Pigtails & Crewcuts: Haircuts for Kids - Virginia Beach

"Behind every #smallbusiness is a #family ".

Thirteen years ago, I had 4 small children and I was pretty much a stay-at-home mom, except I taught a few dance classes at night. I always dreamed of owning my own business and when I realized we needed more money to be able to raise our 4 kids I thought this was my chance. I also wanted something that my kids could be a part of.
At the time my son had a hard time getting haircuts and it was hard to find a place to take him that welcomed children. A place that could handle the crying, screaming, kicking, hitting and unpredictable behavior of kids. We were looking for a place that was empathetic towards us and understood that sometimes kids just do not like haircuts.
I found out about a salon at Disney that made girls up as princesses. I loved this concept and thought this would be a great idea for a business. As I was looking into franchises, I decided I wanted something that provided services for girls and boys. Then I found Pigtails and Crewcuts and I knew it was the business I was looking for. I saw my dream of owning a small business that I could share with my family come alive.
I started the process of becoming a franchisor and in May 2007 I opened my first store. Then in July 2014, just 21 months after welcoming my 5th child into the world I opened my second store. I will never forget the joy I had having my family be apart of this great adventure. My kids helped set up the shelves, clean the store and where the first little ones to sit in the cars. I had no idea how much a place like Pigtails and Crewcuts was needed. It has been nothing short of an emotional, spiritual, educational and life altering roller coaster ride. A ride that, up until March 24, 2020, I would've bought a lifetime supply of tickets to ride. The friendships that we have cultivated throughout this journey has been so rewarding and fulfilling. It has been such a joy watching your families grow.

Then my dreams I worked so hard for hit a wall on March 24, 2020....the day we closed due to Covid-19. A day that I will never forget. I cannot put into words the raw emotions, worries, thoughts, feelings and anxiety I have had for the past 5 plus months. For example, having to look my team in the eyes to tell them we are closing, and I have no idea when or if we will coming back to work. Wondering if they are going to be able to handle the unknown for their families. Telling customers, we are closed. Calling landlords, creditors, suppliers, and insurance companies, to ask for payment deferments all for something that was completely out of my control. The feeling knowing I may lose all I have worked so hard for and have to look at my kids and tell them there is nothing left. Trying to put on a brave and happy face and think of ways to pivot my business to stay relevant so that maybe, when all this is over, I am still operating. The most crippling part of it is, none of it was in my control. I am, and have been, at the mercy of someone else.

I say all this to say, PLEASE continue to support your locally owned small businesses. They have been hit hard during this time and most small businesses are struggling to keep their doors open. PLEASE continue to share your stories of great experiences with your friends, family, neighbors, and social media circle. If you have a negative experience and you have seen nothing but positive reviews, show a little grace for those businesses. PICK UP THE PHONE and call to speak to the Owner or Manager, save the negative bashing for your journal. Don't publicly shame businesses that are opening up every day to give you and your community a unique place to shop and dine. Remember, when you walk into that establishment, they put on a happy face to make sure you are given the best experience possible. As a parent, we do this every day. We make sure our kids don't see the stress, anxiety, or worry that radiates through our minds and bodies on a regular basis. Your local business owners and staff are doing the same. Tell those people THANK YOU for continuing to fight their way through this crisis and if you have a positive experience, help them out by sharing it on Facebook, Instagram, google and yelp.

Thank you for continuing to support us now and for the past 13 years,
Jessica Fullwood, Owner

Pigtails & Crewcuts: Haircuts for Kids - Chesapeake

I am thinking of all of you today as you start virtual learning. My morning was a little stressful getting 3 of my 5 kids ready for virtual learning. I am now sitting in a weird silence in the house. Not sure how long it will last but will enjoy it for a little bit. I know I am worried we will miss a time for a class or not find a long in. But we will get through it. Good Luck today !!!!
