Re: DOES NOT COOPERATE IN HAIR CUT

[Guest guest]

For both my kids, magnesium deficiency caused this issue. They wouldn't let us

touch their hair anywhere close to their ears during hair cuts. Supplementing

magnesium citrate has greatly helped overcome this issue. Hope this helps!

Not liking/tolerating haircuts is very common among kids on the spectrum, often

due to sensory issues (noise of the scissors/clippers, shininess/flash or cold

of the scissors, smell if at barber shop, etc.) Does he have auditory

hypersensitivity? Handle Institute has some exercises to help deal with sensory

issues that might prove helpful. Check http://www.handle.org/index2.html or The

Hello,

My four year old whose hair test shows he has lead and arsenic toxicity, when we

try to cut his hair under the ears on his temple, he resists. He does not

cooperate and does not want us to touch under his ears on his temple. Is it due

to toxicity?

Really? My son is horrible! (I guess that just adds one more symptom to my

suspicion of ASD.) It takes 4 adults to hold him down to get a haircut.

It helps my 8 year old son with ASD when he can see his 14 year old brother get

his hair cut first. Then when it is the 8 year old's turn, as long as he can

see himself in the mirror while his hair is being cut, combed, etc., he doesn't

get scared. Sometimes he likes to have a small hand mirror he can hold onto

also. Good luck.

My son didn't like sissors, but he is doing fine with cutting machine, really

important to find something that child likes and promice he will have it when

its done, may be certain time or place also important, I cut hair at home

myself, he probably wouldn't be as easy in a public place

Not here. We have tried everythig and only once did it work to have him watching

his personal DVD player. The other times, it did not even work. It is torture

for us all.

Still takes four people at home also.

We are going to try again since the removal of casein, but I am not convinced

that will help any.

He has sensory issues with washing hair and face also.

I am convinced, now, this is part of his autism. We do not have an official

label yet, but if it walks/acts/looks and talks like a duck, then it must be a

duck.

This was most definitely sensory - adrenal related with my son. Haircuts were

traumatic, accompanied by screaming fits, having to hold him down. The

scissors, the noise....Finally, Jan on this board educated me about adrenal

problems and the wonders of ACE. It used to be a haircut or using the food

processor would send my son running, hands over the ears, screaming under the

kitchen table like a war vet with PTS. The wind on his face would drive him

nuts even. After adding ACE in sufficient doses, it was like someone flipped a

switch or something, one day we just sat him down at the kitchen table for a

hair cut, braced ourselves for the inevitable screaming, and he just laughed and

watched a dvd while we cut his hair. We were amazed. Now he sits beautifully

and we can even take him for professional haircuts. He just turned five.

I used to cut my son's hair at night while he was asleep He is now 6.5 and

we were able to get his first hair cut that was by a professional and wasn't

absolute torture. This was his 3rd haircut by a professional- the first was

terrible " the woman who cut his hair said to me " bless your haeart " - refering to

his behavior- she felt bad for me. The second was better but he shook and

screamed the whole time. So in between I cut his hair at night. Finally we

gave it another shot and he wasn't thrilled- kept asking " okay, just one more

minute? " " done now? " trying to get down. But it was actually a decent

haircut and I wasn't shaking and nauseous when it was over. Yea!! One small

step for the kid! There's hope

For us it is not just the screaming. That is not the bad part. He literally has

to be held or he is gone. He sounds as if he is in pain with blood curdling

screams, squirming to the point we are scared he is going to break a limb. He

is very strong.

This used to happen for us just *brushing* hair. I would almost have to sit on

her.

Try EFT - I used to drive one hour, one way, and pay some good money to learn

how to do it correctly. It really can be applied to several different areas of

your life as well -- trauma, abuse, addictions, anxiety -- and for physical

issues, too.

It helped me immensely, so I started using it with the kids, and I have used it

with several emotionally charged kids, like my nieces, with great success. A

good thing to do, if you often has stressful days, is just go through the day's

events while tapping. The brain is usually positive (especially with little

ones) and so you will often have a positive affirmation regardless of whether or

not it is said out loud. I did this with Savannah after school before bed.

Check out the video, as it will make much more sense. It isn't the main site's

video, but I like the guy
