Before the First Cut

Make your child’s next barbershop visit feel less overwhelming.

Before the First Cut is a parent’s guide to approaching a child’s first haircut—or a visit to a different barber—with greater confidence.

Drawing on more than 35 years of barbering experience, Robert Fletcher shares a barber’s perspective on preparing your child, choosing a barber, and communicating your child’s needs and the haircut you have in mind.

A more comfortable barbershop experience starts before your child sits in the chair.
