More information

What's Included

A focused appointment that covers the essentials with attention to detail.

  • Quick consultation on style goals, school guidelines and hair type.
  • Precision scissor and clipper work tailored to the look.
  • Shape, taper and texture adjusted to growth patterns and cowlicks.
  • Tidy dry and natural finish with light, age-appropriate product.
  • Fringe, neckline and sideburns refined for a clean result.
  • Simple styling tips and when to book the next trim.

Who It's For

Boys aged 10 to 16 who want a sharp, manageable haircut that feels natural and looks right in any setting. Ideal for classic short back and sides, taper or skin-tight fades, textured crops, mid-length layers and longer looks that need control without bulk.

Also suited to parents who value a calm approach, clear guidance and consistent results their son can maintain at home.

Duration & Appointment Timing

This service is booked for 30 minutes, covering consultation, precise cutting and a tidy dry and style. Please arrive on time with clean, dry hair and minimal product. If you are planning a major restyle from longer to short, consider booking extra time so we can refine every detail.

Aftercare & Maintenance

Use a small amount of matte paste or light cream on dry or slightly damp hair for control without shine. Blow-dry or brush into place if needed, keeping heat low. Most styles stay sharp with a trim every 4 to 6 weeks; very short fades may suit 3 to 4 weeks. Rinse after sport and avoid heavy waxes that weigh the hair down.

Frequently Asked Questions

What styles suit ages 10 to 16?
We create classic and modern looks, from taper and low fades to textured crops and longer layers. The aim is a clean, natural finish that fits school rules and daily routine.
Can you work with curly, thick or difficult hair?
Yes. We adjust technique to growth patterns and texture, using scissor work, clipper control and light texturising as needed. We also show simple ways to style it at home.
Do I need to stay with my child during the haircut?
A parent or guardian is welcome to stay for under 16s. We keep the consultation straightforward so everyone is clear on the style and finish.
How should we prepare for the appointment?
Arrive with clean, dry hair and minimal product. Bring any photo references or school guidelines if you have them, and let us know about any cowlicks or previous issues.
How often should we book to keep it tidy?
Most cuts look their best with a trim every 4 to 6 weeks. Shorter fades may benefit from 3 to 4 weeks. We will recommend a schedule that suits hair growth and lifestyle.
