Monica was amazing, and far exceeded my expectations. Ive been cutting my sons hair at home because I assumed he would melt down at a salon. Monica took her time, played with him, made him feel comfortable, and got him in the chair no problem! By the end of the haircut you would think haircuts were his favorite thing (and they just may be). I have already recommended to all my friends, and will continue to do so!
Brought my son in for his first haircut at 2 years old and Monica was amazing at making him feel comfortable in a new place. You can tell shes spent a lot of time around children and she new what was developmentally appropriate/courteous for a two-year-old. She also provided some hair care tips for young ones, lice, cradle cap, etc.All in all I had the same feeling Ive had around spectacular teachers or pediatricians - making experiences out of the normal routine a learning experience and even a fun trip!And his hair turned out adorable!!!
I brought my daughter here for her first haircut and Monica was wonderful! She took her time to get my daughter feeling comfortable, gave her a wonderful haircut, put a braid in her hair, and saved a lock of her hair for us, tied with a ribbon, and labeled with her name and the date. She even had different colors of ribbon and let my daughter choose which color she wanted. I love that she charges the same rate regardless of how much time you need to book for your child (e.g. extra time for a 1st haircut, sensory issues, etc.), gives a discount for bringing in plastic bags to recycle, and makes it clear on the website that she offers an accepting and affirming space for families. This world needs more people like her.
I took my 1 year there for his first hair cut, and actually it was my first time bringing any of my kids in to get a haircut. And I have nothing but good things to say about this busniess and Monica. She was very friendly and so easy going, it made it so nice and comfortable for both me and my son. I will definitely be going back and becoming a regular with all of my kids! 😊
I absolutely love Monica she does an amazing job on the kids hair. My son is bi racial with curly hair and she hooked him up. My only small complaint isshe books out u have to schedule ahead and sometimes that is hard to for me. I just wish u could at least get in within a week. Thats is just because she is so.good many moms go.to her!! She is good about keeping the child calm too. She is awesome. just make sure u book a few weeks ahead ..
She was so awesome! The way she talks to the kids before my daughter was amazing. She takes her time& it takes a lot of patience. My daughter is so happy with her haircut.Thank you Monica!
Monica was incredibly patient with our twins’ first haircuts. She was amazing with our kids! Take your child to see her for a haircut-she’s the best!
Monica was so friendly and personable. She did a great job at meeting my toddler at her level, helping her feel comfortable and excited, and also gave me lots of information regarding her hair/scalp care. I love that the haircut is one on one (aka just one appointment at a time)! She went above and beyond what was expected and I highly recommend!
Monica did my 18 month olds first haircut, and very quickly made friends with a kiddo who can be a little shy when meeting new people. Plus, his hair looks great!Also super impressed listening to her talk to the child before us, who was probably about 7? Did a great job keeping him talking, and informing him about everything she was going to do before she did it! She had him give consent before every step of the process.Highly recommend!
We took our little guy (20 months) here to get his first haircut. He’s still in the stranger-danger phase, and Monica took the time to get him comfortable with both her and the environment before trying to give the cut. We were super impressed, and she eased all our worries. The cut went great, and we will definitely be going back!
Monica was great with my almost 2 year old. He didnt like the haircut, but she was professional and calm throught and gave him a great cut in no time! My shy little boy even gave her a high five.on the way out. She is great!
Took my son here for his first hair cut and omg..she is the BEST!!! Took her time, got him comfortable and went to work. I cant believe how awesome she was....wont take him anywhere else!
Monica is absolute pro with little kids! She delivers professionalism and great cuts. Highly recommend.
Monica is wonderful with kids! My two year old son was in need of his first haircut and I couldn’t have been more pleased. She made him feel welcome and comfortable before even sitting him in her chair. We will be coming back again and again!
Monica was amazing!! She was super friendly and did amazing with my 1.5 year old! we will be back again! Thank you so much Monica!
We Love 💕 Monica! Our twins (now 3 yrs old) have been terrified of having their hair cut since the first time at another place.Yesterday, they were screaming and sobbing in the car, scared to even leave the car. I finally got them in the door and they both decided no-go again and cried. Monica started reading a book to them... Next thing you know they are taking off their coats, hats, mittens, AND BOOTS! 🥾 Well, at the end of our visit we have the best haircuts and gorgeous smiles! We cant thank you enough, Monica! 🥰
Monica is great with kids. I have a 6, 4, and 2 year old. My boys used to cry when they would get haircuts, but now look forward to their appointments. My oldest doesnt like certain textures and sounds and she made him feel at ease. She is very patient with them and explains what she is going to do next. She always does a quick style for my daughter that she loves. They feel comfortable, actually sit still, and leave with great hair cuts. Wins all around!
I have 2 kids with naturally curly hair, and Monica did wonders cutting their hair! She not only cut their hair, but she gave great tips on how to handle the hair, moisturize and style it while making it look super cute! She is so friendly and talked with the kids. We had a great experience and will definitely be going back!
