This book describes the activity of going to the hairdresser using 12 simple clear pictures.

There is a visual of a clock used to show that we have to wait our turn. I found it useful to borrow a cape from the hairdressers and ‘play hairdressers’ at home. Use the book as an aid to talk about the noise at the hairdressers; turn on your own hairdryer. Use some gel to talk about someone feeling your hair and the new smells you find at the hairdressers. Show your child that you have to sit still in the hairdressers chair, perhaps you sit still and let your child ‘do’ your hair!

The book also provides for an opportunity to talk about the importance of grooming and looking nice.
