At The Great Bear Cut in Pasadena, we know haircuts can feel stressful for some kids. The sound of clippers, the feel of scissors, or even sitting still can cause anxiety. In fact, these fears are more common than most parents realize. Children on the autism spectrum, kids with sensory sensitivities, or those who had tough experiences may struggle the most.

Our Commitment to Families

Here’s our promise: we work through the challenge with you. That’s why our stylists use patience, creativity, and teamwork. We take things step by step. Plus, we adjust to what your child needs in the moment. A haircut may take extra time, but we never rush.

A Safe and Supportive Experience

Above all, we focus on safety and trust. Our stylists use gentle techniques to reduce stress and create calm. Parents often tell us they feel relief knowing we don’t give up. This way, little by little, haircuts become easier. Over time, children build confidence and bravery.
