Shear Madness “Haircuts for Kids”

Critical: ProfessionalismWhile the Erie County Health Department does not navigate the challenges you certainly have in maintaining a small business, however, the ECHD is primarily responsible for the prevention and control of infectious disease in the community. Therefore, I take stock in what they have to say especially when it comes to the safety of our children. Whether their recommendations and guidelines are “founded in science” or not, I do not seek my own council simply because statistics are not yet available. I’m happy to hear you adhere to strict sanitation procedures but the concerned mother in the previous post did not complain about that. It might be a best practice to seek the advice of qualified health physicians who encourage us to socially distance our young ones from unmasked adults. I will ALWAYS err on the side of caution, another best practice.While the Erie County Health Department does not navigate the challenges you certainly have in maintaining a small business, however, the ECHD is primarily responsible for the prevention and control of infectious disease in the community. …More

Critical: ProfessionalismFor an establishment that is catered to children, they aren’t doing their due diligence to keep our children safe during this pandemic, not in my opinion at least.During my daughter’s haircut the unmasked hairstylist asked to remove my daughter’s mask because it kept popping off. I APPRECIATED the honesty when she informed me that she wasn’t vaccinated. I chose to keep the mask on for my child’s safety. Things clearly got awkward after that. I chose to stay because my daughter kept her mask on and she was excited about the haircut and the highly anticipated ear piercing.Yes, there was lots of sanitizing happening when I was there, but I just can’t get over the fact that they would even think to put a child’s health at risk.JUST PUT ON A SHOW and at least PRETEND you care about their health at a CHILDREN’S HAIRCUTTING ESTABLISHMENT. Everyone knows this wave of the pandemic is hitting our vulnerable children. The only way children are protected right now is by wearing masks, social distancing, and hand washing. They don’t have the option right now to be vaccinated. It is our jobs as adults to keep them safe. Please don’t ask to remove their masks, if you do, make the hairstylist wear a mask. Something.I have read the owner’s responses to other negative reviews and all I see is defensiveness, perhaps just use this experience and learn from it and make empathetic changes for all different kinds of future clients.I won’t be returning, which is a shame because this could be a really fun experience for both parents and children.Service: HairstylingFor an establishment that is catered to children, they aren’t doing their due diligence to keep our children safe during this pandemic, not in my opinion at least. …More
