Pigtails & Crewcuts will be celebrating its grand opening Thursday, April 5 from 2 p.m. – 5 p.m. Mount Prospect Mayor Irvana Wilks will be on hand for the ribbon-cutting celebration (and maybe even a haircut, while those scissors are in hand) at the Randhurst Village kids’ salon in Mount Prospect. Hopping entertainment will follow, as David Fisher, the Rock ‘N’ Rope Warrior, takes the stage and struts his Guinness Book of World Records-holding stuff.

The grand-opening discounts, freebies and celebration will continue through the weekend. The salon, which is currently open, will offer a free shampoo with each haircut, and staff will be available for sassy braids, colorful face painting and more. In addition, Tony Sacco’s Coal Oven Pizza will be handing out coupons for free kids’ pizza.

Here’s the schedule:
