Book ahead. Book before visiting, especially on weekends; multiple customers say walk-ins can be refused even when staff appear free.
Specify style. For a child’s cut, explain the desired length and shape in detail rather than relying on the barber for creative suggestions.
Confirm pricing. Ask for the price before starting, particularly for girls’ cuts, facials, beard touch-ups or other add-ons.
Allow time. Leave extra time around appointments: one customer returned at the booked time and waited another 20 minutes during a staff dispute.
Use distraction. If your child gets anxious, bring or connect an iPad; Wi-Fi is available and one review says it helped with crying.

Children’s haircuts are a major reason families visit, with reviews ranging from very positive results to complaints about inconsistent styling.
The salon is used for combined men’s haircuts and beard shaping, although one customer was not satisfied with the result.
One customer specifically visited for white hair colour together with beard setting and said the requested look was delivered.
Facials are mentioned, but one customer objected to being charged AED 300 without first being asked which facial they wanted.
A dedicated children’s barber area is mentioned as part of the salon’s family setup.
Customers have been turned away without appointments, including when several barbers appeared available and the policy change was not communicated.
Children’s results are inconsistent; one parent described a two-year-old’s trim as producing a bowl-like shape.
Some customers consider the salon expensive compared with nearby shops, especially for basic haircuts and beard shaping.
A customer reported that a barber did not clearly respond after cutting too much hair from the front.

The Bottom Line
Croppers Gents & Kids Salon in Al Nahda handles children’s and adults’ grooming, with reviews mentioning kids’ haircuts, beard shaping, hair colour and facials. The strongest feedback centres on clean surroundings, courteous service and careful cuts; one parent even said a usually nervous baby did not cry during the haircut. The experience is not completely consistent.
Some customers praise the patient handling of young children and detailed work, while others describe poor kids’ cuts, including a bowl-like shape, or say the barber did not follow their instructions. For children, it is worth explaining the exact length and shape you want rather than assuming the stylist will suggest it. Appointments matter here.
Weekend visitors are advised to book, and several customers say they were refused as walk-ins, including during apparently quiet periods. There are also complaints about staff coordination and unclear communication around changed booking rules. Price is another point to check in advance.
Reviews mention AED 30 haircuts, AED 40 for a child’s cut, AED 143 for trimming and small hair cutting, and AED 300 for a facial. That makes confirming the exact charge before treatment especially sensible, as some customers found the salon expensive compared with nearby alternatives.
