I am not good at cutting hair…also styling, etc. I would love to do a toddler boy with a crew cut or at least a real boy haircut. I was wondering if I could root him and take him to a professional barber. Anybody out there done that? Do you think I would be laughed out of the shop?

When you buy a wig they recommend you have it styled at a hair salon… to practice stylists have mannequin heads so I’m sure it wouldn’t be that weird and they’d probably love it

I am going to do the same if I ever get a chance to actually have time to root thw head, lol.
You could call ahead and ask if they would do that. They may think it’s odd, but who cares haha.

We brought a toddler doll to the barber before. 
I didn’t actually go with to the appointment, but it sounded like everything went well. The stylist didn’t mind at all. We did call in advance to let them know it was a doll coming, though.
Sincerely,
Jessica

I have thought about this before! It’s silly to think about but it would work!

I brought several when I first started making babies
Some one on here does that I just don’t remember who.
I’ve went with a friend to take her doll to the barber. He didn’t mind at all and actually had a good laugh while doing it.

Upside, the toddler sits still. Downside, the hair never grows back!

No, but you would probably make some sales.

That’s a thought I hadn’t considered. I think of all the times I got cut too short and hated it.

I have a lot of experience cutting hair. I’ve kind of retired from it at this point after 30 years or so of doing it as a hobby.
Lots of human heads but only a few dolls. That never growing back factor is a lot of pressure.
