We have a fussy almost-three year old who is still extremely averse to haircuts, even after getting his haircut by kids specialists for a year and a half. We were in VaBeach from out of town this weekend and long overdue for a cut. Andrew Q was by far the best stylist we have had with him! Not only was it a great cut but he was fast, efficient, and handled his screams and tears incredibly well. It can be such a draining experience for parents of screaming toddlers, and Andrew knew just how to make everything easier. We go to VA Beach every few months, and a haircut will not be on our itinerary every time! read more

Ask for Kareema!! Just had my 2 year old son's first haircut with her today and WOW!! she was incredible! She is a skilled stylist and has a way with kids. Still can't believe he sat through the whole thing happily and his cut looks amazing! read more

I wish there was a star that said 50/50 because that's exactly how I feel... the ladies who work there are very nice! However, the price for the cut done is just not worth it. I've watched YouTube videos at this point and can cut it myself ... but $40 for my 3 year old is just wild! Bangs alone is $7.... I just can't justify the price for the cut! BUT if you have a wiggly toddler then these ladies can definitely handle it read more

My 2 year old granddaughter's first haircut was made very special by the staff. She loved sitting in the little car as Andrew expertly cut her hair. He made her feel at ease. Thank you all. read more

This review is primarily based on the price of the "first haircut package." I was under the impression my daughter was going to get a wash and blow dry included in the $29.95 price tag. That was not the case. She got some water sprayed on her hair and with about two minutes of hair cutting. They braided her hair and gave her bow along with a picture and a few pieces of her cut hair. Worth $30? Certainly not. She was in the chair for a solid six minutes if not less. Do not come here if you're thinking this will be a real hair salon experience. Grab some scissors and do the chop yourself then take a picture on your iPhone and call it day. Honestly, cringing I just spent $30 on that experience. read more

I'm giving 4 stars because the manger made things right with me after one of the employees had trouble with my daughter's hair.

The BEST experience!!! My kids received awesome haircuts and the ladies were super nice! They also gave them lollipops and had a treasure box to choose a toy! We will be back!!! read more

My son got the best haircut by Abby yesterday. She's been my favorite so far. Before and after pics below! read more

I took 3 of my girls ages 4,3,1.5 in for their first haircut that was long overdue: my 4 year old Donated nearly a ft of hair to Wigs for Kids and the gals that cut my girls hair we're wonderful. I'm glad we went here as if we went elsewhere for their first cut I'm sure they would've been less than impressed but thankfully they were so excited to pick a seat and get their haircuts! They got a lollipop and animal crackers from the gals as a treat and were able to watch a Disney Movie while getting their cuts so were plenty distracted! Tina and Jynnifer (I might have misspelled her name) were wonderful and sweet to my babies! The price is great for the experience! I'm looking forward to getting a package for our little boy in the future when he is at least a year but has a head full of hair. Girls were able to pick a toy out of a container after their cuts while I paid so it was nice to have that as well. read more

Long wait times for mediocre cuts. Ended up leaving 20min after the scheduled appointment time and still hadn't been seen. Wouldn't recommend this place if you have somewhere to be or just don't want to sit in a kids salon all afternoon. read more

Weve taken my son here twice and everytime we go the ladies are all great with him! He hates his haircut and it's a big tantrum but they're so fast that we're in and out! Best place we've been to! read more

I asked TWICE for the cosmetologist to not cut the back of my sons hair, and left with half the hair he originally had on the back. When I asked her to stop cutting in the middle of the cut she said "oh I'm not, I'm just blending it" he left with a choppy ridiculous haircut. Very disappointed. read more

I love this place! For toddlers, this is definitely the place to go. I took my toddler here for his first haircut, and it was such a great experience! With little ones, they aren't the most patient human beings, so they need to be entertained. This place has a small area where you wait, where they have a little train station, along with plenty of other toys to keep them occupied. Their stations have seats where it imitates a vehicle (airplane, motorcycle, etc.) to make it more fun for the kids. They also offer little snacks for the kids while they get their haircut, and play cartoons on the tv for them, as well. My son LOVES coming here and doesn't complain about getting his haircut. The only issue I have is not being able to make an appointment ahead of time, and sometimes their cuts don't necessarily look the best. But for convenience, and no whiney children, this is the way to go. read more

Jennifer was so kind and did any amazing job on all 3 of my kids ! She even styled my twin girls hair and they felt like princesses all day!

