5/5 Stars — Kat at Sharkey’s in Chesterfield is an absolute blessing for special needs and multi-kid families!As a parent, certain routine errands can feel completely overwhelming, and for our family, haircut day has historically been a major source of anxiety. Haircare is usually a massive uphill battle for us, but our visit to Sharkey’s Cuts for Kids in Chesterfield completely changed everything. Kat is a absolute miracle worker, and I am so incredibly grateful for the patience, kindness, and genuine care she showed to each of my three children.She started with my 2-year-old daughter, and I was blown away by how quick and tender she was. In what felt like just seconds, Kat expertly gave her a quick bang trim and styled her sweet curls beautifully before any toddler squirming could even begin.Next was my 5-year-old daughter, who is a sensory kid with ADHD. She has a very sensitive scalp, struggles to sit still, and often finds it difficult to answer direct questions from people. Kat handled her with a level of grace and understanding that is so incredibly rare to find. Instead of rushing or showing frustration, Kat was beautifully patient, engaging with her gently, and treating her with the utmost respect. She even gave her a beautiful braid. To see my daughter sitting there completely happy, safe, and comfortable was a total dream. For a child with sensory sensitivities, that comfort is everything.To top it all off, Kat is now working on my 9-year-old son’s hair, and she has been effortlessly chatting with him about his favorite video games and YouTube channels. She meets every single child exactly where they are at, adapting her energy perfectly to their age and personality. She is so incredibly nice, and I genuinely enjoyed just sitting and talking with her myself.This salon has created an environment that turns a stressful chore into a relaxing core memory. Within just five minutes of walking through the door, my son looked up at me and said, "Never take us anywhere else to get our hair done!" while he calmly queued up Roblox and relaxed with his sister. Kat didn't just give my kids great haircuts today; she gave a tired mom total peace of mind and made my children feel seen, safe, and happy. If you have kids—especially if you have a child with sensory needs or ADHD—do yourself a huge favor, go to the Chesterfield location, and ask for Kat. We will never go anywhere else!
