Haircut Anxiety

We understand that every child has different requirements, that's why we offer a choice of different style appointments to suit each individual family and their child's needs.

- GET TO KNOW ME: This is a free appointment to let your child familiarise themself with our salon surroundings, before actually having a haircut.

- LITTLE FIDGETY: For children who move around alot and may end up on a parents knee. We recommend booking our sensory room.

- SUPER FIDGETY: Two stylists do the haircut together to make the experience as quick as possible, normally with clippers all over or on the back & sides and scissors on top.

More sensory appointment options are available in the autism awareness section.

Autism Awareness

Our team at Fidgets are patient, caring and Autism friendly. Our stylists have gained valuable experience and knowledge over time, this has helped them understand more about Autism. With the help and guidance from parents or guardians, we as hairdressers aim to achieve a successful haircut by making it as stress-free as possible.

Some of the things we can offer are:
- Calm: Quieter Clippers or Scissor Only Cuts.
- Fun: Use of our Xbox, Nintendo Switch, iPad's and character cars.
- Sensory Room: For a calmer environment with lights and sensory toys. Available every day when booked in advance.
- Private Booking: A 30 minute one on one appointment with your stylist before the salon opens or after the salon closes.
(The sensory room is not available on these bookings.)
