"My 5 yr old, is terrified of hair cuts, and he's due"..HELP?

Well dont know how it happened..it takes 3 people to give him a haircut !! I just cry and cry..!



He's dad is going to do it this weekend !



Since his very first hair cut around 1 yrs, he is just the most pitiful thing, it would break your heart!



We try to just do it every 3 mo. or so.



Ive tried the mall , some specialize in kids cuts, have special vices, airplane seats and all.Didnt work.



He has never liked any loud, buzzing sound.



Just little things like when he was a baby, he would hide under the bed, when he was watching the Pink Panther cartoon, cause he was using an electric tooth brush Even when Dad cuts his mustache he runs in panic, cause its like the clippers.



Also every time i vacum i have to put him and some toys on his top bunk...its really sad !



So back to the hair cut.."any ideas?

alllll of my litte brothers are scared of hair cuts too.



even when i jsut use scissors. i watched my brother cry and cry for his first hair cut. but after that he was fine.



is he only scared of load nosies? then jsut use scissors.



Do his hair yourself, or have his dad do it. Have a movie playing, give him a lollipop ( of anything else on a stick that he enjoys) and constantly talk to him during the hair cut, ask him questions. keep his mind off the hair cut.



sometimes you just have get through it the first time and then they'll get over it.



good luck, feel better =]

dont use trimmers if he's afraid of them



just use scissors and trim his hair



why keep it buzzed anyway

Hmm. It sounds like he doesn't like the noise. Put headphones on him! That's what I do when we run the vaccum. Then she doesn't hear the vaccum. It might work with the haircut. But if that dont work, then cut alittle of your hair to show him the Mommi and Daddi do it. Then brib him with a treat.



I hope these work =)

My daughter hated getting her hair cut when she was little.I would sit in the chair and let her sit in my lap.That way you can hold her arms.It can be a little messy but it always made her feel more secure.Maybe earplugs for the noise?You could wear them also.My daughter grew out of her fear.Hopefully he will too.Good luck.

When I took my 1 1/2 year old son to get his hair cut, we took him to a place called Clippers for Kids. They were excellent there. Try to do away with the clippers. Most clippers do scare children. Have them sit in front of a TV watching their favorite show, have them play a video game. Have him take control of the clippers to show him that they are harmless. Have dad give him his mustache trimmer (if he has one), to show him that it is harmless as well. Once the child gets use to the item and knows its not going to harm him, he should lighten up a little bit and make things much easier for you and the hair dresser! Good luck!!

get him a cartoon toothbrush that has batteries and makes noises and vibrates. Let him play with it and let him see it doesnt hurt. Then show him the clippers in a non haircutting situation, just to show him how it doesnt hurt. use it on his arm or somewhere. or take him and one of his buddies together and let the buddy get his hair done first (of course make sure it is someone he truly likes, and someone who isn't afraid of the clippers). Then he will see it is ok. I had a 5 year old boy in my daycare who had a disability and was afraid of loud noises and these are the things I did before I took him for his hair cut.

I don't know your Son but, I too hated the 'buzzers' when I was a kid..............AND MY BEST UNCLE WAS 'THE' BARBER!! I was better when he only used the Scissors.



I'd say for now stick to the Scissor cutting only..........Have you ever tried taking him to a Barber where kids go...let him watch them...criers or not.... Let him see it really isn't all that bad!
