Sharkey's Cuts for Kids is an independently owned and operated franchise location in Falls Church. Franchise locations may set their own appointment rules, including deposits and grace periods for late arrivals.
The salon says its aim is a well-finished haircut from warm, experienced stylists in a clean, playful setting. By its own account it has been cutting hair for more than 24 years and has completed over 10 million haircuts, and it reports that 97% of clients recommend it. These are the salon's own figures.
The visit is built around the child's comfort. Kids can sit in a car-shaped chair, such as a police cruiser, toy jeep, race car or mini car, while watching cartoons or Netflix. The salon also offers a social narrative to help children with anxiety or sensory sensitivities feel at ease before a cut. Each haircut includes a wash, cut and blow-dry, along with video games, a minicure, a balloon and a lollipop.
Parents are welcome too. There is a private lounge for a parent's haircut or wash and style, and Xbox stations and a Tween Lounge for older kids. Day of Beauty brings hair, nails and makeup into a private Tween Lounge for up to an hour. Appointments can be booked online or in store, and cancellations need at least 24 hours' notice to avoid fees.
Built around a comfortable, playful experience for children, with a clean salon and stylists the salon describes as warm and experienced.
A clean, playful space with car-shaped chairs, cartoons and video game stations.
