Quick answer
A kids haircut at Supercuts costs about $18 to $24 in 2026 for children 12 and under. That’s usually $4 to $6 less than the adult cut.
Teens 13 and older usually pay the adult price of $22 to $30. These are estimates, and each salon owner sets the age cutoff.

Kids cuts are probably the best deal on the Supercuts menu. A short boy’s clipper cut takes about 15 minutes and costs a few dollars less than Dad’s.
Supercuts, the walk-in hair salon chain owned by Regis Corporation, doesn’t have play areas or car-shaped chairs, though. It’s a regular salon that cuts kids’ hair.

What age counts as a kid at Supercuts?
Most Supercuts salons give the kids price to children 12 and under. A few franchise owners stop at 10, and we can’t list which ones do.
Around 1,648 of the 1,744 salons were franchised as of March 31, 2026, per Regis Corporation. That’s why the rule shifts.
Staff don’t usually ask for proof of age. If your 12-year-old looks 15, say the age at check-in so there’s no confusion at the register.
What do teens pay at Supercuts?
Teens 13 and older usually pay the adult rate, about $22 to $30. There’s no student or teen discount on the national menu that we know of.
Some local owners run back-to-school promos in August. They’re local. Check the app or call the salon, since coupon sites are often a year out of date.
A 14-year-old who wants a skin fade pays what his dad pays, about $22 to $28 for a men’s cut. Long hair on a teen can reach the $28 to $45 long-hair rate.
Supercuts Rewards can help families. Members earn 1 point per dollar, so three kids at $20 each every six weeks add up to a free cut in about six visits.

First haircut tips for toddlers
A first haircut at Supercuts usually costs the regular kids price, $18 to $24. We haven’t seen a separate first-haircut package on any menu we checked.
Some stylists will save a lock of hair in an envelope if you ask. It’s a nice gesture, not a promise, so bring your own small bag just in case.
Timing matters more than anything else here. A toddler at 10 a.m. on a Tuesday is a different child from the same toddler at 5 p.m. on a Saturday.
Weekday mornings are the quietest time at most salons. Check the wait in the app first, since a 40-minute wait with a 2-year-old rarely ends well.
Bring a snack that doesn’t crumble and a tablet with one show loaded. Sitting on a parent’s lap is fine at most salons, just ask the stylist first.
Keep the goal small. A 1-inch trim around the ears and neck is a win for a first cut, and you can go shorter next time once they’re used to the buzz of clippers.
One honest note. Supercuts stylists vary a lot in how patient they are with squirmy toddlers, and a kid-focused salon may be worth the extra $10 for the very first visit.

Kids haircut questions
Does Supercuts give a discount for siblings?
Not as a national policy that we know of. Each child pays the kids price, though a local owner might run a family deal, so ask.
Can a parent stay next to the chair during a kids haircut?
Yes, at most salons. Standing nearby or holding a toddler on your lap is common. Ask the stylist where they’d like you to be.
How often should kids get a haircut?
Short cuts on boys often need a trim every 4 to 6 weeks. Longer hair can go 8 to 12 weeks between cuts.
What if my child cries and the cut isn’t finished?
Talk to the stylist and the desk. Whether you pay the full price for a half-done cut is up to the salon, and many are flexible.
Should I tip on a kids haircut?
Yes, 15% to 20% is normal, so about $3 to $5. Add a bit more if the stylist handled a tough toddler with extra patience.
About this price data
These kids prices are estimates from published price guides, salon listings and customer reports we cross-checked through September 15, 2026. The age cutoff is the part most likely to differ.
If your salon uses a different age or price, the salon’s rule is the one that applies at the register.
