Sharkey’s Cuts for Kids
020 76252680
77Abbey Rd, St John’s Wood, London, NW8 0AE
I found a real treasure of a place yesterday – a kids hair salon! Sharkey’s is a salon based in St John’s Wood, and specialises in haircuts for kids… younger children can sit in a choice of shaped cars (Barbie / racing cars etc.) while having their hair done, older children can play on X boxes etc, and the girls can have a mini nail treatment. How good is that? And on top of that, there is space downstairs for a kids party! Finish off with a balloon and a lollipop, and I think you have a great idea. This is a franchise brought over from America, and there is another salon in Radlett. (I haven’t visited that one yet!). Well worth checking out….
