Laurie cut my child's hair the other day, and he absolutely it. She had such patience with him. We will definitely be coming back to her.

I am so grateful to KidSnips, and especially Alex, who is a stylist a manager there! In short, I have a 2.5 yr old son who has a lung condition and wasn't able to get a haircut throughout the pandemic. With things improving, we decided to call. I reached Alex on the phone. She went out of her way to schedule us at a time that would ensure we'd be the only people in the salon (due to our health concerns). That was special enough, but then to top it off she gave my cutie pie the absolute BEST haircut! It's very fair to say that I am VERY picky! On top of which my son has really curly blonde hair. I wanted to keep it long (still baby looking - not big boy looking yet) but also didn't want him to be mistaken for a little girl. She nailed it! read more

Took my son here for a haircut. He is only a year old but his hair sticks straight up and doesn't look good grown out. I was hesitant to bring him in because he completely flips out when he gets it cut but he really needed a haircut. I was able to get an appointment same-day, with Miss Heather. She was absolutely amazing with him (she said she had a son about the same age, so that probably helped). He looked SO cute when she was done, so much better than when I cut it myself. I called for his next haircut and requested Heather but she is apparently helping another store for a month so I reluctantly agreed to see someone else and it was not good. It is pretty pricey for the amount of time it takes to cut a little guy's hair, so I won't go back unless I can have Heather cut his hair. The space is clean, but some of the toys for sale have been sitting for what looks like years. I'm not looking forward to when my son will understand that the toys there are for sale - just an annoying money-grab when the service there is already expensive. read more

Take my nephew 4yrs here and he loves it. The lady does a great job without giving him a hard time. She looks professional. Highly recommend for kids read more

This was a great experience for us! At first I was dismayed that the whole place is a kids toy advertisement, but the staff is really chill about kids playing with the toys without buying them. They have small trinkets that you can buy for $1-2, too, in case you feel the need to get them a treat. Michelle effortlessly handled first one and then the next child without blinking at the kids running around, and we left with the cutest little French braids on my 2 yr old (who has notably never sat still long enough for me to braid her hair!) First haircut photo, certificate, and clipping. And my 4 yr old son looked handsome and polished for his Christmas photos! read more

I don't recall participating in a particularly heinous act recently, so I was baffled as to the reason I found myself in this torture chamber that is called KidSnips (I subscribe to the concept of karma). Imagine an hour of aimless wandering among several wall displays of overpriced, uninteresting toys all the while being assaulted with a cacophony of hysterical toddler wails and screams (this was a Monday evening near closing time) and then having to pay handsomely for the priviledge. That's KidSnips. Understaffed (as evidenced by the hour wait), nowhere to sit (except an empty toddler barber's chair), pricey, and highly unpleasant. When our turn eventually rolled around, the stylist did a good job, but the trade off isn't worth it. read more

What a fun place for your little one to get their haircut. I took my daughter there for her first cut. She got to sit in a police car, and watch Dumbo. It was totally the best time. Once they were done, they: 1. styled my daughter's hair into these cute side braids and pulled them back. 2. took a picture for memories 3. gave a first haircut certificate, complete with a lock of her hair. 4. she got to choose a toy from the toy chest. 5. got a balloon Really we had a great time. I was impressed with the hairstylists experience with little children. Come on would you want to cut a 2 years head of hair? I recommend this place. I mean we got it all for under $20! Plus they have lots of toys all over the store that you can buy. I would recommend an appointment. We did walk in and well we had a wait. read more

This is by far my choice for my kids haircuts (ages 3 1/2 and 2 1/2). I went to "that other" kids haircut place - which was OK. But KidSnips has been excellent! They do a great job for "First Hair Cuts", and on going from there. My son loves it because he gets to pick what he wants to watch (from a pretty good selection of DVDs) - and he gets to pick a toy from the toy chest. And, they're pretty reasonably priced too. read more

I had made reservations for two kids at 6 pm, we were 10 min late. I apologized and asked to accommodate at least one kid...or wait for availability. They could care less, totally unapologetic...refused to seat us, said their haircuts are 15 min and our 15 mins we're almost done. There was only one other (screaming kid) in there, while both my kids were ready to go. they asked me to come back the next day (like that's a piece of cake when you're a working mother of 3 children). Very frustrating experience, wouldn't go back. read more

Took my son for his first haircut and we had an amazing experience! The lady was super friendly and patient with my squirmy 10 month old! They also gave us a cute certificate to frame of our first memory! ABSOLUTELY GOING BACK!!! read more

Our son is almost four and we've been taking him to see Alex since he was a baby about every month. We're always pleased with the results and he enjoys the experience. The first few times he was fussy, but Alex put him at ease each time and it's been smooth sailing since then. Staff in general has always been welcoming and the environment is extremely kid friendly. Highly recommend. read more

