Huge thank you to the staff at Krabby Comb! This was by far the best experience we've ever had with kids haircuts. In the past, we, the parents, had to sit with the kids to hold them during the haircut due to all the crying and moving around. We would leave covered in hair and the kids were in tears. We then found Krabby Comb on Yelp and decided to give it a try. It's a little far for us but there arent that many kids hair places. When we arrived, we had appointments and could get both of the kids done at the same time! When you walk in, you can tell the place is geared towards kids. This was the first time we didn't need to hold the kids throughout the haircut. There wasn't any crying or screaming, they were given entertainment, and weren't traumatized by the clippers. At the end, the kids got little toy prizes to take home and if old enough, a lollipop. The haircuts were fast and really well done. The ladies there were all very in tune with what the kids needed throughout the whole procedure. And the biggest surprise is that my oldest son has already asked to go back for another haircut!! We are definitely coming back here again in the future. read more

Took my 1-year-old daughter for her 1st haircut and got the "1st Haircut" package. Generally happy with the overall cut for what we asked for, but not too happy with how clean and slightly uneven the cut turned out. Not too happy with how the appointment went either, and definitely not happy with the quality of customer service we received. Expectations: - Expected customer service to feel more welcoming and accommodating for kids. - Expected the stylist to be more diligent and professional with their service. - Expected a certain level of quality and care for my child, given a price of around $30 or more. What actually happened: - The stylist was quiet, maybe timid? Maybe not as experienced with handling babies, toddlers, or kids in general? Not sure. - We sat our 1-year-old on a stool meant for older kids. No booster seat was offered. No seatbelt was offered. The stylist didn't ask how we wanted to handle the seating situation or explain how she usually handles babies. Nothing. Just "ok, let's get started." - My daughter slipped off the chair, and if I hadn't kept my hands on her, she would have fallen to the ground. Only then did the stylist try to add some sort of seatbelt strap. And then I turn around to look in the corner of the store and I see a booster seat!! I didn't even ask at this point, but I'm surprised the stylist didn't even offer it as a solution! Lack of care for the safety of my child! - We were given the option to let our 1-year-old watch something on Disney+. So is this the crutch they rely on to distract kids? - My daughter was crying and screaming. Obviously, for her 1st haircut, it can be scary. But I don't blame her. The stylist wasn't interacting with her in any meaningful way to make her feel comfortable. I would expect a salon that specializes in kids' haircuts to actually be great with kids, or at least hire people who are experienced with handling children of all ages. - The stylist was having a really difficult time cutting my daughter's hair because she was crying uncontrollably. The crying itself isn't the stylist's fault. Maybe it's my job as a parent to try to calm her down? Sure. But part of the reason my daughter was crying was likely because she was unfamiliar with the stylist and the whole experience. You would think the stylist would try to offer some solutions? Or at least try to be more entertaining, engaging, or friendly with the child? Her best idea was offering a keychain with a key on it? - The stylist was able to get most of the haircut done, but at a certain point, she asked, "Is that good enough?"..... I mean, I get that the customer ultimately has the final say, right? But the cut still looked unfinished and slightly uneven. Again, I can't 100% blame the stylist. She tried her best with my screaming and flailing daughter. But don't just ask me, "Is this good enough?" I think at that point, the stylist could have offered her professional opinion and said something like: "I know you wanted this style of cut, and there are still some areas that could be cleaned up better, but I can see your daughter isn't having a good time. Would you like us to try working together to calm her down so we can finish, or would you prefer to leave it as is?" That kind of communication would have gone a long way. It would have shown some professionalism, experience, and genuine care for the child and the quality of the service. Maybe my expectations are high. I understand that cutting a 1-year-old's hair isn't easy, especially when they're crying and moving around. I don't expect a perfect haircut under those circumstances. But I do expect a salon that specializes in kids' haircuts to be better prepared for situations like this. At the end of the day, my biggest disappointment wasn't even the haircut itself. It was the lack of communication, engagement, and effort to make my daughter feel comfortable during what was supposed to be a special experience for her 1st haircut, especially when we paid extra for the "1st haircut" package. So you would think that a place upselling themselves on giving kids their 1st haircut, should PROBABLY know how to deal with kids getting their 1st haircut!! I don't know. Maybe I'm wrong. Based on our experience, I would definitely caution parents about bringing children under 2 here, especially if they're going through a "stranger danger" phase. Again, it's not the stylist's fault for my daughter crying. But you would expect more engagement and communication. Super disappointing. read more

