Meet Heidi Castro of Pelitos Hair Salon

Today we’d like to introduce you to Heidi Castro.

Pelitos is a magical place for kids and a place moms and dads trust for great haircuts.

Kids love going to Pelitos because they can play with their favorite toys, and parents feel great knowing their children are in good hands with our talented stylists. Pelitos is designed to make kids feel special and have fun. It’s a place you and your child will love to experience again and again. At Pelitos, not only do we specialize in children’s haircuts but also to the entire family. Kids with special needs get special attention. Our trained and professional stylists provide a positive experience for children with autism and they try to make the child comfortable about coming to the salon. At Pelitos we have cool kids’ styles and kid friendly products. We also have the First Haircut Certificate of Bravery. Getting a first haircut is a rite of passage. We’ll make sure it’s a fun experience, too. Our stylists are experts in making even our littlest customers comfortable and excited about this big step in their lives. We’ll help you celebrate the moment with a Certificate of Bravery which includes a lock of hair, a photo and a free small toy. At Pelitos, we love what we do and the fun begins the minute your child enters our salon.

Your child will experience a world designed for kids, that’s bright and colorful. We understand that every family is busy, so we work efficiently with the goal of making your child look great every time you visit. When you’re ready, so are we. We’re a walk-in salon, so no appointment is necessary. At Pelitos you can expect great service and a great experience for your little ones.

Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
The major struggle has been getting the right stylists with the right ingredients to take care of our little ones. When we are looking for a stylist we are looking for someone who loves kids, who has the experience in cutting a moving child’s hair and patience.

Is there a characteristic or quality that you feel is essential to success?
As owners we try to give our clients a more personal touch and are physically involved in the interaction between our little customers and their parents.
