SHEAR MAGIC: Owners of American Falls’ Sam’s Family Cuts opens child-centered hair salon in Pocatello
POCATELLO — A couple who own the beloved Sam’s Family Cuts in American Falls are expanding their hair salon services to Pocatello with the opening of their second location and business, Smiles & Styles Kids Cuts. The new salon, which officially opened early last month at 1023 Yellowstone Ave., Suite N, promises a family-oriented experience where members of the whole family can swing by to get a stylish trim in one place. Sam Hanini, who owns the two salons with his wife, Jeri Campbell-Hanini, explained that the Pocatello expansion offers haircuts to both adults and children, although they are especially equipped to provide a good hair-trimming experience to youth. “Smiles & Styles Kids Cuts has been such a special journey for me,” Hanini said. “I truly love creating a place where kids can feel comfortable, have fun, and actually look forward to getting their haircuts. I know that a haircut can sometimes feel like a big experience for a little one, so my goal is always to make each child feel safe, happy, and celebrated.” With cartoons flickering on nearby televisions, race car, jeep and fire truck seats for young kids, and gifts and treats handed out at the end
