What makes a great kids haircut
A kids haircut is judged on the experience as much as the result. The barber works at the child's pace, explains the clippers before switching them on, and stops when a four-year-old needs a break.
Technically it is a full haircut - consultation, clipper and scissor work, a clean neckline - just done in shorter bursts and with a lot more talking.
Bring a reference photo. Kids are far better at pointing at a picture than describing what they want.
What to ask for
- Say whether it is a first haircut so the barber can pace it.
- Bring a photo of the cut your kid wants.
- Book earlier in the day when the shop is quieter and the chair is calmer.
Every four to six weeks for school-age kids.
Getting there from Berkley
From downtown Berkley at 12 Mile and Coolidge, take Coolidge south to 11 Mile, jog east to Woodward, then south to 9 Mile — about five minutes. Or run Woodward straight down from Vinsetta Garage. We're on the east side of Woodward at 9 Mile, across from Western Market.
There is no Detroit Barbers shop inside Berkley. The Ferndale shop is the closest one, and it is the chair Berkley clients book for a kids haircut. The shop runs Tuesday to Sunday and is closed Mondays. Weekday mornings right after opening are the quietest window for a walk-in; Saturdays fill first, so book ahead if the weekend is your only option.
