FAQs
What age is this hairdresser set suitable for?
This set is recommended for children aged 3 years and older due to small parts. Adult supervision is advised.
What materials are used in this set?
The set is made from FSC-certified wood, ensuring it is sustainably sourced and environmentally friendly.
Does this set include real styling tools?
No, this is a pretend play set. The tools are made of wood and are designed for imaginative play, not for styling real hair.
How do I clean the wooden toys?
Wipe the toys with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or submerging them in water. Allow them to air dry completely.
Can the pouch be worn by children of different sizes?
The pouch has an adjustable strap, designed to be worn around the hips. It may fit most young children, but adult adjustment might be necessary.
What are the benefits of this toy for my child?
It promotes imaginative roleplay, stimulates fine motor skills, encourages creativity, and develops hand-eye coordination.
Is this set safe for children?
Yes, the set is made from eco-friendly wood and designed with safety in mind. However, adult supervision is recommended, especially for younger children.
Troubleshooting
Tool feels stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure the toy is not damp. If it is, let it air dry. Wooden toys can sometimes be sensitive to moisture. Gentle play should loosen it over time.
Pouch strap is too long or short.
The pouch is designed to be worn around the hips. Adjust the strap as much as possible. For very young children, adult assistance may be needed to secure it appropriately.
Minor scratches or wear marks appear.
This is normal wear and tear for wooden toys and does not affect functionality. For aesthetic touch-ups, very light sanding or a natural wood polish could be considered, but adult supervision is crucial.
