure!

We love it here. Walk ins. Polite stylists and a gift for each child. My four year old cannot wait to go back. They do parties too.

The atmosphere is great for kids. However, the staff is not professional at all. I waited 20 minutes to have my sons hair cut, while the stylist was on a smoke break. Very very expensive for a child’s haircut, you can go to Hair Cuttery for half the price. It has the potential to be something great, if the stylists would get their act together.

I am mentally scarred by the demonic creatures in this establishment. This is not the place to take your children.

If you have a child who is afraid of haircuts, this might be the place for you. It is full of fun colors and there is even a special video for them to watch. At the end, they can put a big token in the machine to get a prize (think 20 cent plastic matchbox). The haircut my son got wasn’t very good, though. The top was chopped funny and didn’t blend in. It just hung unevenly on his forehead. When we got home after the haircut I realized that his hair was pushing out over one ear. So two hours after the cut I was forced to trim around his ear where it should have been done. The trim around the other ear was jagged. She also did not use any clippers to clean up around the ears or back of his neck saying it was pretty clean. There were wisps of hair hanging down, but since he’s blond at least they weren’t that noticeable All in all, it’s just too expensive for a so-​so cut. I could have done as well or better at Hair Cuttery, driven a shorter distance and spent less. (May 2012 — 2 stars)
Update June 2012. I thought I’d give this place one more try just in case the first time was a fluke. Well, bad choice. The hair was chopped unevenly everywhere. The cowlick I pointed out and asked to not be cut short had been hacked and the hair was sticking up. The trimming around the ears and back to clean up the cut was uneven and the girl even nicked my son, drawing blood. I could see that it was supposed to have been cut so that it met at the middle of the back of his head. Unfortunately, the two sides «met» about an inch or so off the middle. My son sat quietly without moving, so this wasn’t caused by any child-​like behavior from him. I’ve reduced my rating to 1 star now — would have given zero but not possible. $ 18 for a haircut this bad is ridiculous.

Horrible! I brought my 20 month old son and requested a trim. Our Stylist, Jen, cut his hair way too short and it wasn’t even on both sides. She scalped him on the one side and in the back. She said that he had moved. If they are going to specialize in cutting kids hair they should know how to deal with issues like that. He’s been getting his hair cut since he was 6 months old and I’ve never had a problem before. They did of fer to «fix» it, but I was not going to let them touch his hair again. I took him to my stylist and she was able to make it look a whole lot better. It’s a good thing his hair grows quickly. NEVER AGAIN!

I had been looking for a place to take my toddler to get his haircut. Obviously someplace kid friendly as the only place he’s had his haircut is on his little chair in our family room. However, because my sister, the main person that cuts his hair, lives about an hour away, and it just stopped being convenient, I decide that he needed someplace to get a proper hair cut.
This is the only place that I know of with in a 20 – 25 minute drive from my house. While it’s still a bit of a drive, it was totally worth it.
Because it’s catered to kids, there’s all sorts of fun bright colors and things for them to play with. Each station has a tv with some movies for the kids to watch, or they can play games if they’re a little older. It’s nothing commercial, as I’ve heard in some places, but it doesn’t matter, they’re pretty quick.
We got there five minutes before they opened and there was already a crowd at the door. Even though we were about 5^th in line, the wait was only about 20 minutes or so, maybe even less. Once our name was called, we hopped up into the chair and the woman was very patient while I explained that my son has weird hair that lays funny and please don’t cut it however you see fit, because I’m one of those paranoid mothers, blah blah blah.
My son immediately started to cry, but with a little reassurance was ok, and thankfully they deal with kids that are apprehensive on a regular basis, so she wasn’t even phased in the slightest and it was over before he knew it. We were pretty impressed with his new haircut.
Another thing I noticed is that they have a night set aside especially for kids that are on the spectrum, or just really scared. They can go in and get a tour, and just sit in the chair if they want. Anything that might help put their mind at ease. I thought that was great.
I’ll definitely make this his regular haircut spot from now on. He really surprised us.