Love getting the kiddos cuts here. Everyone is so patients and great with children. My kids look forward to getting their treasure box prizes. My daughter loves the gorgeous braids they give her after every haircut. read more

My nephew got traumatized by this place. Each time we go it gets worse. They dont even try to soothe the kids. Theyre just in a hurry to get it over with and go to the next kid. You can even see the frustration in their faces more than the parents. read more

Our daughter decided to donate her hair when she was 4, and then again at around age 6. Each time, we visited Pigtails & Crewcuts and they did an amazing job. They also made her feel special for making the decision to donate her locks. Now we take our little son to Pigtails & Crewcuts and he loves the toys available to kids as they wait, the cool chairs just for kids, and the post-cut treasure chest. Staff is caring, wait time is minimal, and pricing is reasonable. Great place for kids! read more

Jennifer cut my son's hair and I cannot say enough good things. It is usually a struggle to cut his hair, but not today! Not only was it the fastest hair cut he's gotten, but it was also best. If you have a toddler who hasnt loved hair cuts, this is the place to go. Above all, she was anticipatory about what would upset him, and she would give him toys in advance. This was not stressful for once. For reference, my son is 18m old. read more

Today, I took my 3 year old for a hair cut. He HATES getting a hair cut! Screams, cries, throws a monster tantrum every time. Sam was our lucky stylist today and man, she was quick & right to the point with my little one. He had to sit on my lap, cried for the 8 min cut (bc she's that quick!) after she only charged me for half a cut bc all we did was a fade/clean up the sides. So THANK YOU! read more

Took my toddler to get his haircut, he sat very well so it can't be used as an excuse. I told the lady to just take off a little tiny bit cuz I liked his curls she took a ton off and once it dried some pieces were long some pieces were and his bangs were lopsided. I've tried calling for 3 day now to get ahold of someone and they won't answer their phones .do not recommend read more

Super disappointed. I took my two boys in over the weekend for a trim and their hair is a disaster. B9th of their chits were choppy and uneven. When I walked in to church the next morning someone asked if I did it myself with my kitchen scissors. I ended up just having to shave their head because their hair looked that bad. $40 down the drain. I do not reccomend going here. read more

Got both of my kids first haircuts here because a friend recommended them to me. Although it was a little pricey they were VERY good with the kids. They really do know how to work with kids and trust me, mine are very scared of everything! The fact that my kids weren't scared AND enjoyed it is worth the 5 stars! *went here again recently and my son was throwing a huge fit. The staff was excellent and helped us get through it. Love this place! read more

This is our most favorite place. For a first time or anything else this location has it all. As well I took both of my girls at the same time which generally they are a handful. My oldest 5 year old has autism and I was nervous as to how this was going to go. It went so smooth and fun. All smiles walking out if there. special thanks to Samantha who was our stylist simply amazing. Thank you personally for that experience!!! read more

I cannot recommend P&C enough. My daughter had some bad knotting in her hair, and they spent two hours working with her. Despite the crying and wailing, they were very professional and I'm grateful to the staff for working with us. Will definitely be back, hopefully for just normal haircuts. :) read more

Anyone that can keep my 20 month old son still and entertained while cutting his hair deserves 5 stars!

If I were to report this without a star I could. I worked as a hair dresser. Did hair shows for the profession, behind the curtains. I worked 7 days a week for 12 years. I left due skin problems, a job that I loved, but when your hands are bleeding, the only cure is to quite. I brought my daughter here 2 separate occasions and had horrible hair cuts both times. read more

Walked in and didn't wait long at all. The hairdresser was awesome with my daughter and made the experience great. The price was not bad at all. Would highly recommend. read more

My little people have gone here since they were 6mo. They find the interactive atmosphere with trains and movies highly entertaining. The pricing is a bit high, since typically a child's cut isn't that complicated. However, I appreciate the patience and quickness this job requires. read more

Stacy and Sam are the best. Our son has only gotten haircuts here. When he was younger and less tolerant Sam made him feel welcome and safe. He visto s going on 9 and we still go when he needs a cut. The call ahead is awesome and I use it when I'm running errands and put it in my list of stops. Clean and friendly service along with a great haircut is why we keep coming back. read more