WOW! Monica not only provided a great haircut for my boys but was extremely patient with them as well. I would highly recommend anyone who is looking for a high quality haircut and works well with all children. We will be going back again soon.
We took out son to Dandy Lion for his first haircut and he loved it! The cut was exactly what we were looking for, and it was so fast and stress free. Monica is a master at her craft. Every child should get their hair cut at Dandy Lion!
She is absolutely amazing with kids and so knowledgeable!We loved using her for her services and will continue to go back!She is awesome!
Monica was wonderful for my sons first haircut she gavr me a lesson on cradle cap and his curls that i will definitely put into consideration since i I definitely dont wanna lose his curls. Plus paid attention to his older brothers!
Fabulous. Did not feel rushed. So personable!
Monica was Fantastic! Shes was Great with our 2 year old Granddaughter, whom tends to be very hyper active! She even styled our Granddaughters hair! Thankyou Miss Monica!! We WILL be back!!
Monica is amazing. She is very patient with my child who has trouble sitting still. I love that she knows exactly how to cut their hair without me having to remember clipper numbers.
Monica did our 1.5 Year olds first haircut. It turned out great and she did a wonderful job of interacting with our son, keeping him calm and entertained.
Weve had the best experiences with Monica at Dandy Lion Cuts for Kids! She treats our kids like real people, engages in conversations, and asks what they want. She is so patient and understanding, and our children love going to see her. Bonus - she just gave our curly-haired nine-year-old the best haircut ever! I would recommend Monica and Dandy Lion to anyone and everyone.
Very good with my youngest son. I usually take him in on Saturday to get a haircut. Normally a week out on Saturday appointments.
Defintly will be comen back for every one of ajs Haircuts
Awesome experience for my daughters first haircut! Highly recommend!
Monica is great with the kids and makes getting haircuts easy with no tears!
We had a great experience! Monica was amazing with our 2.5 year old and tamed her crazy curly hair!
Monica is absolutely fantastic! I’ve been bringing my very active 2 year old son to her for almost a year now and will not take him anywhere else (I’ve already made that mistake once) she does not miss a beat! She is so friendly and makes the kids feel right at home! So professional and such a fun lady!
I brought my little guy (under 2) to Monica, and she was absolutely fantastic with him!!! Highly recommend!
Couldnt have picked a better place to bring the little one to get his first cut! Definitely recommend! It was such a stress free experience for me and my little one was so distracted with Monicas creative conversations he was done in no time!
Monica was fantastic! She is patient, knowledgeable about kids, takes the time to make them comfortable and makes it fun along the way. Highly recommend!
My daughter is scared of any one new touching her. She let Monica cut her hair twice now! Monica is super friendly and actually listens! We wont be going anywhere else for my kids cuts while she is open!
The whole experience was great, from the moment we walked through the door! Monica was awesome with my son, and he did not want to leave.
I took my daughter to Monica for her first haircut today! Monica definitely knew what she was doing and knew how to keep my daughter distracted so she wasn’t scared.My daughters hair is adorable and we will definitely be repeat customers!
Monica is simply fantastic! Couldn’t ask for a better haircut or a better person to give a haircut.
Did an amazing job on my sons first hair cut
Monica was amazing for my toddlers first haircut, and he HATED his head bring touched. She was kind, professional, patient, and most importantly, funny!! Loved the cut too of course!
Love this salon for my kiddos. Monica is incredible with kids of all ages. She magically gets the baby to sit still for his monthly buzz and my big girl LOVES her pixie cut. Would absolutely recommend!
Haircuts are torture for my 4 year old. He jumps from the chair, pulls off the cape, and squirms all over. This stylist has a child sized chair (with seatbelt 🙌) and a talent for children. She was so patient and helped him stay calm and still. Easily the straightest cut hes ever gotten!! ❤
The experience was great! Monica was very patient with my son and did a great job! My son especially loved the toy at the end as a treat! Well definitely be coming back!
My son (3 years old) hates getting his hair cut. Monica did such an awesome job of making him feel comfortable and explaining what she would be doing next. He loved the whole experience and even smiled and giggled throughout. I highly recommend Dandy Lion Cuts if you have a little one who is nervous about getting a hair cut.
Fast, easy process!
Monica was very nice and kind she did a great job giving my son his first hair cut.I would highly recommend Dandy lion cuts for kids.
Dandy Lion is a super cute salon for kids. Monica is excellent with children and does a terrific job on hair. I highly recommend this place And loved that she takes all ages of children.
Very please with the service and quality of the haircuts here! She does a great job with our little one! We wont go anywhere else!
Just brought my two boys in for a haircut, she did a wonderful job and even managed to get my two year old to sit still! Definitely recommend!
Monica does a great job relating to the kids and getting the kids to be comfortable. It is a great experience!
She did a great job with son. She was friendly, quick, and knowledgable!
