I took my daughter here for her first haircut about a month ago. She kind of freaks out about most new things, so I fully expected a meltdown.I was significantly & happily surprised when Tamara started snipping away & my daughter was happy as a clam. Couldnt tell you what she did exactly, but she was the baby whisperer, for sure. She was even able to braid her hair into a gorgeous little heart AND put a ribbon in it, even with her wiggling all over the place like some kind of worm.I will say, I do think its a tiny bit pricey for a kids haircut. However, my daughter did so well there via the methods they used that I dont feel its right to complain about that. Her hair is now gorgeous thanks to Tamaras patience. I only mention it so you dont walk in expecting to spend 10 bucks like at Supercuts or something.Overall, 10/10, would highly recommend!

This was our first time taking our son to Bambinos and we were very impressed how they cater to children. My son loved sitting in the taxi cab and watching Puppy Dog Pals on TV. They also have plenty of toys to keep the little ones busy if there is a wait.

I love that my grandkids get pampered here and we love their little added touch to each hair cut. We would definately recommend going here.

I didnt go, but my husband did with our son for his first hair shave. We will be back due to the attentiveness, expertise, and patience from staff.

We were walking by and what got my attention was the cute play area near the entrance door. I wanted to just check it out, and the staff were friendly. They took us in even without appointment. I was surprised when they included a cute hairstyle with ribbons and flowers along with the hair cut . It was fun and affordable, Id go back again. My little one was playing in the play area while her older sister got the hair cut.

Sweet little salon geared for children. Good variety of toys in waiting area, dedicated viewing screens at each station with a wide selection of movies, and patient stylists. Convenient hours including on Sundays. Some variation in stylist skills, but weve had mostly positive experiences with the 6+ different folks weve tried (now see Janae regularly; shes a whiz with my sons cowlicks!) Loyalty program with a free cut every 10 cuts. I see adults getting their hair cut at same time as their kids also!

Been coming here for about 10 years now, even with the change of ownership theyve maintained the same quality service. Ms.Toni is our favorite!

Great experience for my 2 year olds first haircut! VERY kid friendly. 😊There is a wealth of toys in the waiting area. The salon chairs have boosters for little ones and TVs for distraction. They also have car seats as an option. There is an entire bookshelf of movies too. All the distractions you might need (although I still took some bribes of my own)!My stylist helped me pick a good style for my little guy: one that took into account his hair type and my maintenance requests. She was patient and thorough and checked in along the way to make sure it was turning it okay. She even took a clipping of his hair and put it in a little baggie along with a first haircut certificate. Super cute!Ill definitely be going back!

My youngest HATES haircuts and has a very sensitive scalp. While I know his haircuts are a challenge for him, us, and the stylist... they are beyond patient, beyond caring. I cant say enough about this place and its always worth it.

I went in as a walk-in and they had some time to take my daughter. The hairstylist did a great job on my daughters hair & made her very happy! Now shes asking to go every week to at least get her hair braided!

We have taken our son to two other places that specialize in haircuts for kids and have been disappointed for a variety of reasons. We will definitely be returning to Bambinos for all of our sons haircuts in the future. They have toys, movies, and video games to entertain/ distract the kids in a large, clean salon. More importantly, the staff were patient and kind and took the time to give my son a good-looking haircut instead of just trying to get him in and out of the chair as quickly as possible. We will definitely be back.

I called a few days ago about ear piercing since a friend recommended this place. I was told that only the manager performed ear piercings and that she would be in the store from 9-1 on Saturday. I planned my trip accordingly. My daughter was very excited. Her excitement quickly turned into disappointment when the receptionist told us the manager was completely booked. I mentioned that I had called and was never told I needed an appointment. (The whole conversation was about ear piercing and the managers hours, but the employee never mentioned we needed an appointment.) The receptionist did offer to get the manager for me, but I could see she was quite busy. This was a wasted trip. My daughter is not happy.

When I was a small child my father would take me to the local Barber. Its here I learned a lot of the more colorful English verbs and nouns. Bambinos is the opposite of all that. So amazing.

Love this place for my little guys big boy haircuts. Karen is fantastic! Shes quick, and cuts really well. My little guy has a bunch of cowlicks, and she always cuts it perfectly, so there arent any weird spots.

I loved it SOOOOOOOOOOO much! I used to go there when I was younger, but I stopped for no reason in particular reason. I wanted to get my ears pierced and I remembered they did it there so I got my ears pierced and my hair cut. I am so happy with the way they treated me and it is just so cute there! They even braided my hair for me!

Great haircuts and they certainly cater to the kids. They get to pick a video game to play or movie to watch while getting hair cut.

I had an appointment for a trim but I was turned down when I asked for a blow dry for my daughter’s hair at the end. The stylist just told us it will take to long(?!?) I’ve been there many times, waited past my appointment time more than once, always tipped well but I guess it doesn’t matter when it’s on their time. I’m never going back again.
