Sharkey's Cuts for Kids

Sharkey's Cuts for Kids is a children's hair salon in Gilbert, Arizona, serving kids and their families. The Gilbert location is independently owned and operated as a franchise under the Sharkey's brand, so details can vary from one location to another.

Boys' haircuts include a wash, cut and blow-dry. Girls' haircuts add a minicure and a glamour ring. The first-haircut package includes a certificate, a lock of hair to keep and a photo of the visit. Curls are styled in the Tween Lounge, where a minicure and a choice of glamour ring can be added. Braids in simple, sleek or creative styles, including French and fishtail braids, are offered alongside ballet buns, special-event up-dos and sleek ponytails for long hair. A Day of Beauty session covers hair, nails and makeup in a private Tween Lounge for up to an hour.

The salon describes its aim as a haircut experience with warm, experienced stylists in a clean, fun-filled setting. It states that it has more than 24 years of experience, has completed over 10.5 million haircuts, and that 97% of clients recommend it. It also calls itself the best kids' hair salon near me. These are the salon's own claims.

Parents can book a haircut or a wash and style in a private lounge while their children are seen. For children with anxiety or sensory sensitivities, a social narrative created on the website can help them prepare for a haircut ahead of time.

Appointments can be booked online or in the salon. Clients should cancel or reschedule at least 24 hours in advance, as late cancellations or no-shows may be subject to fees. Prices vary by location, stylist experience, service type, hair length, styling complexity and extra services. A parent or guardian must consent to services and supervise the child in the salon. The phone number is (480) 636-8886.

Aims for warm, experienced stylists and a clean, fun-filled environment, with haircuts designed to make children comfortable.
