Extra Care Hair Co. 3433 South Campbell Avenue, Springfield, MO 65807

"I cannot thank Kristen enough for her patience and kindness. Our first haircut for my autistic 3 yo was an absolute nightmare, for both me and my child, at a popular children's salon. Absolutely no tears were shed during the appointment with Kristen. She was phenomenal and I will never take him anywhere else."

"I took my 3 year old son to Kristen for his first haircut. She was so good with him, patient and happy to explain things to him every step of the way."

"Kristen is the best! She has cut my kid's hair and colored my hair. She takes her time and really cares about her clients. She also takes time to explain what she may notice about your particular hair needs and makes recommendations you can do at home (not pushing product or anything). She is such a genuine person!"

"Kristen and Toni are two extremely talented stylists who have worked hard to create a local business that grows and changes to meet the needs of the community. I’ve had the privilege of watching their salon grow since 2020 when they provided a safe place for me and my family to go when we were nervous about entering a busy salon environment during the pandemic. Kristen and Toni’s shop is quiet and cozy, ensuring that you don’t have the distraction of lots of noises and people around you. Kristen is so kind and accommodating. She doesn’t just provide sensory-friendly haircuts - she provides a safe and loving experience for clients who are slow to develop trust. And believe me, once Kristen works her magic, her clients come back time and time again with a smile and a hug. She is skilled at all kinds of cuts and styles and has previous experience working in a barber shop. She is a well-rounded, entrepreneurial woman who built a business she should be super proud of. Toni is a ray of sunshine and extremely responsive to her client’s needs. She has done some amazing color treatments for clients that she showcases on the Extracare Facebook page, but my personal favorite service she offers is a scalp massage. Just what I needed to unwind from a long day at work! She also has experience working with kids and can do a complete trim in just a matter of moments before her little clients even know what has happened. She is truly a blessing! Some additional services that Kristen and Toni provide, by popular demand: Cut and color, sibling and military discounts, gray blending, even ear piercing, and so much more! If you need a specialized service, chances are they provide it. And the best part - You can book completely online! I am so lucky to have found a salon where I don’t feel overstimulated or rushed. Kristen and Toni are the best! Go online now and check them out for yourself!"

"Thank you so much, Toni. ♥️ I can't even express how grateful I am. I know these situations aren't always easy to navigate but you did it with such grace. I appreciate the unwavering effort and the level of kindness and patience you showed consistently. We adore you and appreciate you. We came today with the expectations of leaving without a hair cut and just simply building rapport for the next appointment. I'm over the moon with how much his temperament shifted from start to finish, thank you for today. Knowing there is somewhere to go with people that care for taking care of our kiddos, is the biggest relief. Never looking for a "perfect" haircut but DANG it definitely turned out cute! ♥️So happy to have found you! You were incredible with both of our boys!"
