Kids and Hairstyles - What Do I Need to Know?

By Daniel Senu-oke and Kennedy Senu-Oke


There are certainly some differences between kids and adults when it comes to nearly anything that you can imagine. You've really got to keep this in mind when it comes down to how to handle children that are getting their hair done whether it's in a salon or at home. Kids are spontaneous and certainly don't really care what their hair looks like.. they play and get dirt in their hair and the last thing they are worried about is their hair. So unlike adults, this is a pretty large area of consideration to think about.

Now take one obvious note here that all kids have parents and kids are definitely a reflection of where they come from and even in their own individuality are still a reflection in some degree of their caretakers. Commonly most parents are in favor of short hair when it comes to their boys.
Short hair makes a kids hair pretty manageable and simplicity is usually the popular theme when you think about kids hair as well. Obviously this is because kids tend to lead very active lifestyles. Alternatively, for girls, the parents favor longer hair because the hair can be pulled back into ponytails and it's easier for the parent to style and of course, it's "more feminine".

Styles that are in fashion for girls are bobs (the perfect little hairstyle), braids, crimping (for your pre-teen girls) and highlights for teens. Of course there are just some processes that you should stay away from depending on the age of the child. One of the most basic things to stay away from is highlighting your child's hair too soon. Before puberty, you never know what the highlight is going to do or how it will react to the hair. After puberty the hair is more predictable in terms of how it will react to chemicals used in highlighting.

For boys, fades and spiky hair are definitely in fashion. Spikes are fun to work with and truly any length of a fade is always a good choice for your male child.

When you think of kids hair just be sure to find something that is always age appropriate and be mindful of the time that it takes to style and manage it considering how playful and energetic kids are and can be.
