Half Up, Half Down Ponytail!
This is the cutest and easiest hairstyle for summer. This is great look for long or short hairstyles. You can achieve this look by pulling the top portion of the hair into a ponytail while the bottom is left loose. Or for a different spin instead of a ponytail, secure the hair with bobbie pins. This is a great look for little girls, girls with one length hairstyles, or girls that are trying to grow out bangs. When you come into Cookie Cutters Haircuts For Kids your stylist can show you how to do this hairstyle.
Want a new look for your daughters long hairstyles?
Try adding long layers!
Long layers are great for long hairstyles and even some short haircuts. Long layers add body to fine hair, thin out thick hair, and help eliminate tangles, especially during the summer, when it is harder to comb through one length hair. If your daughters hair is wavy or somewhat curly the curls can be weighed down by one length hair. Putting a long layer in the back will take some of the weight off and make the curl bounce back. This will also eliminate any fuzziness in the back of the hair. So ask your stylist at Cookie Cutters Haircuts For Kids if this style is recommended for your daughter.

All of our stylist are well trained to deal with nervous or scared children. Many children do good for their first haircut but the closer they get to age two the more likely it is they will not always be willing to sit down. Either the child is afraid of getting their haircut or they just do not like sitting for any length of time.
Just remember your child will not be the first to cry. Do not be embarrassed. There are some days at Cookie Cutters where it seems like no child wants their haircut and we do not mind working with the child through the experience.

At Cookie Cutters we are prepared for children that have the wiggles or can't stop crying. We have televisions at all stations and will try to find their favorite program. We also have bubbles to play with while they get their hair cut. These things usually work at distracting and calming the child, but even if these distractions don't work we will get the haircuts done with your help.
Don't forget to come prepared. It is a good idea to bring toys or snacks for your child. Crackers, cereal, suckers, fruit snacks seem to work great. This will keep your child occupied and keep their mind off of what the stylist is doing.
It is a great idea to bring an extra shirt for your child. Most children do not like to keep the cape on while they get their haircut. If they do keep the cape on they can still feel itchy after the haircut and this can make their experience even less enjoyable.
After the haircut your child can get their balloon and go on the slide where all of their worries will disappear!

Have you been wanting your child to grow out a certain hairstyle or part of their hair? If so summer is a great time to begin!
If your daughter has bangs, but has been looking at girl hair styles that have longer or no bangs this is a great opportunity to begin working your way to the new hairstyle. It does take a lot of patience to grow bangs out. It seems to be easier in the summer so you don't have to worry about her not being able to see the chalk board.
A great thing to use when growing out a style is headbands. Headbands seem to work a lot better than hair barrettes. Hair barrettes fall out easier and your child usually can't put them in by themselves. Another tip when growing out a hair style is to keep your child's hair parted on either side never down the middle. This also makes it much easier to keep the bangs out of their eyes.
If you need help deciding what hairstyle will work best for your daughter stop by your local Cookie Cutters, Haircuts For Kids salon and ask one of our stylist for suggestions. Also, if you have pictures of kids hairstyles you like bring them with you to help show your stylist the hairstyle you are working toward.

Remember, it is easier to prevent chlorine build up than is to get ride of it, so follow these recommendations before diving into the water.
- Before your child hits the water be sure to spray down their hair with Circle of Friends Pre-Swim conditioner. This will coat the hair and block the chlorine from being absorbed.
- Always shampoo hair after swimming with our Circle of Friends Swimmers shampoo. This will remove any chlorine in the hair.

To buzz or not to buzz
If your son plays a lot of sports, sweats a lot, has thick hair, or just does not like to comb his hair then a buzz cut hairstyle is the answer.
There are still many style choices even with short hairstyles.
It can be buzzed the same length on the sides and back as it is on top. It can be faded shorter on the sides and back and left longer on top. You can choose to buzz all off the bang area or leave some bangs to spike up or comb straight down. The bangs can be cut short with scissors so that they blend in, this keeps you from getting the buzzed off look and is still maintenance free.
Once you decide on short haircuts for the summer, you will wish you had done it a long time ago.

Don't be afraid this is not a burr haircut. The clippers are used on the sides, back, and even the crown just short enough so the hair can not stick up. What makes this boys hair cut different from a burr is that clippers are not used on top. Scissors are used to blend the top in.
This short hairstyle can be worn combed straight down for a maintenance free summer haircut, worn spiky all over or with spiky bangs.
