I’m a little slow on the uptake with this one but I really wanted to be able to include photos of the new location and just could never remember to bring my camera, but I was determined to update my previous post about Haircuts for Peanuts.
In case you missed my previous post, Haircuts for Peanuts specializes in haircuts for children, and the occasional adult. Although they prefer to only do childrens hair I like to get my hair cut there too because my kids can play in the waiting room while I get my haircut and I don’t have to worry about what they are getting into.
I found Haircuts for Peanuts about 3-4 yrs ago after trying to get the kids hair cut at Supercuts(that didn’t work so well) I will never go back. My girls just love Ms. Aprile and get very excited about going to get their haircut. The experience starts in the waiting room which is bright and colorful with huge murals on the walls, and of course filled with toys for the kids. They even have a TV with game system for older kids. Also they have a popcorn machine for the kids.
They have 4 different stylists that are specially trained to deal with children. All of their hair stylists are trained by licensed speech and occupational therapists and are very familiar with the techniques in dealing with children with special needs For example, they have toys used especially for autistic children at each hair station and they have learned special techniques for calming children down when they get upset.
They have different rooms to have your hair cut, each decorated in a different theme and has TVs so your kids are completely distracted from what is going on. The cuts are quick and cute. Girls can have ribbons put in their hair for free if they like. And each child gets a quarter to pick a treat from the vending machine after their haircut, and a free balloon. For us, we make it part of our day, we are in no hurry so we can stay and play in the waiting room after we finish. The kids just love it there.
Their new location is in Perinton Square Mall 6720 PITTSFORD-PALMYRA RD., FAIRPORT, NY 14450 
They are open Monday through Friday: 9am to 7pm
Saturday – Sunday: 9am to 4pm
They have cut as young as 3 weeks old on up. Haircuts cost $15, and they can wash hair which is an additional $7 and needs to be requested when making your appointment. Walk ins are welcome but appointments are preferred.
One way to save money is with their Haircuts Club card. It costs $150 it lets you get 12 haircuts for the price of 10! To purchase this card you have to pay cash so come prepared. For individual haircuts you can charge it but they do prefer cash or check.
