There’s nothing like getting your hair cut at Cozy’s where every child is treated like a star!

General Info

Way back in 1992, a friend of mine told me about her cute little nephew's awful haircut experience at an adult salon. He was scared and began to cry and they were politely asked to leave the salon. That was my "Lightning Bolt Moment". I began to research the industry, knowing nothing about the salon industry, children or parents. I wasn't married, didn't have children and had no retail experience- other than part-time high school jobs. I was amazed! It became obvious to me that the market was ripe for a salon that would not just allow children, but would welcome them with open arms. I needed to create a place that kids would love to visit (that's where the Toy Boutique part of the concept came from). Equally important, the salon needed to be staffed with the highest level of experienced stylists, who enjoyed working with children and whom parents would feel comfortable entrusting their children's hair to. Two years later, after working in an assortment of children's businesses and obtaining my barber's license, the first Cozy's Cuts For Kids opened on Madison Avenue on Dec 10, 1994. We were bustling from the first day! Eighteen years later -and three salons later- I am constantly amazed and touched by the strength of the emotions that our little clients and their parents feel toward us. I am often stopped by our customers who tell me what an impact Cozy's has had on their lives. So many children have a hard time with haircuts and it is so wonderful to know that we have made a difference. I watch my amazingly gentle staff work their magic on the kids and it makes my heart swell with pride and delight. In keeping with our customer's requests, we have created So Cozy Hair Care for Children- the first professional line of hair care products made with the finest vitamins and minerals that are gentle enough for kids. We added delicious fragrances- sweet strawberry, groovy grape and more, so that kids would love So Cozy as much as their parents! We then added BOO! hair care to our offerings, which are Lice Prevention products. Then, continuing on my quest to address children’s hair care needs, I recently published my first book, Cozy’s Complete Guide To Girls’ Hair. Let’s see what’s next!
