Lori is fantastic! I was so nervous about my son's first haircut mainly because he hates to have his hair or head touched in general. I was afraid he was going to whip around and not stay still and it would be a disaster. But Lori assured us that her "special gift" was being able to work fast and efficient even when your toddler is squirming. He didn't end up moving too much but she wasn't bothered by any movement at all. My son's hair came out perfect and he was entertained by her tv playing Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and lollipop enough to let her get her job done. I also think it helped that she only does by appointment only sessions and she has her own private little studio room so there aren't any other people in the room to distract or upset your kids. He ended up crying halfway thru and wanting to get off the chair but she was quick and he got over it. So glad I came to Lori and we definitely will be back again!
