CALMING CLIPPER® - The Silent, Gentle Haircutting Kit for Children with Autism and Sensory Sensitivity - Right-Handed, Includes Barber Cape & Safety Scissor

I have a kiddo on the spectrum that also has sensory issues. Hair cuts were a thing that happened once a year or once every 18 months because we had to physically restrain him. It was awful for him, for us, and for any neighbors with their windows open while we cut his hair. We cut his hair with these clippers yesterday in 10 minutes flat. No screaming. No restraining him. Minimal fuss. And he looks adorable. There are a ton of different length guards in the bag so we were able to give him a nice even haircut without getting too close to his scalp. I cannot recommend this enough for kiddos who loathe clippers and haircuts!

I bought this kit for my son, and it has been a game-changer! He has always been very sensitive to noise, so traditional haircuts would be a stressful experience for both of us. This silent haircutting kit is quiet, easy to use, and designed with children who have sensory sensitivities in mind. The ergonomic design for right-handed use makes it comfortable to hold, and my son actually tolerated the haircut without the usual anxiety or meltdowns. The kit also comes with all the necessary tools, so I didn’t have to buy anything extra. Overall, this kit made haircutting at home a calm and positive experience. I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a stress-free solution for their child with autism or sensory challenges.

I love this product. It gave my son the first positive haircut experience he has had in 3 years! Over two days, we were able to finish a whole haircut with some breaks in between when he got overwhelmed. It went so well! I would definitely recommend buying this product. The clippers are very quiet. The scissors cut well.

my twin boys are just under 2 years old. One of them is very sensative about things near his head, ears, face and will swat and hit me and yell no no go away while myself, or salon tries to cut his hair. I was looking for trimmers that would be easier and faster and came across these online. on a whim, i ordered them. they arrived faster then they said. I am not a stylist by any means but i have been trying to cut my 4 year old daughter, 13 year old son and twins hair for the last couple years as it is so expensive these days! I sat my less picky twin down and tried these clippers out. immediatly he didnt want the apron on. so i set it aside and sprayed his hair with water and began to cut away. He isn't too fond of the sound an electric razon makes so these less evasive sounding cutters seemed to keep him calm. i had him sitting in his highchair with some board books and goldfish. i am sure he ate plenty of his own hair, but i was able to trim his hair a bit before he ran out of patience. I decided to cut his first to show other brother that it is safe. I got my next twin in his highchair and had him play a toddler game on my tablet as it has noise and would distract him while my 4 year old helped play the game with him. He accepted the apron nicely, to my suprise! I started to spray his hair and he wasnt having it! He began screaming at me no no no go away and so i started to just comb his hair while he played. i realized that the calming clippers have the "comb" size on them and thus i can use it as a COMB...so i would alternate, pretending to comb his hair with a comb, and then switch when his hand was down and quickly snip. pretend to comb...wait....switch, comb, snip. it was a bit choppy as i am no stylist. I wasnt pleased with how he looked at the end, but at least the hair wasnt in his eyes and i was able to on occasion grab the reg scissors and get some around his ears as well as the calming clippers were not in my reach to switch out the sizes when you are in a hurry i didnt have time to switch between sizes so i just went with one size the whole time. i have used it a second time since and watched videos on how to use it and how to cut hair in general. He was much calmer the second time, but still knew i was trying to trick him. however, the second time looked a bit better. still choppy, but i blame myself not the clippers. I did talk to the inventor and they are trying to work on more videos of how to. I am sure if we as customrs post videos, it will also be helpful. if i ever get good enough to make one, i will certainly try!! i was not completely satisfied and they returned my money and are letting me keep the clippers. i am truely very greatful for this! I will attempt a few more times and if it doesnt work out, i can pass them on to a few families i know who have children that probably need these more than myself. i am super greatful for the refund and hope that it is just my lack of knowlege and that it will get less choppy over time. in the meantime, my twins can at least see!! my favorite thing is that the comb is attatched so my twin thinks i am just combing his hair until last minutes when i snip. that right there alone, makes it much more easier. i would recommend these because if you don't like them they do have a 100% guarantee money back. so you don't have anything to loose! i hesitated myself because of the price, but honestly...after the last 2 times i have basically spent the same as i would have if id gone to the salon for all my kids. yes, i have tried them on my daughter who has banks. she enjoys them as its a quick comb and snip and it looks great! no, my finiky twin is not autistic, so i can't begin to know if it will help anyone who has a child with autisim. again, if these don't work for me, i do have two families i know that do have autistic children and i will be handing them off to them. i will update if this happens :)

My son is autistic and haircuts with regular clippers take us almost an hour and are so traumatic we’re all 3 crying at the end (me, son, husband) we ordered these on hope and faith alone. Less than 10 minutes and Z E R O meltdowns later, he’s got a GREAT cut! No long hairs cause we couldn’t put him through the torture of going over missed spots again. Super quiet, no pulling on his hair, just SUPERB!

