Barber uses unique skills for kid's first haircut

GLEN ALLEN, Va. (WWBT)—A barber in Glen Allen is being recognized for her skills, which aren’t a required course in barber school.

Anderson Bowles,6, had been trying to get his haircut for the last 2 years.

“It’s a little messy. So, I think I’m going to get my haircut today. I think I will,” Anderson said.

Anderson’s mom, Casey, said her son was diagnosed with autism when he was 4 years old. While Anderson loves the idea of getting a haircut, the process can be a little frightening for him.

His hair kept getting longer and longer after several attempts to get a haircut.

Thankfully, Kat Munoz, a barber at Fadez and Bladez, was eager to help.
