We will be in MK on Thursday-- I'm trying to devise a touring plan and would like to know the best time of day to fit in haircuts for my 7 and 1 year olds. I am hoping to be there when the park opens but we are driving and it may be a little later than that. I know it will be busy this week so I'm hoping to get as many fastpasses as we can and minimize our time in lines (including the barber shop). TIA!
 
I took my DD9 to get a haircut at the barber about 3 pm on a wednesday in june and their was nobody else in the shop expect Micheal (sp) and another barber. It was wonderful since they laughed and joked and lavished her with attention. They even put stickers over her mouth when they asked me how to cut her hair and she answered
 
We have found the best time to be just after the park opens. We have been there twice and had a small wait the first time and no wait the second time.
 
I have to ask....why would you want to get a haircut at Disney? Do they do something special? Seems like a waste of time to me!....unless there is a great experience involved in getting a haircut there. My kids would have hated me if I made them get a haircut while at Disney!
 

Of course it's something special! For 7 year old ds they will give him a trim and paint his hair "buzz lightyear blue" and sprinkle him with pixie dust. 1 year old ds is getting his very first haircut (I've waited so long everyone thinks he's a she!). For the first haircut they get a certificate, "first haircut" mouse ears and a commemerative certificate. I've also heard they cover him in stickers and will package a lock of hair for you. I didn't know about the 1st haircut experience when ds1 was a baby, but he's had his haircut a few times and always got extra special treatment from the CMs everywhere we went. Not a waste of time at all.
