Cuts by Them was created by and for the LGBTQ and neurodivergent community. This is more than just a salon/barbershop; it's a space where your hair becomes a canvas for self-expression as an extension of your identity. I understand the importance of a safe, relaxing environment where you can truly be yourself. With online booking and a comfortable private suite, it’s easier than ever to get your next cut. No judgments, no gender norms, just impeccable service.

Adrian was amazing! My partner had not had a proper haircut since 2019. He has never liked a haircut, today was the first time he not only enjoyed the experience but left LOVING his transformation cut. We will DEFINITELY be back!

I was seriously overdue for a haircut and I'm so glad I chose Adrian when I finally decided to book one. All of their infirmation and instructions on booking, location, etc., really helped with my neurodivergent anxiety. When I got there they took the time to talk with me about what I wanted done and they checked with me on length after the initial cuts. They also confirmed my selections from the pre-appointment form (fidget toys & low scent). It was an overall wonderful experience with a thoughtful, conscientious stylist, and I love the cut itself too. A++ experience. 

my first cut with Adrian went really well. they accommodated my sensory comfort and i really appreciate that. they also made sure of what i would like for my hair. i felt at ease with them. i have my bang trim and next longer cut scheduled. i'm very happy to have met Adrian and look forward to continue working with them ♡ thank you Adrian.

This was a fantastic experience with care, thoughtfulness, and kindness. This was great :)

Absolutely wonderful experience. Got exactly the hair I wanted with exactly the atmosphere they had comfortable to me as an autistic person. I plan on recommending Adrian to everyone I know and hope this recommends them to everyone I don't know. If you want the perfect hair experience then look no further.

*FREE* Select only if you need more than about 5 minutes for a consultation. Examples are if you're unsure what type of haircut you'd like, unsure how to describe what you're looking for, want more styling advice, or want more guidance throughout the consultation process.

Select if your hair would benefit from being cut dry first and then cut wet. Largely for if your curls have a noticeable difference in shape or length from wet to dry. Wavy hair can be a Standard or Precision Cut because the hair looks and curls about the same wet or dry.

Transformation Cut

For kids 8 years and under. Must arrive with clean/brushed hair. No shampoo or neck shave included .....................................................................................[POLICY: I only service clients with their consent. Haircuts should not be a traumatic or scary event for children so I do my best to include the child in the decision making process and give them a sense of control in their service. If they give consent but begin to move around too much, start to resist or begin to cry during their haircut, I will stop the service until they can calm down and resume or choose to reschedule . This is to prevent any potential injury to myself and the child.  ***If this is their first haircut, I recommend bringing them in prior to their appointment to watch a family member get their haircut first. This can help them feel less overwhelmed and confused as to why a new person is touching their hair***
