Some clients are simply better served at home, and children and seniors top that list. Mobile haircuts bring patience, comfort, and a familiar environment to the clients who need them most. Haircuts for kids at home A salon can be overwhelming for a child: the noise, the stranger, the big chair, the cape.

Gray coverage and color maintenance are the questions colorists hear most from clients over forty. Here are the straight answers, plus how to spend less time maintaining your color.