Patiently waiting for our turn on a cut, and these folks decided to randomly take another walk in before our child. Frustrating because you can only manage a child's attention span for so long. How do you not execute on something this basic? We walked out and left. read more

Went in for a first haircut for an almost 3 year old. Mom was a bit anxious, but our stylist put her at ease and clearly explained how the photo that was shared was definitely more than a "trim". Mom decided to go with the shorter cut, after she was comfortable with how it was all explained. The result was a very handsome style that kept his curls looking amazing. Our stylist was quick and efficient which is important with a squirmy toddler. We paid extra for the first haircut package which was well worth it. Nivin was our stylist and was wonderful with our little guy! read more

I love bringing my 4 year old son here! Nivin has been our stylist lately and does a perfect job every time. She's also very sweet to talk with and so nice and attentive with my son. So happy to have this wonderful place so close to home! Also, the prize and lollipops are a hit :) read more

#740 Update: it's unfortunate that I keep receiving a false rebuttal, because I also have the text logs. I can understand not wanting a negative review, but you don't book a customer in one line and then write, "excuse me? There are no appointments for today." Then repeatedly argue with me online instead of over the phone. (Again, no one would answer the phone.) The customer service simply is no longer there. I try to be fair in my reviews, and you lost a customer of 6 years--and for what? Doesn't make any sense. If the shoe fits, wear it as they say and you certainly fulfilled that in your name. To recap: Your text support offered me the two appointments. I am well aware of your booking system. Offering the two appointments and taking them away in one text was tone deaf. Sorry but don't offer an appointment you can't keep. You can clearly see the text where she said the appointment "wasn't available". Also, my younger child was already in the system and I could not book the second appointment. Get your facts straight, and please be honest. I was a good client for 6 years. Either be straightforward with your clientele or hire better front end staff. I am even more disillusioned by your dishonest response! You ask for reviews after every single haircut, yet when I provide honest feedback you argue. Please don't ask for feedback if you can't handle the truth. Extremely disappointed to say the least. Original review: This place might have reopened but the service has gone from above average to terrible. I could only book one child online and when I tried to book two, that child who had now been going here for 6 years was out of the system and marked as "family" without any prior contact information. I tried to text them to add the second child and they gave me two time slots. Great! So when I accepted them they gave them to someone else, and acted as if they hadn't booked me. They told me that they didn't know our names and refused to answer the phone. It was as if I was having a text conversation with two different people at the same time. In the past they were hit and miss with being on time if you booked but this is a whole other level. Don't say I didn't warn you. Also, they will offer discounts here and there, but do everything in their power not to honor them. Sorta strange as I always tip at least 20 per cent (More than what is suggested by the actual shop). I would always recommend this place and go out of my way to go here, but with service this "krabby," I know it's time to move on! I am beginning to see why they changed their name, and I am not impressed. read more

