If you are a mother taking your son to the barber for a haircut, this experience can be stressful for both of you. It doesn’t have to be though. Try these tips for a more relaxed and stress-free trip to the barber with your son.
1. Wash Before Appointment
First, make sure your son’s hair is thoroughly washed before their appointment. Dirt, dandruff, and grease can make your son’s hair more difficult for a barber to work with, which can lead to a more uncomfortable and time-consuming experience.
2. Pre Pick a Haircut & Style
Next, be clear about the type of haircut you want for your son. Talk with your son first to agree on the cut and style. Then, talk it over in-depth with your son’s barber. You want to make sure all three of you are on the same page.
3. Practice at Home
If this is your son’s first trip to the barber, practice before your trip. Sitting your son down in a chair at home can prepare them for their first appointment. Act out a trip to the barber at home to help your son get used to sitting still while someone cuts their hair.
4. Give Him a Treat
Sometimes it can be helpful to provide your son with a treat during his trip to the barber. A small treat can keep your son occupied while they get their hair cut.
5. Tip the Barber
Lastly, be sure to tip. Not only is tipping your barber customary, but it also sets a good example for your son.
