Defined by the branded characters, games, stories, and a Magic Box that dispenses a prize at the end of the service, Snip-its is turning a traditionally stressful experience into an enjoyable activity for both children and their parents. Virtually unheard of in the hair care industry, the brand implements a unique and one of a kind stylist training program specifically for children with Autism, as part of their partnership with the national Autism Speaks organization.
Snip-its was founded in 1995 by Joanna Meiseles, a busy mother who sought a hair salon that catered to her young children. Twenty years later, the brand continues to be synonymous with the founder’s mission, offering quality children’s hair care and an environment that is welcoming, wholesome, and entertaining.
