The Calm Cut™ Toolkit
A sensory - safe first haircut toolkit designed to help children, families and hair professionals approach haircuts with more confidence, predictability and support.
Created by Kelly from Sien Hair, Melbourne's leading private sensory-safe salon, The Calm Cut™ Toolkit has been developed through both lived experience and years of supporting neurodivergent, anxious and sensory-sensitive clients.
The toolkit has also been shaped through conversations, feedback and collaborative insights from families and allied health professionals, including occupational therapists and speech therapists.