I am incredibly disappointed in my son's first haircut. The salon itself is essentially a dirty toy store, with a couple of car themed chairs throughout. The stylist, and I use that term loosely, who cut my sons hair was polite but clearly inexperienced. She used clippers on his neck which left half of the back of his head bald (literally) and even that hairline that is uneven, at best. I fully understand that toddlers are squirmy, however you'd think that since they do this for a living, they'd be competent. I showed my own stylist a photo of my son's hair cut and she was absolutely horrified. I will never, ever go back and I'd suggest that if you are looking for a hair cut that doesn't make your kid look ridiculous, find somewhere else. read more

We decided to take both kids in to get a haircut without making an appointment. The girls there were definitely pleasant and easy going. They handled both my kids quite well. I like that they give the kids an option to watch a video or play a game while they are getting their hair cut. Basically something to distract them from squirming around. The price is a little steep. I'm a little annoyed that they sell a ton of toys and hair accessories there. I had to play the bad mom to rip them out of my kids hands and leave with screaming little ones. read more

Brought my son here for his first haircut. Everything went perfectly! Love the certificate with his picture and first hair clippings! read more

My son hated getting haircuts so finding a place for him to be cool, calm and collected was challenging. A friend suggested I try Alex N at Kid Snips and it has been amazing.

When I first started coming here my son hated hair cuts and cried bloody murder, we went through a couple hair stylists here before booking with Alex and haven't seen anyone else since then! I've been a client for 2 years now and my son looks forward to haircuts now thanks to Alex, she is fast and so patient with kids. (Even those that move so much!) strongly recommend her!! read more

Our boys (5 & 7) love going to Kidsnips and seeing Miss Alex. Today she did an amazing job of fixing a haircut that our 5 year old gave himself yesterday. He went almost down to the scalp in one area. You almost can't tell that he did it... read more

We love Kidsnips. We have lived in many different states and have experienced a lot of stylists. I have 2 boys, 1 which has tricky hair. Alex is amazing with their hair. We have been going there for a few years now and will always go to Alex! read more

Pros: - A fun place - Can play video games/ watch movies - Price - Nice people Cons: - They don't try to calm your child they just keep cutting hair right through it (I brought my son to Lady Janes and they talked, played and he didn't shed a single tear) read more

This place was great and we'll definitely be back. Easy to get to the location. We made an appointment so there was no wait. Our 2 year old was FREAKING out so they even gave us a bit more time and were super understanding. The stylist was amazing given that our son was not the most cooperative. She was patient and soothing and fast. Giving this 4 stars only because there were a ton of toys on the wall and a little overwhelming, but overall a good place for a kid's haircut. read more

I have been going to kid snips since my son had his first haircut over a year ago. Always had a great experience, until today. I had an appointment at 5:30pm. At 5:35 I was still stuck in traffic on 59 so I called them to tell them I'd be late. When I called I was immediately put on hold, but could hear everything in the background. During that time the lady made a 6:00 appt and a 6:15 appt all while I'm sitting on hold. Finally she picks back up and said I will late, at least 10 minutes, is that okay? They said yes of course no problem. I arrived at KidSnips at 5:50. 5 minutes past my estimate of being 10 minutes late. The second I walk in the lady, Leah, was very rude. I tell her I had an appt and called to tel them I'd be late due to traffic. (Mind you including traffic and drive time this was over an hour trip for me.) She says oh, is it okay if we reschedule? Absolutely not, I said I just called and let you know I would be late, you said that was okay. I've been in the car over an hour now to get here. She says, well you said 10 minutes late. It's past 10 minutes. We can't see you. I asked why I wasn't told on the phone she said because I said 10 minutes and I was 15 minutes late. I tried to explain that I said ABOUT 10 minutes and that obviously traffic is unpredictable and I've made an hour trip now for nothing? She said again how I was past 10 minutes and that there is a haircut place across the street, maybe I should go there. I could not believe they would have someone so rude working their front desk. Now I also want to add while I was there, NO ONE WAS WAITING FOR HAIR CUTS. AT. ALL. The place was EMPTY besides one kid getting a hair cut. If my being late was an issue she could have told me over the phone when I asked if it was a problem. I then had to drag my son out without a hair cut while he was extremely upset because he was excited for this. I can not believe this woman is allowed to be so rude to customers and advise them to go to another hair cut place. Absolutely uncalled for and ridiculous. read more

We LOVE Ms. Alex at Kidsnips. She does a terrific job cutting and styling both of my son's hair. They have very different texture and hair type and she does great with both. She knows all of her clients and always talks with them and makes them feel comfortable and at ease. They've done a great job during COVID with masks, distancing out the stylist's stations and having strict maximum number of people allowed inside. Before entering your temperature is taken and you are asking Covid related screening questions. I feel totally safe taking my boys thanks to all of their precautions. Go see Ms. Alex! read more

