The Good Stuff
First-Cut Keepsake
Some families were allowed to make the first cut, have it sealed, and receive a certificate.
Haircut Versatility
A parent said the stylist handled two very different hair types for their daughters with ease.
RTA Parking
One review specifically mentions parking being available through RTA, which is useful for family visits.
Tips for a Better Visit
Book Ahead. Reserve a slot rather than relying on a walk-in; one review warns that evenings can get particularly busy.
Confirm First. Because some customers could not reach the salon by phone or WhatsApp, confirm your booking before travelling.
Ask About Keepsakes. For a first haircut, ask whether the salon can let you make the first cut, seal it, and provide a certificate.
Reconfirm Stylist. If you have a preferred stylist, check the assignment before arrival; one booking was changed on the day.

Popular Mentions

Common Concerns
Booking Issues

Uneven Results
Some parents reported rushed or poorly matched cuts, including hair cut shorter and less evenly than requested.
Appointment Mix-Ups

The Bottom Line
Cute Kids Saloon is a children’s hairdresser in Al Barsha where families come for regular boys’ and girls’ haircuts, simple hairstyles and first haircuts. The first-visit ritual can be a nice touch: one family was allowed to make the first cut, have it sealed, and receive a certificate. The setting is designed to keep children occupied.
Reviews mention car-shaped seats, tablets for cartoons, toys in the waiting area, wall games and small treats such as lollipops. Several parents describe patient handling of toddlers, including children who normally cry at haircuts. One parent also said two different hair types were handled with ease, while another described the service as affordable for a boys’ haircut.
RTA parking is mentioned too. The main caution is organisation. Reviews report unanswered calls and WhatsApp messages, long walk-in waits and, in one case, a closed shop despite an appointment.
Results also seem inconsistent: some families praise precise, professional cuts, while others describe rushed or uneven work. Book ahead for busy evenings, confirm the appointment before travelling, and clarify who will do the cut if a particular stylist matters.