Let me preface this review by saying I understand the importance of schedules, and I understand that we were late for our appointment. However, upon arrival, we received the iciest greeting I've ever received from a business that depends on customer service. Yes, we were late but I would expect some understanding or at least some general kindness from a company that caters to a young clientele that have trouble with attention span and take forever to put their clothes and shoes on. More about our greeting: without a smile, we were told that we were seven minutes late, told about the five minute grace period, barked at about their next available appointment, and then ignored for thirteen minutes. Lynne, who we made the appointment with after seeing her mentioned in other reviews, was the one being incredibly rude and cold. Nevin (I apologize if I misspelled your name) helped us reschedule our appointment. We could see how uncomfortable Lynne's interaction with our family made Nevin. She seemed embarrassed and maintained small talk with Lynne as she sat behind the counter. I could only describe Lynne's demeanor toward us as Krabby. Unfortunately ironic. Another family arrive late and received a kinder greeting as they rescheduled. Service: Lynne's next appointment arrived, and Lynne provided this child and father with a sweet and enthusiastic greeting. She attempted to cut this child's hair and seemed to have no experience on how to entertain or distract her young clientele. As an early childhood educator for over a decade, I cringed at her sad attempts to provide this child with adequate service. Shortly after Lynne accepted her client, Nevin bit the bullet and offered to provide us service. It seemed like Nevin was not comfortable making decisions while Lynne was next to her. The haircut turned out fine. I feel bad that my daughter was not acknowledged during our wait, which due to the awkwardness of Lynne's greeting, felt like forever, and I am positive we will not come back to this place. The place is brightly painted, nothing special, no fun seats, some iPads, no interactive toys while getting hair cuts. Tinsel is available but not all staff are able to do them, and while they take mere minutes, they did not offer to help each other do the service for my daughter. No pictures taken. We just wanted to get out of there, and we were not feeling joy at all. I can speculate about why we received an icy greeting, but I'd rather spend time recommending Tien and the friendly service and staff at Rainbow Kids salon in Imperial and Yorba Linda. While it is a bit pricier, the service did not leave me feeling weird and regretful for hours to come like the Krabby Comb. read more

We had a great experience here. They did a wonderful job with my daughter's haircut and were very patient with her throughout the appointment. I also appreciated that the salon felt thoughtful and kid-friendly without having a bunch of cheaply made toys for sale. Instead, they gave her a small surprise toy at the end, which made the experience feel special. We'll definitely be back. read more

This place is for children but they are very polite and professional. I would bring children here! They are attentive and respectful.

I took my baby for his very first haircut, and sadly, it wasn't the experience I was hoping for. First haircuts are such a big milestone, but the stylist barely interacted with him -- she only said "hi" when he looked directly at her, and otherwise stayed very dry and disengaged. It made the whole thing feel rushed and impersonal. As for the cut, it wasn't blended at all and honestly looked unfinished. For over $30, I expected more attention to detail -- at the very least, some effort to style his hair before sending us on our way. Instead, it was just snip, snip, done. I don't mind paying for quality, but when you're paying salon prices, you expect both skill and a welcoming experience, especially for a child's first haircut. Unfortunately, we didn't get either, and I left feeling disappointed rather than excited to show off his "first haircut" pictures. read more

It was our first time and we had a great experience. The staff was wonderful. They did a great job on my son Ayden's haircut. He was able to play an iPad while getting his haircut and received a prize at the end. He said he can't wait to go back. The whole store was decked out for kids. Thank you Krabby Comb staff. We highly recommend you and will definitely be back. read more

The experience was amazing. It was my son's first haircut ever and it couldn't have gone better. The lady was so patient with him and interacted with him the entire time. She even put on a Mickey mouse show to help distract my son from the haircut. He looked so handsome when finished. Will be coming back soon. Thank you Krabby Comb. read more

I have been taking my autistic son here for years. He has meltdowns because he hates clippers, but Lynn was so patient with him, I even saw him smile. They also offer 100% gaurantee. Haircuts are very stressful, but Krabby Comb's is a safe space for those who don't want to get stared at and judged. read more

Best haircuts for little ones!!! Friendly staff and kids love the cute free toy. (; Previously Snip Itz.

We had a great experience here! Royce was absolutely wonderful with my toddler. We've visited Rainbow Kids before, so we came in with high expectations--and this place definitely met them. Making an appointment was easy, the space was clean, the staff was friendly, and the service was quick. My toddler cried during his haircut, and the team was so understanding and efficient, which made the whole experience much less stressful. As a bonus, we found out Wednesdays currently have $5 off haircuts, which was a nice surprise. They had a sweet surprise after my son's cut. We'll definitely be back. read more
