Calming Clipper, The Silent Haircutting Kit for Children with Autism and Sensory Sensitivity, Right-Handed

My son really dislikes haircuts, but these clippers made a big difference. They cut evenly and offer about five length options. It’s very easy to use once you get the hang of it. The only tricky area is around the ears, but that can easily be finished with regular scissors. The blade is very sharp, so be careful if your child moves or resists. Overall, I’m very happy with this product—it works especially well for feisty toddlers.

I bought this kit for my son, and it has been a game-changer! He has always been very sensitive to noise, so traditional haircuts would be a stressful experience for both of us. This silent haircutting kit is quiet, easy to use, and designed with children who have sensory sensitivities in mind. The ergonomic design for right-handed use makes it comfortable to hold, and my son actually tolerated the haircut without the usual anxiety or meltdowns. The kit also comes with all the necessary tools, so I didn’t have to buy anything extra. Overall, this kit made haircutting at home a calm and positive experience. I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a stress-free solution for their child with autism or sensory challenges.

My sons will not allow anyone but me near their hair, and despite YouTube tutorials I haven't been able to master haircuts with traditional shears. Then I found these on Amazon and was excited to try them! It comes with an instructional booklet, a storage case, a cleaning brush, and some hard plastic cards to keep the guards neat and organized. I thought that was a nice touch! It did take some trial and error to figure out the correct way to hold and angle the clippers. I almost thought I accidentally ordered a pair of left handed scissors, lol. Due to the nature of the design, it's difficult to manuver them around the front and left side (the opposite side of my dominant hand), so you will have to move with the scissors - you can't stand behind them to do all the cutting like you would with regular shears. The images in the instructions were very helpful though! You want to go slow when cutting off the length. If you try to do the quick snips right off the bat, you will pull their hair. Follow the instructions by cutting pieces of the length off before you do the quick snips to even everything out. Taking your time is super important. My sons don't like the cape, but that is their personal preference rather than anything being wrong with it. This product comes with AMAZING customer service!! Their clippers have a lifetime guarantee. One of the guards broke as I tried to put it on the clippers - I believe it was a manufacturing error, since it didn't seem to fit properly and I didn't have that problem with the rest of the guards. I contacted customer service to ask about a replacement. I received a response before the end of the day, and they sent me one free of charge as well as a complimentary pair of safety scissors! Overall, for the price this product is WELL worth my sanity and my boys' comfort. It's an amazing invention & you won't regret buying it!!

Good non vibrating hair cutting system for children with sensory processing disorder, however; I found it a bit challenging to figure out and the cutters were not very sharp to cut through the hair efficiently. Manny size guards to choose from and they got the job donep so I give 4 stars.

It's taken me a minute to be able to get to this review but I HAVE to write about it because sincerely, not only is this company phenomenal, but now I can say the scissors themselves are phenomenal. I have a child with autism and sensory processing disorder. I've been cutting his hair since he was 2 (now 5 almost 6) and I was looking for a way to get that clipper look without the scary clippers. So first lets get to the company because that is the first thing that happened. When you receive your scissors they include a little card that says to contact them directly not Amazon if you have an issue. Well after some bribery and much needed coaxing that these scissors would make the hair cut shorter to my child (then just turned 5), I started cutting and he cried and screamed saying it hurt. The scissors weren't cutting his hair and instead pulling on his hair. I immediately was frustrated because I was worried it'd be harder to cut his hair now since I couldn't say "haircuts don't hurt" any more. So I decided to email the company with the card given to see what their response would be. Within 24 hours I had a representative contacting me asking me for my address and saying "don't worry about that pair just toss them we are sending you a replacement right now, no extra charge" I was pleased and happy that there wouldn't be a hassle in a return and low and behold I had a new full set straight from the manufacturer within the week! I was very happy with the quick turn around and wonderful customer service and was even offered a free pair of safety scissors to accompany them. But now I had to wait until my child trusted the scissors to try again. Well it finally happened last week! I was starting to cut with my normal hair cut scissors and he pointed to the Calming Clippers and said he wanted me to use those. So I did. Ya'll... IT WAS MAGICAL. I cut his hair in record time and it was easily the nicest looking haircut I've given him to date! I have learned a lot on my own with freestyle cutting his hair and I WISH I had bought this product sooner to make my life easier. Literally could have saved so much time and cuts on my fingers if I had these sooner. So if you are struggling with a child who is fearful of hair cuts and are debating on whether or not to buy this product, I'm here to tell you to DO IT! Even if the first pair is a dud, email the company and they will make it right. Literally one of my favorite products now and I truly believe that this product now has broken my child's fear of hair cuts.

I have a kiddo on the spectrum that also has sensory issues. Hair cuts were a thing that happened once a year or once every 18 months because we had to physically restrain him. It was awful for him, for us, and for any neighbors with their windows open while we cut his hair. We cut his hair with these clippers yesterday in 10 minutes flat. No screaming. No restraining him. Minimal fuss. And he looks adorable. There are a ton of different length guards in the bag so we were able to give him a nice even haircut without getting too close to his scalp. I cannot recommend this enough for kiddos who loathe clippers and haircuts!

Have these scissors changed my life? Sounds a little silly, but yes, 100%! Haircuts with my 5 y/o became progressively more difficult when he turned 3. Figuring out what works and doesn't work for us became expensive, at home cuts turned him into Lloyd Christmas's doppelganger, and seeing him stressed about a haircut stressed me. My kiddo had zero complaints while using this product for the first time. Zero! We got through an entire haircut without any tantrums AND super easy to use. Blades very easily cut thick hair with minimal noise. A little awkward to hold, but I'm sure that'll get easier with more use. We're giving less Lloyd Christmas and more Derek Zoolander. Another plus in my book is how sleek/small the case is. The guards can stay organized by size in the case and it's not bulky. Chef's kiss.

Love them and the idea. But when we were cutting my son's hair which wS going great until we got behind his ear and the blade by the handle pinched my son's ear. Cutting his ear. Does that much of the blade have to be that sharp??

Ottimo prodotto, versatile e forbice molto tagliente.

This is a scissors not a calming electric clippers.

My Grandson has Autism and hated his hair cut. So his mum found these which we ordered. He now lets his mum cut his hair. No crying, nothing. The noise from what I have been told is that low it does not bother him. They seemed to me to be sturdy and well made and came with accessories and a carry bag. So if these help my Grandson then the money was well spent for him. I would definitely recommend these for anyone with children that struggle to have their hair done.

Perfect quiet and fuss free haircut solution for my Autistic son who can not tolerate the noise from the vibration of silent clippers. These scissors are a game changer

Really great product. Yesterday we were cutting our son's hair for the first time✂️ This really helped us and he didn't complain at all. Best thing ever.
