Wanted: Hairdresser for mixed hair (preschooler)


Recommended Posts

The time has come for my preschooler's hair to have a bit of a trim. She has beautiful mixed hair with very tight curls and it is more Afro than European. She has had plaits done in Peckham at Afro hairdressers before but I am not certain where to take her to have her hair trimmed a bit. I would be grateful if anyone has a hairdresser they might be able to recommend - ideally one who has experience with children (although she is very patient when she has her hair plaited so should be fine either way).

There is a place called Yahweh on Whately Road that does children / mixed race kids as well as adults. They might blow dry her hair straight to trim it (a lot of hairdressers do, even if they specialise in curly hair). It easy to damage curly hair with heat, which can permanently change the shape and size of the curls so if you don't want to risk it, just be clear about that and be very firm.


If its already in a shape that you like, you might be able to trim it yourself. If you put her hair in smallish twists (maybe twenty) you can then just trim off the ends of each twist as needed and then unravel them.


Good luck!

    • Another great encounter with Aria. A leaking toilet was fixed quickly and cleanly and for a reasonable price. Aria’s always going to be our first call for plumbing work, and he knows a lot of good local people for their types of jobs.
