A Wash & Cut for girls aged 11 to 14 is a short, straightforward appointment designed for young teens who need a neat, manageable haircut without the fuss of a full styling session. It's a good fit for pre-teens and teenagers wanting to keep their look fresh for school, with a calm and patient approach throughout.

What's Included
The appointment is simple and focused, typically taking around 30 minutes:
- A brief consultation to talk through length, style and any school guidelines, usually with both parent and daughter involved
- A shampoo at the basin, with light conditioning added for longer or tangle-prone hair
- Careful detangling and sectioning before the cut begins
- A haircut tailored to the request, whether that's a trim, a one-length finish, layers for movement, or a simple fringe
- A quick towel-dry or light finish to check the shape, rather than a full blow-dry style
If a fuller blow-dry finish is wanted, it's worth asking whether that's better booked as a separate styling appointment.
Who It Suits
This service is aimed at girls aged 11 to 14 who need a school-appropriate, easy-to-manage cut rather than an elaborate restyle. It suits:
- Regular trims to keep ends healthy and hair tidy
- A modest change in style, such as adding layers or a fringe
- Young teens who feel more comfortable with a stylist experienced in working with this age group
Our team, including senior stylists such as Katie Williams, Lucy Osborne, Emma Stokes and Hannah James, alongside stylist Chloe Phillips and Creative Director Geraint Osborne, are used to keeping appointments relaxed and clearly explained at each step.
Getting the Most From Your Visit
A little preparation helps the appointment run smoothly:
- Bring a photo reference if there's a specific style in mind, it makes communicating the look much easier
- Mention any school rules on hair length or style before the cut starts
- Flag any scalp sensitivities or product allergies so the right products are used
- For longer or thicker hair, allow a little extra time for detangling
Regular visits every 6 to 8 weeks help keep ends healthy and the style easy to maintain between appointments in Cardiff.
