Best places to get haircuts for kids

Louis Graham and his 3-year-old cousin don new summer haircuts thanks to Mr. Will. I thought by now my boy, at age 8, would be able to get a drama-free haircut.
Louis has never liked having anyone cut his hair. It's not fear. It's being "tickled" around the ears.
As a toddler, I had to literally hold him down.
A discount hair chopshop had me in tears after a stylist asked what I had done to him to make him hate haircuts.
Nothing except give birth.
So, my shaggy-haired boy is trying to convince me that long hair is in. I wouldn't mind if he actually brushed and styled it.
My world changed after meeting Mr. Will at Kuts for Kids at 8122 S. Lewis Ave.
He’s fast, a pro at dealing with squirmy kids and has completely silent clippers, which is a big help. It’s a first-come, first-serve list.
Lots of toys, games and a video playing for entertainment.
Also, my 4-year-old daughter adores Julz at Salon Karma, 3230 E. 15th St. She has years of experience at kid-oriented salons. This is not a child-catering salon, but Julz has sparkles for girls.
Don't forget places like Clary Sage College or Jenks Beauty, where kids seem to respond to the young stylists.
Other suggestions?
