Sharkey’s Cuts for Kids

Sidney did a terrible job on my son’s hair. It is uneven and nothing like what I requested. I tried to point out what I wanted different and she just messed it up more. Then she loaded a ton of gel in his hair. It just looked absolutely terrible. Even friends are commenting on how uneven the cut is. 2 stars because the place is fun, and the employees were nice, but they definitely need to hire good stylists. I would only return if I wanted an easy buzz cut. Not worth the money to just go somewhere else to get it fixed.

My son loves this place. He used to be so scared of haircuts but they really have a lot of things here to keep children busy. They have a PlayStation, and DVDs. The first time here, the lady that cut my son’s hair looked uncomfortable with a one year old with trimmer anxiety issues. The sound of that trimmer is no doubt a little scary for some babies. She accidentally cut my son’s ear. I was weary to come back, but my son likes everything about this place. He enjoyed the little police car he gets to sit in, so I decided to try again. The other hairdressers have been ok, but I finally found someone my son is very comfortable with, Sidney. She really has a way with kids, I think. My son likes chit chatting with her. The price is a little steep for a haircut, but definitely worth it with all the things they have that can keep a crying baby/​toddler busy. Lol

When i walked in i did not know what i was getting becauee i never seen such a great place for kids to get a haircut. I was very pleased with the staff and how they treat the kids and parents! I will definately comw back 5+ stars! They have xbox, cars that they sit in! Shoot i almost wanted to jump in the cop car!

Love the attention here with Marisol. We come from summerlin and its worth it. Games, balloons, if this place serve alcoholic beverages, I would make appointments for haircuts here myself. My daughter wanted a pretend haircut because it looked so fun and they were more than happy to accommodate. Well done!

Marisol is absolutely «THE BEST», there is nowhere else I will ever bring my son, she is a master at her craft. She is great with my kid, its a perfect cut everytime time and it’s worth every penny.

True, the hair cuts are hit or miss here. Whenever we get cuts, it really depends on the stylist. I have 3 sons who all get the same haircut. I give the same instructions for all 3 and they usually come back with 3 similar, but distinctly different haircuts. They usually put a pomade in their hair to flatten it all down so it looks smooth. The next day I can see all of the uneven bits that I have to go back and fix.
BUT! We do keep coming back! Why? They can schedule all 3 of my boys at once which cuts down on how much time we have to devote to the task; and, my kids love it! My 2, 4 & 6 year olds all love this place. They are excited to get haircuts. No more crying in the chair or freaking out. They pick their DVD or video game, sit in the car chair or fancy «big boy» seat and get a trim. They leave with a balloon, lolli pop and a smile! Do I spend $ 75 (after tip) to get their haircut? Yes. That is why I wait so long between cuts. Do they do a spectacular job on their hair? No. But, they look presentable and its tear free, so we will keep returning to Sharkeys.
My one real complaint: Im unhappy with the recent policy change of earning a free cut. It used to be the 10^th cut is free. So every 4^th visit, I would get a free hair cut for somebody. Cool. Now, its every 10^th haircut per kid. So, we have to go 10x before we get the free cuts. They don’t get their hair cut every month. It will be years before I earn a free hair cut. Not a real draw.

First off their hours are not good. Anyone knows that with young kids, by 10:30 you’ve had half of your day done. Second, they can NEVER get my kid in. I walked in and there were literally 3 people standing there yet they couldn’t give her a quick trim?! If they just stop taking then they could throw her in the chair for a quick trim. We ended up going to the Village Barber shop around the corner and the woman did a great job.

I’ve been bringing my 5 year old to this place for about 2 years and today, was the first time we brought our 1.5 year old. The personalized caring service that Marisol and the gentleman behind the counter provide is top notch. Our kids look forward to riding the cars, watching movies and playing games while getting their hair cuts and we love bringing them in. Thank you for having this awesome place for the kids’ and parents peace of mind!

