THIS is the place, parents. If your kid is terrified of haircuts . or if you're just tired of bribing them with screen time to sit still . Sharkey's was literally built for this.
Everything about Sharkey's is designed around kids. Little ones sit in fun car-shaped chairs watching cartoons. Tweens get their own lounge with Xbox stations (good luck getting them to leave). And every haircut comes with the works . balloons, lollipops, and a prize at the end. It's less "haircut appointment" and more "fun outing that happens to involve scissors."
Why I like it: - 100% kid-focused: This isn't a regular salon that tolerates kids . this is a kids' salon that also cuts adult hair - The vibe is perfect: Colorful, fun, and loud in all the right ways. Kids actually WANT to come here - Experienced stylists: These folks cut kids' hair all day, every day. They know how to handle wiggly toddlers, nervous first-timers, and opinionated tweens - Minicures: They do mini manicures for kids, which is the cutest thing ever and makes a great add-on for a birthday treat - Open weekends: Saturday and Sunday hours are a lifesaver for working parents
The drive: It's about 25 minutes from Maryville in the Montvue Center area off Kingston Pike. Worth every minute of the drive if your kid has haircut anxiety.
Pro tip: Book ahead for Saturdays . they get packed. And check their Facebook page for seasonal specials and events.