My goodness, where have these been for the last decade of my life? Easiest, most even haircut my son has ever had. And now if the apocalypse comes and we have no power for our electric clipper, I can still give my husband a beautiful haircut as well...

The idea behind this product is great but it definitely needs a bit of improvement. I got this because my 3 yr old is a bit on the spectrum and has sensory issues and hair cuts for him are a nightmare. My older sister is a hairstylist and she cuts all of our families hair but for my younger son we struggled with full haircuts and even slight trims; he would cry, scream and shake and we felt horrible.She was the one who researched and came across this product and told me to try it myself and if he did good with it then she would proceed to try again this time using this product. I ordered this item yesterday afternoon and got it this afternoon overall pretty fast. I watched the video on how to use it over and over to familiarize myself with it as I was very nervous as I am in no way a hairstylist. One hour later after trying my best with very limited instructions on this product I managed to give my son a decent but not super great haircut;so far everyone has said it looks good considering I did it myself while trying to keep my toddler calm. Some few things to consider are that again the concept behind it is great I love that they designed a product that’s meant to help parents who’s kids struggle with haircuts at a regular salon but I do wish they would have had maybe more how to videos or more thorough instructions. While using the clipper scissors I struggled with two things and that was that the clippers would sometimes pull of my toddlers hair which made it difficult to use while working on limited time since let’s be honest toddlers cannot sit still for a long time; and two is that the hole where my thumb would go on the scissors hurted my thumb and I even had the take the hole guards off to try and make it more spacious and see if it helped but it did not. Now I don’t know if the scissors holes are maybe too small made for small hands or maybe I wasn’t holding it right but overall while my hands suffered I am not mad at how my sons haircut turned out. I do wish I could return this product as it is quite pricey but I will keep them and give them another try. Oh and also I got the scissors that are safety round scissors for trimming around the ears and even though they are round and suppose to be safe they still managed to give my son a small cut behind his ear so not happy about that.

It's taken me a minute to be able to get to this review but I HAVE to write about it because sincerely, not only is this company phenomenal, but now I can say the scissors themselves are phenomenal. I have a child with autism and sensory processing disorder. I've been cutting his hair since he was 2 (now 5 almost 6) and I was looking for a way to get that clipper look without the scary clippers. So first lets get to the company because that is the first thing that happened. When you receive your scissors they include a little card that says to contact them directly not Amazon if you have an issue. Well after some bribery and much needed coaxing that these scissors would make the hair cut shorter to my child (then just turned 5), I started cutting and he cried and screamed saying it hurt. The scissors weren't cutting his hair and instead pulling on his hair. I immediately was frustrated because I was worried it'd be harder to cut his hair now since I couldn't say "haircuts don't hurt" any more. So I decided to email the company with the card given to see what their response would be. Within 24 hours I had a representative contacting me asking me for my address and saying "don't worry about that pair just toss them we are sending you a replacement right now, no extra charge" I was pleased and happy that there wouldn't be a hassle in a return and low and behold I had a new full set straight from the manufacturer within the week! I was very happy with the quick turn around and wonderful customer service and was even offered a free pair of safety scissors to accompany them. But now I had to wait until my child trusted the scissors to try again. Well it finally happened last week! I was starting to cut with my normal hair cut scissors and he pointed to the Calming Clippers and said he wanted me to use those. So I did. Ya'll... IT WAS MAGICAL. I cut his hair in record time and it was easily the nicest looking haircut I've given him to date! I have learned a lot on my own with freestyle cutting his hair and I WISH I had bought this product sooner to make my life easier. Literally could have saved so much time and cuts on my fingers if I had these sooner. So if you are struggling with a child who is fearful of hair cuts and are debating on whether or not to buy this product, I'm here to tell you to DO IT! Even if the first pair is a dud, email the company and they will make it right. Literally one of my favorite products now and I truly believe that this product now has broken my child's fear of hair cuts.
