Bonton is one of those places that you hate to love.
Despite wanting to dismiss it as a chichi, overpriced, bourgeois department store for kids, it's actually a great haven for decorative ideas, cool kid accessories and vintage Photomaton snapshots!
But the cherry on the icing of the Bonton cake is really the hair salon in the back of the shop. Replete with sparkly lights, colorful seating, a blackboard table top for kids to color on, tons of children's books and ridiculously friendly staff, it's everything you could ever wish a kids' hair salon to be. Plus, the price is right! It's a reasonable 15E for a kids cut, so it was an obvious choice when we finally decided to treat our kid to his first "real" haricut (had you seen the previous homemade cuts you would convict us for having not sent him sooner)..
Not only was the cut super sharp and fantastic, but the experience top notch. Coralie, our hairdresser, entertained her little client with little coos, clever distractions and lots of positive messaging (aka, oh boy, the girls are going to go nuts when they see how cute you look with this cut..). She was right, everyone's going bonkers for his new do. Never thought I'd say this but I can't wait for his next trip to the hairdresser!
NB: They also do adult cuts too, and at really affordable rates! read more