We have gone to this location for years and have always had a good experience. The pandemic hasn't changed that! So easy to make an appointment online. We recently moved out of state and will truly miss Miss Alex cutting our boys' hair. She is the best!!! If you are looking for a place to take your kids for a haircut, look no further. Go see Miss Alex! You won't be disappointed! read more

On their website there is a section "Special Needs" with this line: Scared? Shy? Special needs? We love 'em all. What they don't say is that they won't serve them. We had researched a place for special needs kids and were excited to see this. But my six year old special needs grandson was just turned away. Very disappointed. I would put zero stars if it were possible. read more

Gavin loves haircut time. He gets to play Minecraft on the iPad and I get to sit and chat with our favorite stylist Michele! She's the best. Perfect cut every time. Would never think of letting someone else cut his hair! read more

loved this place. They were able to actually get my grandaughter to sit still and cooperate for her haircut. She was happy and so was I and her hair looked cute. Will be back. If they gave out wine and let me watch one of my favorite shows I would have them cut my hair, too. read more

My son got his first ever hair cut here and the stylist was amazing! My son is a pretty active little guy, that doesn't like to sit for more than 2 minutes at a time. The stylist let him sit on my lap for the hair cut and gave us an iPad filled with Disney Junior shows to watch! It worked perfectly and I may be biased but my son looked so very handsome when the stylist was done! read more

Had a very good experience. It was the first time my son did not cry during a haircut. Melissa was very patient and did an excellent job. She seemed genuinely concerned for my son and my family. The environment was clean and the kids were able to pick a prize out of the treasure box. read more

Took my one year old son for his first hair cut today. It was such a great experience! They are so nice, have lots of distractions, and patience. I highly recommend them. Ms Michelle was wonderful! read more

Loved our experience here! Nadya was great!! It was our daughters first haircut and Nadya made it a wonderful experience. She was quick and did exactly what we wanted. They had tons of movies to select from to keep our daughter distracted. After her haircut, our daughter received a certificate with her picture and a lock of her hair. Then she was able to pick a toy from the a treasure chest. Overall it was a great experience, and we'll definitely be returning. read more

I don't know what I'd do without KidSnips! We had tried cutting his hair at home which led to horrific results (bowl cut, anyone?) and my son freaks out whenever we're snipping around his ears. But the stylists here are not only patient, but they have a way of cutting hair quickly and efficiently. They've been able to get my son over his fear of "the buzzer", and he always looks forward to the treasure box and lollipop. No more bowl cuts and short-short bangs in this house! read more

Miss Denise is the best! She was so patient and understanding while my nephew Dominic got his hair cut (he screamed, cried the whole time, my sister had to hold him Lol). She did a great job. She was so sweet too. Thank you Denise :) read more

KidSnips is amazing! They always run on time, and have combined appointment times that work with my busy schedule. We have never had a bad haircut. My kids always see Miss Alex for years now and she is seriously the best! She remembers them by name and knows their haircuts and style preferences. The store is in a good location, and filled with toys. The kids get to pick from a treasure chest (free!) and always leave with a lollipop. My son loves that he gets to sit in a little police car and play on the iPad while his hair is being cut. My daughter loves that Miss Alex gives her cute hair clips or a little bit of washable hair dye to change up her look. If I could give them more then 5 stars I would! So highly recommended!!! read more

Go see Alex! She is the best. My kids and 1 and 2 and have been going to her since their first cuts. She really knows how to make my boys look so handsome. We've had to squeeze in cuts with other hairdressers, but no one compares to Alex. Her cuts are always super fast, clean, and even!! And her end of cut styling is a bonus!! read more

We have been going here since my son's first haircut at 9 months. Ms. Alex always does a great job, even when he is squirmy and fussy! He gets to sit in a police car, she puts his favorite show on the iPad and talks to him the whole time to put him at ease, and makes it go as quickly as possible. After he is done he always looks forward to picking a prize from the treasure chest. They did a really cute picture and certificate for his first haircut. I would definitely recommend Ms. Alex for your child's haircut! read more

Hands down the best place to take my boys for their hair cuts!! I love the girls that work here and the job they do is excellent. Even my kids love going!! read more

Took my son here for his first official haircut. It was my first time in a designated kid salon and I was pleasantly surprised. Balloons, bubbles, and Barney ... not to mention a treasure chest of goodies for my son to choose from after his haircut. Nicole was his stylist and she was fantastic with him. They took his picture and placed it on a certificate with a lock of his hair. Overall it was a pleasant experience. read more

Great place! Special thanks to Naoya for making this a Happy experience for me and my kid!
