Find An Affordable Kid's Haircut

We know everyone likes a good deal, so we decided to find five great deals for families each week. This week we're focusing on places where kids can get their hair cut without breaking the piggy bank.

Children grow fast, and so does their hair!

Locally, a children’s haircut at a specialty kids’ salon usually runs upwards of $20, but there are a few places where you can clip those locks and save a few bucks.

Extra savings tip:

Always ask the salon if they are running a promotion, or have a current coupon available. Keep an eye on the local coupon books and circulars because additional coupons do appear from time to time. You can also try the company websites, and coupon sites like www.retailmenot.com to check for current printable coupons. In some cases, some salons will also offer extra deals via Facebook and Twitter.

If you know about a great deal for families, let us know. Please email Kirsten.E.Branch@gmail.com and/or post it in the comments below.