We had been going here for years! Kendra was amazing, but after she and Holly (receptionist) left, it was no longer the same. Both of my sons were rescheduled to a new stylist, the week before Christmas pictures they buzzed off my sons hair after explicit directions in the computer and from me to cut his hair as follows 1.5 to a 2 and a trim on the top!
Please beware — and choose your stylist carefully if you decide to go here!
My sons hair is finally growing out, but hats had to be warm in Christmas pictures this year!

Don’t go there. We called ahead made 2 appointments for our kids waited 20 min after our time. They let people with out a appointment go ahead.

Usually we love this place, but on this time we had to take an evening appointment for our boys (we have always gone during the day before) and the night staff is awful! Well, at least the two we got were. My youngest son got an older blonde woman and she had the worst attitude as I tried to explain what we had done to his hair last time (there were no notes on him for some reason) she was so rude another stylist tried to intervene but backed off before things got unprofessional. This woman started the haircut clearly in a tiff and ended up cutting my two year old’s ear! At least she slowed down after that, but sheesh! We brought in a picture of what we wanted for my older son (age 4) and specifically said we wanted it kept long on top (it was already really grown out-​we even provided a picture). Well, he now looks like Frankenstein! Half his darn forehead is showing! At least this girl was sweet, but I will never go back in the evening again! Ugh! So disappointed! I’ve included photos of the before/​after and the example photo we showed her… at least it will grow back right?

Took my son for his first day of school hair cut. The person cutting his hair messed it up completely after seeing a photo of how we normally cut it. It was uneven and much shorter. I was told to email the manager. Twice. They never contacted me back at all. I contacted Corp they also didn’t email back. Terrible customer service and hair cuts could be great but they could also but completely terrible depends on who you get. I’m no longer going there. This happened for first day of school and I can finally go get it fixed now because of how short it was in certain areas.

This place is really clean and the staff is super friendly. My 1 year old son usually cries for the first half of his haircut and the staff is very patient with him. Teresa is gentle and does a great job!

This place is great! My son absolutely loves getting his hair cut and that is worth their high prices. How many 2 year olds sit perfectly still and are thrilled to get a haircut?
I have to say this place grew on me at first I felt it was very over price for children’s hair cut and was more of a novelty. But after a few home cuts gone… Let’s say not as well as they could have, I came to truly appreciate the experience sharky’s gives my son. You can buy a year pass that makes it more affordable if you are commented to getting your kids hair cut on a regular bases or use their punch card.
We have not gotten a bad cut there yet!
If you have multiple children or kids who wreck small spaces like mine, make an appointment and get there right on time. The waiting area is small.

They specialized with kid’s hair cut. Totally satisfied with my son’s haircut. They have balloons and lollipop for kids. Movies and games to keep them entertained.

We come here all the time for our three kids. My oldest two really don’t have a preference for who does their haircut, but our two-​year-​old seems to do best with Rachel. She is super kid friendly and fast, and we will request her for his haircuts from now on. It’s best to make an appointment (especially on the weekends), but they do accommodate walkins.

Love getting my lil boy hair cut here. Marisol is the best. Great with kids and cuts.

My husband and I took our 2.5 yr old daughter for her first haircut and we loved it! Our hair stylists name was Precious and she was very patient and great with our daughter. We got the first haircut package and she left with a photo, a certificate, her locks of hair, and a ballon and lollipop. She left a happy camper. Definitely recommend this place.

Everyone here is so wonderful. Appointments are preferred however they never turn away walk-in’s. They are all great with the kids and their fast. This is the only place for a great quick cut for kids of any age.

Nothing for kids to play with while they wait!
I don’t understand how this place has so many stars. I came in with my 2 year old with an appt at 4:40…the place was busy and I could see I would have to wait… that was fine but there was nothing for kids to play with while they are waiting… no books, toys or anything. So while I try to keep my squirmy child waiting, none of the staff acknowledge me, reassure me that I will be served soon. After 10 minutes, which to a 2 year old might as well be 1 hour, and no acknowledgment from the staff my son got increasingly more riled up… i had to leave. The staff could care less… and when I complained their attitude was «fine, leave». For $ 18.95…you need a little more than a DVD player and one of those cars… how about a more attentive attitude and a waiting area appropriate for a young child.
