FOR AVON LIFE
AVON - Sally Larsen has been cutting children's hair for 18 years. She fell into her profession and it turns out that it is something she truly enjoys.
Over the years she has also learned how to help autistic children and their parents enjoy the experience.
The Farmington native did not know which profession to pursue when she was in college, but she followed the advice of her sister and sister-in-law who suggested that she try hairdressing. Ms. Larsen eventually cut the hair of all the school's students. More »

AVON - After nearly 10 years at 45 East Main Street in Old Avon Village and almost 20 years in business in Avon, on July 6 children's hair salon Cuts for Peanuts will open the doors of a brand new salon at 41 East Main Street in Old Avon Village - right across the parking lot from its current location. A grand opening celebration is being planned for July 10th.
The new shop will be called "Cuts for Peanuts & Backstage Design." Owner Sally Larsen and her team of children's hairstyles will continue delivering excellence for which they have become known. From sculpting babys' first haircut to keeping current with the latest styles for toddlers to tweens to coifing teens and adults, the staff at Cuts for Peanuts understands families' hair needs and has extensive knowledge about the prevention and treatment of lice and other hair and scalp issues.
Cuts of Peanuts also specializes in serving children with special needs, such as those with Autism. The new salon will be furnished with a special chair designed to make haircuts less traumatic and more comfortable for children with Autism.

It’s because of customers that they’re celebrating their 10th anniversary.
“Without your support, this wouldn’t have been possible,” the e-mail says. “To show our appreciation, we would like to offer you this coupon for your next visit. More »