We brought my daughters in for haircuts for the second time, and they just loved it! Everyone is very nice, and they make the kiddos comfortable. My older daughter was so excited about the "fancy" braid she got. I loved that the stylist showed me how I can do the braid at home, too! She was super nice about me asking about it! read more

I took my grandson for a haircut, at P&CC, this week. These people are great with children!!! The salon is clean, following Covid safety guidelines, and has such a great atmosphere. And---the haircut was perfect!!! You and your child will love them! read more

Perfect place to bring my 18 month old that HATES haircuts. Even though he's crying, they are very sympathetic and quick! And he looks great afterwards! The train table definitely makes it more inviting for him. Now if I can only remember the girl's name that cut his hair last time. She was amazing! read more

Expect LONG waits while half the chairs sit unattended by stylists. I frequent this place for my 4 & 6 yr olds. They take reservations but often don't answer their phone. On 6 May I called 5 minutes before opening to get my son on the list. I arrived just 10 min later at 0905. They had not listened to my voice mail or added my son to the list. Coming in just 5 min after opening out my son 5th in line and gave us a 40 minute wait. While the stylists are always great, the cashier/receptionist position needs more training. The salon also needs 3 more stylists, as 3 of the 6 chairs were not used, and I have never seen all chairs attended out of our 6-7 visits here. read more

We we're walk-ins on a Friday afternoon. They were very busy, so we put our names on the wait list and went next door to Taste to kill time. My kids really wanted to try this place because they got to play with cool Brio train table while waiting and mainly because they got to sit in a plane or a police car, etc while getting their hair cut. There was also a tv playing "Cars" for their entertainment. My daughter was only getting a bang trim, but the stylist offered to braid her hair like a Disney princess. My daughter loved that and looked ADORABLE too! My son has great platinum blonde curly hair that is a little long with a few layers (a surfer hairstyle). I usually have a hard time finding someone who cuts it right. But, his stylist did a great job! We were very pleased! It was busy and a little pricey, but my kids looked GREAT and walked out with smiles on their face. So, I will return again.:) read more

So, I have a son who has a TON of awesome hair, and its long. While I happen to think little boys with long hair are wicked cute, I got super fed up one day when 7 different people called my son a she. Now, I don't dress him in any queer colors either, he had on blue and brown and was carrying around a dumptruck. Whatever, people are dumb and should usually not talk but that is beside the point. Anyway, I decided to pop in here just to see what it was all about. SO CUTE! Such a fun, colorful environment for little kids to be pampered and all the employees were on some sort of sugar coated crack that I need to get my hands on. Loved the enthusiasm they all had about cutting screaming kids' hair. That job is not easy. Anyway, I liked what I saw until I saw the price list. I guess I should have expected it considering I spend about $70 on my own mane, for a TRIM.. It is what it is. Cant be too mad considering what they deal with since "hold still" does not register to anyone under the age of 5. Anyway, in the end, I decided not to cut my sons hair. I love it too much and think it suits his laid back personality, but I will TOTALLY come here once I do decide to take the plunge. It really is a fabulous concept and I am excited to have discovered this place. read more

What a great concept! My son had his first haircut here, and we've been going every since (2 years now). I tried once to take him somewhere else because it was more convenient, but he was terrified. We didn't even stay for the haircut. They have a train table in the waiting area, which my son adores, and books and stuffed animals for the kids to play with. There cutting stations are old-fashioned looking vehicles that they can sit in and pretend to steer. They also always have some kind of cartoon/kids move in to distract the kids, and even one station where video games are available for them to play. This is really so nice when the kids are too young to really sit still for a haircut. The staff is friendly and relaxed...Oh, and the haircuts are good too! read more

Seriously doesn't get any better than this! Took my 2-year-old son here for his first haircut about 8 months ago, and the services were exceptional. Loved the "first time cut" package. Took him to 2 other places in-between now and then and they messed up my son's hair both times. Finally returned back here this week, and Momo cut his hair. Looks so handsome!!! Highly recommended. read more

Nice, clean hair cuttery for the kids! Gigantic selection of hair stuff for the girls, too. Polite, nice folks at the front desk and cutting hair. Enjoy a cut in the themed chairs at place that will treat your kiddo like royalty! read more

Great place for kids, my boy did not want to leave the train table. The lady who cut his hair did an excellent job at being quick since he was a bit scared. Definitely going back. read more
