Where to get a child's haircut that doesn't cost the earth?


Recommended Posts

Have you though about doing it yourself? After paying ?10 like a fool for the lady at Little Clippers to spend 2 minutes lunging at my 7-month-old (he has a lot of hair!) with scissors only to result in a terrible cut, I decided I couldn't do a worse job myself. I've done it twice now and it was easy and he looks great.

We go to the barber/hairdresser beside the post office on Forest Hill Road (near the Co-Op, at the end of Dunstans). It was ?11 for my son but she spent ages cutting and layering (he has loads of very thick, straight hair) and did a great job.


We had a serious mullet-tastic experience at Jazz on Lordship Lane but I think that was probably because of my bad instructions!

Hello,


Rang GMs for an appointment for tomorrow, they said ?10 for my 3yo boy and ?14 for my 5yo girl...!


Can anyone help - what's the name of the other hairdresser on Melbourne Grove, the one opposite the ice cream shop? I'll give them a ring and see if any cheaper.


Thanks

Claire

    • You have my complete sympathy. In my case, I discovered you can't even go to an eye emergency clinic any more. You have to phone round opticians on a list who are part of a scheme. The only one in East Dulwich who was part of the scheme had a six week waiting list. That isn't very helpful when you are in danger of going blind. I was lucky that another East Dulwich optician told me to try one in Crofton Park, who was able to see me that day. They told me it was good that the ulcer had been caught early. Hollow laugh. It was three days and a long long saga  before I could get the eye drops. Ironically, I paid for a private prescription rather than the optician sending it to my GP to prescribe because I thought it would be quicker 😭 And then I couldn't get the effing drops anywhere anyway.
    • Yes, it's crazy! I called the doctor to see if there's any way to find out who has them, and they just said I need to call around. Unfortunately I can't really take an alternative. I've finally found one that has 17 days worth, so I'm going to run before they get taken before me. 🙂  I had called 30 different pharmacies in South London, madness.
    • Hopefully that's the case, unless the receiver left specific instructions concerning a safe place (i.e. behind the bins) in which case the receiver is deemed to have accepted the goods and their responsibility if they go missing.  Obviously in this case a safe place would be hard to identify but none the less if any instructions were given to leave it if no one is in then responsibility is removed from the company and courier. Equally, I've had cases where a delivery didn't occur and tracking shows it had, only for delivery actually occur a day or days later.
    • I had this problem recently when I couldn't get antibiotic eye drops anywhere which I needed urgently for an eye ulcer. Wholesalers had run out. I had to get a new prescription for an alternative antibiotic. Might whoever has prescribed yours be able to suggest an alternative, even on a temporary basis, or is that not possible? I have read that this is happening all over the country. I believe it is partly but not wholly to do with Brexit. What seems ridiculous to me is that there is apparently no central system to be able to find out  what wholesalers/pharmacies have a particular medication in stock. People who need urgent treatment are stressed enough already without having to phone round themselves to find a place who has what they need.
