A visit is built around making the chair feel like an adventure. Children sit in themed haircut chairs shaped like a police cruiser, a Barbie Jeep, a race car, and a Mini Cooper, and can watch cartoons or Netflix while they are cut. Every haircut includes a wash, cut, and blow-dry, along with a balloon and a lollipop, and a minicure is included as well. For older children there is a Tween Lounge with video games and Xbox stations.
The salon also has services for milestones and for parents. A child's first haircut comes with a certificate, a lock of hair to keep, and a photo. Parents can book a haircut or a wash and style in a private lounge. Day of Beauty brings hair, nails, and makeup together in the Tween Lounge for up to an hour.
For children who find haircuts stressful, the salon offers a custom social narrative, created through its website, that walks a child through what to expect beforehand. This is aimed at children with anxiety or sensory sensitivities.
The business has franchise opportunities available.
The salon describes its approach as a haircut in a clean, fun-filled setting with stylists it calls warm and experienced.
A bright, playful space with themed car-shaped chairs, cartoons, and video game stations, designed to keep children entertained.
