How to Cut a Kid's Hair Using Rubber Bands

If you're looking to cut a lot of hair at once, the fastest way to do so is by using rubber bands or hair ties to section off the hair, then cutting above the tie. This quickly gets rid of most of the length before you finish up with styling the child's newly cut hair. If hair is longer than 12 inches, consider donating it to a charity that makes wigs for cancer patients. This way children can learn about charity while taking on a new style. Does this Spark an idea?

Wash and dry the hair. Clean hair is easier to cut.

Part the hair in the center and separate it into four to six sections. Tie a rubber band or hair tie around each section. The more sections you have, the closer to the scalp you will be cutting and the more hair you will take off. If you would still like 4 to 6 inches of hair left, use only one ponytail.

Cut the hair above the rubber bands, as close to the scalp as possible.

Style the remaining hair with scissors to make the style you prefer.

Tips

- Leave rubber bands on the hair if you are donating it to charity. Donated hair should not be permed or color-treated.

Warning

- Be careful using scissors on a wiggly child's hair. If your child moves around a lot when cutting, try to cut at least 1 inch away from the scalp so as not to accidently hurt them.
