Haircuts Kids Love, Care Parents Trust

Who We Are
We Love Seeing Your Child Shine, Just as You Do!
At the Great Bear Cut in Pasadena, we specialize in kids’ haircuts that are as joyful as they are stylish. That’s why every visit is fun and comfortable. In fact, with 36 years of experience, our friendly stylists know how to help each child feel relaxed — from their very first snip to their boldest new look. 
And best of all, we tailor every cut to the child, because that means families can count on us for fresh styles, confidence, and great memories. 
Picture-Perfect Hair for Life’s Big Moments
From birthdays to school photos, weddings to family portraits — we make sure your child’s hair is styled to shine. This way, parents can focus on enjoying the occasion instead of worrying about hair mishaps. In addition, our patient, detail-focused stylists create looks that last all day, so your special event is remembered for smiles, not stress.

Styles as Unique as Your Child
From sleek trims to playful braids, we bring out the best in every child’s hair — with care, skill, and a smile. And best of all, every style is tailored to your child’s unique personality. In fact, our stylists know how to combine patience and creativity to make the process enjoyable. As a result, kids leave not only looking great but also feeling confident and proud.

First Haircut Package
For babies and toddlers, a first haircut is more than just a trim — it’s a milestone worth celebrating. That’s why we make their very first haircut a moment to remember with a keepsake certificate, photo, and gentle, patient care. In addition, our stylists create a calm and welcoming environment, so both parents and little ones can enjoy the experience together.
Kids Haircut, Braids & Styles
From quick trims to creative braids and trendy styles, we make every haircut fun and confidence-boosting. In fact, our stylists bring patience, skill, and a playful touch so kids leave smiling and ready to show off their new look. And best of all, each style is designed to last through busy school days or special celebrations. As a result, parents can relax knowing their child looks great long after leaving the chair.
Parents Cuts
After mastering amazing haircuts on our youngest, wiggliest clients, cutting grown-up hair is a walk in the park. That’s why our stylists bring the same skill, precision, and care to parents — so you can relax and leave looking your best. In addition, we make sure every parent enjoys the same welcoming atmosphere their kids do. As a result, families can book together and leave the salon looking fresh, confident, and happy.
Sensory-Challenged — Committed to Every Cut
Some haircuts take extra patience, flexibility, and persistence — and that’s where we shine. Are you committed to the struggle? If so, we’re right there with you. That’s why we work with you to find the approach that works best for your child, and we simply don’t give up. In the end, no matter how wiggly, restless, or resistant, we’ll get the haircut done so everyone walks out fresh.
Happy Faces, Happy Stories
From first haircuts to sharp fades, stylish tapers, and tricky trims, our clients leave with big smiles and fresh styles. In fact, many families tell us they look forward to every visit. That’s why their stories mean so much to us. And now, here’s just a sample of what parents are saying about their Great Bear Cut experience:

I was nervous about getting my son’s first fade, but the team here nailed it. Sharp lines, perfect blend, and they were so patient with him even when he wouldn’t sit still. We’ll be driving from Glendale every time now!
— Marissa L., Glendale

My daughter wanted braids for her birthday photos, and they came out better than we imagined. They even stayed neat after a full day of running around at the park. Highly recommend for any special occasion!
— David R., South Pasadena

They made my hair look awesome! I got a cool doo like my big brother and everyone at school said it looks so good.
— Ethan, Age 9, Altadena
