I'd only cut one child's hair per day so you're not juggling. They don't all need to be on the same day. That would stress me out and none of mine are bath-resistant. I'd also cut less often, if that's a possibility. Of my 3 boys, two have short hair and one has long. None of them get haircuts even monthly. It's more of a "hey, you're looking a bit shaggy, haircut tomorrow?" (Sorry, cross-posted, I see you explained the frequency above.)

I usually cut in the kitchen where it's easy to assembly line and sweep.

Cutting all at once has been necessary in the past because of my hang up about my own sensory reaction to the hair getting on me, but when I have the hair dresses apron that will be more of an option.

So in a few weeks this might be a very viable option. Thank you!

I wish. Showers are a solid no go with my younger two. M can't stand the pressure of the running water on his skin I can't even rinse his hair with the removable shower head, I have to use a wash cloth only, and V is scared of them.

Could you hire a local tween or teen girl to help? Cheaper than haircuts.

Also why every 2 weeks? I cut my boys’ hair once a month ish.

My dh is a trucker, gone 18-25 days usually.
