Chapter 1
How to explain a Hairdresser to your child
A hairdresser works in a salon, a bright room with big mirrors, comfy chairs and a sink for washing hair. They greet each customer, ask how they would like their hair to look, and then get to work with scissors, a comb, a hairdryer and sometimes colors. For example, they might trim a little boy's hair so it stops falling in his eyes, or curl and braid hair for a party.
A hairdresser helps people feel comfortable and happy with how they look. When someone sits in the chair feeling a bit scruffy and stands up with neat, fresh hair, they often smile at themselves in the mirror. The hairdresser also listens, chats, and takes gentle care of each person, so a haircut feels like a calm, friendly moment.
