Silent Cuts

Need haircuts for two people?
Our group booking option allows appointments to take place at the same time, making visits to the salon quicker and more convenient. No need to book one appointment after the other or make separate trips.

This short video shows you how to make a group booking through our online booking system.

📅Group bookings are currently available on Thursdays and Fridays.
💬 Is booking appointments together something that would be helpful for you or your family?

✂️💚 As we look back on our first nine months...we want to say thank you.
Thank you to everyone who has chosen Silent Cuts for their haircut, whether you came because of sensory needs, anxiety around haircuts, or simply because you were looking for a calm and welcoming salon experience.
Thank you to the parents, carers, family members and support workers who have trusted us with someone important to them.
Thank you to everyone who has shared a post, left a comment, recommended us to others, or cheered us on along the way.
Over the last nine months, we've learned a lot, and we're still learning every day.
Every person who walks through our door helps us grow and improve.
💬 Whether you've visited Silent Cuts, followed our journey online, left an encouraging comment, or simply cheered us on from afar… thank you for being here. 💚

✂️💚 One thing that has surprised us over the last nine months...
How far people are willing to travel for a calmer haircut experience.
We've welcomed clients from Belfast, Bangor, and many places in between.
Families are travelling because they're looking for a sensory-friendly haircut experience and haven't always been able to find one closer to home.
While we're sorry that so many people have struggled to find the support they need, we're grateful that they've trusted Silent Cuts with their haircut journey.
It's shown us just how important access to the right environment can be.
💬 How far would you travel for a haircut that felt comfortable and welcoming? We'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments or by message.

✂️💚 Over the last nine months, we've learned that comfort looks different for everyone.
Some people are happy to sit in the salon chair.
Others may feel more comfortable standing, moving around, sitting on a beanbag, or taking a break during their appointment.
At Silent Cuts, we try to work with each person in a way that feels comfortable for them.
Because when people feel more at ease, haircuts can become a little less stressful.
Choice and flexibility can make a real difference.
💬 Is there something that helps you or someone you support feel more comfortable during a haircut? Feel free to share in the comments or send us a message.

✂️💚 Another thing we've learned over the last nine months...
Preparation matters.
Our consultation form gives us the chance to learn a little about someone before they arrive.
What helps you feel comfortable.
Anything you might find difficult.
Any adjustments that could make the appointment easier.
That means we're prepared before the appointment begins, helping to create a calmer and more predictable experience from the start.
For some people, knowing they've already shared important information before they arrive can make a real difference.
💬 Is there anything you like people to know before an appointment? Feel free to share in the comments or send us a message.

✂️💚 One thing we've learned over the last nine months...
For some people, a busy salon can feel overwhelming.
Lots of people. Lots of noise. Lots happening all at once.
Because I'm here full-time and Brenda works part-time, there are often times when there are no other clients in the salon.
For many people, that's a huge relief.
It gives them time to settle into the space, get comfortable, and take things at their own pace.
Sometimes it's the simplest things that make the biggest difference.
💬 If there's something that helps you or someone you support feel more comfortable during a haircut, we'd love to hear about it.

✂️💚 Nine months in...
People often ask what makes Silent Cuts different.
The truth is…it isn't one big thing.
It's lots of small things working together: - a quieter environment, a little extra time, information before an appointment, and the freedom to do things in the way that works best for each person.
Over the last nine months, we've learned that these small adjustments can make a big difference.
Thank you to everyone who has trusted us, supported us, and been part of the Silent Cuts journey so far 💚
