Haircut needed!!

natkelly1983

Hi,

My son is nearly 3 and hates having his hair touched, washed, brushed etc.  I've tried cutting it when he's asleep but I'm not a hairdresser and it's beginning to look like a bowl cut.  I live in Egham, Surrey and wondering if anyone knows of any hairdressers with experience of autism?

Thanks

Natalie

    Haircuts were always traumatic when I was little but I can't really remember it very well. Recently I've found that some barbers seemed to have combs that were unbearably scratchy and sharp! It's really down to how careful the hairdresser is with their tools etc. A home visit sounds like a good idea, perhaps the hairdresser can do your hair first so that he deosn't feel singled out?
