Shear Madness Haircuts for Kids 8261 North Booth Avenue, Kansas City, MO 64158

"Zero stars if I could. I went online and booked an appointment for two of my children. The first appointment I booked was for December 31st at 12:30pm. I received confirmation texts and when I arrived for my appointment the salon was closed. There was no signage on the front door or windows indicating their hours had changed. Their Facebook page also had no information available in regards to their hours being different. I booked again for January 16th at 3pm, received confirmation email and text and the same thing happened. I’ve heard wonderful things about another salon called Laughs and Locks Haircuts for Kids and we are going to go there from now on. Shear Madness really has disappointed me with their lack of professionalism with their communication."

"Do NOT take mixed children here. They clearly do not know how to cut curly hair. Took my 2yo son for his first haircut.His hair was quite long. Asked for the sides to be faded with a #3 on top to keep it longer but even. They did not listen to a single part of it since he looks bald with a #1 all around his head. If you don’t understand or know what you are doing say that and we can go elsewhere. We will never be back! Absolutely horrible experience steer clear if you have curly hair!!!!"

"We tried to get appointments at two other shops because the last time we went to Shear Madness (Olathe) they did a rough job, but I figured we’d give this one a shot since it was a different location. As we walked in, a mom was angry at the stylist because the back of the cut was uneven and the stylist tried to tell her it was a cowlick (it wasn’t). Unfortunately we got the same stylist and I showed her a pretty common boys cut (shaved sides, LONG on top). My son came in with a lot of length so it shouldn’t have been an issue. Tell me why this lady cut his hair so short and unevenly that the only way to fix it would be to shave him? At the register, the manager saw it and offered to fix his bangs (since one half is up to his scalp and the other half was longer), but I said no because I didn’t want it any shorter. My poor kid left there so sad about his hair. Unfortunately, we’re just going to have to let it grow out a bit and gel it so it doesn’t look so awful. This was the final straw for Shear Madness and we’ll never be back"
