Kids Barber & Haircuts in Murray Hill, NYC

A Kids Barber Near You in Murray Hill

If you searched for a kids barber near me or a kids haircut near me from Midtown, Murray Hill, Kips Bay or Gramercy, you are close. Deja Vu Barbershop is at 101 E 34th Street between Park and Lexington, a five minute walk from Grand Central and a block from the 6 train at 33rd Street. Kids' haircuts are part of every day here, not a special request. Our barbers know how to keep a child calm, work quickly once a kid is done sitting still, and send them out with a cut that looks sharp for weeks.

Bring the whole family. Pair your kid's cut with a fade or classic scissor cut for dad in the same visit, or book the Father & Son package and save $10 on the pair.

What You Get

• Patient, kid friendly barbers who explain what is happening in plain words
• Age appropriate styles, from first trims to school age fades and scissor cuts
• A relaxed, family welcoming shop where parents sit right beside the chair
• Walk in anytime, or book ahead to skip any wait
• One honest price: $35 for a kids haircut, the same as an adult cut

First Haircuts and Nervous Kids

A first haircut sets the tone for every one after it, so we do not rush it. Your child sits in a real barber chair, or on your lap if that is easier, gets to see and touch the clippers before they turn on, and hears exactly what comes next. If a kid needs a break, they get one. Parents stay right there the whole time. Most first timers leave smiling, and kids who had a hard time in another chair get the same patience here.

For toddlers and preschoolers we keep it simple: a clean scissor trim or a light clipper cut that grows out neatly. There is no pressure to sit perfectly still, and no lecture if they wiggle.

Popular Boys' Haircuts

• Kids fade: a low, mid or high taper on the sides, blended into length on top
• Classic scissor cut: a neat, even cut that looks tidy for school and grows out well
• Buzz cut: one length all over, the fastest cut for the kid who wants out of the chair
• Line up and edge up: crisp edges around the hairline, added to any cut
• Longer styles: textured crops and scissor styles for boys who keep length on top

Not sure what to ask for? Show us a photo, or tell the barber how your child wears it day to day, and we will recommend a cut that works with their hair type and how often you want to come back.

Back to School and Picture Day Cuts

Planning around school pictures or the first day back? Walk in early on a weekday morning, since we open at 8 AM Monday to Friday, or book online to lock in a time. A fade or scissor cut done two or three days before picture day settles in and photographs best.

A kids haircut is $35. The Father & Son package, an adult fade plus a kids haircut back to back, is $60. We are open Monday to Friday from 8 AM to 7 PM and Sunday from 10 AM to 5 PM; Saturday we are closed. Find us at 101 E 34th Street in Murray Hill, between Park Avenue and Lexington Avenue: five minutes on foot from Grand Central, one block from the 33rd Street 6 train, and an easy stop on the way home from school or the office.
