Child's Haircut - Boys, Long Hair (12 & Under)
A haircut for boys 12 and under with longer hair - shape and weight, not clippers.
Longer hair on a child needs different handling: the goal is usually to keep the length while stopping it from turning heavy, tangled or shapeless at the ends.
This is scissor work rather than clipper work, done at a pace the child can sit through.
Growing hair out is a stage with an awkward middle, and the way it is cut through that stage decides whether it looks deliberate or neglected. Your stylist will explain what the next few months will look like before anything is cut, so the plan is agreed rather than discovered later.
Who this is for
- Boys 12 and under with hair past the ears or longer.
- Children growing their hair out who still need the ends managed.
- Families who want length kept and bulk reduced.

What the appointment looks like
A conversation about how much length is coming off - agreed with you before the first cut.
Detangling and a gentle wash if your child is comfortable with it.
Layering or weight removal where the hair is piling up, then a dry check.
Pricing and appointment length are set by each stylist individually and confirmed with you directly at booking.
How to prepare, and what comes after
- Detangle before you come; it makes the appointment much shorter and calmer.
- A leave-in conditioner at home makes brushing easier between visits.
- Say if the hair gets tied back daily - it changes where the weight should sit.
How oftenLonger children's hair usually needs the ends revisited before the overall length does.
