how old should a little boy be before he gets his 1st hair cut?

Answer 1

Majority of parents I know wait around the little boys first birthday to get it done.

Answer 2

I always think that it doesn't matter what age a child for the first haircut, if they need it do it. With my 2 boys, I always trimmed their hair when it grows too long and they were about 5-6 months old when I did this. Just make sure that you are really careful, I would do it when they would be asleep so they would not move. But when they get older they can go to the salon. I found that if I did this early they were a lot easier to handle at the salon and weren't so scared.

Answer 3

I had to trim my lil boys hair when he was just 5 months old, coz his hair grew thick n long and had caused him great discomfort, as I could see all the rashes behind his ears!The strands behind the ears had left cuts in his soft baby skin and I simply cldnt adhere to traditional belief that I should wait until he was a year old. So, its just the convenience and need of it, rather than customary requirement.

Answer 4

Depends on how much hair he has but most people like to wait until 1 years old.

Answer 5

I would say wait between 1 and 2 years old no sooner than 1

Answer 6

depends on what style you like....i got my sons hair cut before he was one and all it was, was a trim on the neck...i was so scared of them cutting it too short. If you like the look of long hair on a boy let it go a bit but i like my boy to look like a boy so as soon as it looks to long-chop it off!

Answer 7

Usually around his first birthday, to mark the milestone. Of course if he has more hair than his mom, I'd get his hair cut earlier.

Answer 8

depends on how long his hair, family traditions (my family says a year old) and if he will sit for the person doing the cutting

Answer 9

he should be 5 years old

Answer 10

as soon as you think he needs one. I dont think there is a set "age"
but i personally wouldnt before 6-8 months old.
