Readers' Choice Winner: 40-West Barber Shop

When it comes to who to trust with your children's hair, the readers have spoken.

 

(UPDATED) It's official: Catonsville Patch readers have selected 40-West Barber Shop as the runaway best place to get your child a hair cut in Catonsville.

About a third of this family-owned shop's clientele is kids, with parents bringing them in since they were infants,  according to co-owner Wayne Jerrell. Jerrell said he runs the shop with his son and daughter.

Second place goes to Catonsville Hair Company, which has nothing but five-star reviews from our readers on its business listing at catonsville.patch.com/places.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on Patch, and stay tuned next week as ask you where the best place is to get a sandwich!

(ORIGINAL POST) Save the facials, cocktails and waxes for the grown-ups. Your kids don't need the full salon treatment—they just need a haircut.

Catonsville has no shortage of salons and barber shops catering to your little one's locks. Take our poll to help decide which business does it best.

How come US Barber's not listed, or at least a space for a write in? They're right smack dab in the middle of Catonsville, and not a chain (I don't think), so I think they deserve a shot.

I'm with Jeff - US Barber is local, does a great job for kids, and is very affordable. And yes, right in the middle of Catonsville. Can the Patch add "Other" with an option to list places not listed on this and future surveys?

Amy, you did the right thing by responding in the comments. The story has been updated to add U.S. Barber and you can vote for it in the polls.

We only take our son to US Barber. We've tried other places but the results aren't consistent and he always gets a good cut there.
