Social stories are specially designed tools that help autistic children understand routines, events, or changes in their lives. They offer a structured and visual way to reduce anxiety, increase predictability, and support emotional wellbeing – especially during situations that can be overwhelming or distressing.
 
In Toby Needs a Haircut, Toby is due for a trim – but he finds haircuts stressful. The sounds, sensations, and changes to his appearance make him feel anxious. Thankfully, his dad and hairdresser Simon work together to create a calm, sensory-friendly experience just for him. Toby is allowed to sit on the floor, wear headphones, and bring his iPad – all things that help him feel more in control.
 
This gentle story supports children who struggle with sensory environments, offering reassurance that haircuts can be done in a way that feels safe and respectful. Ideal for home, school, or therapy settings.
