We teach our children that scissors are sharp and you shouldn't talk to strangers. It is inevitable that there is anxiety around this transition. 

Craig's barber shop is experienced in working with people with sensory processing disorder (SPD), autism, and other neuro-diverse conditions. They take the time to understand each client's individual needs and create a haircut that is comfortable and stylish.

Everyone deserves a haircut. We provide an environment which feels safe and inclusive enough for this to be a reality.

Craig's question to you...

When you take a child to get a haircut, what is your biggest fear? What can the hair professional do to ease this anxiety?

Craig is such a great person! I have 2 boys with big sensory issues, in particular around hair-cutting - what a great interview!
