I was excited to buy this for my 2 year old as I had a play doh 'monster' barber shop when I was young, however, 2 is a bit too young to be able to really use this. It is good, but the reality is that a lot of the accessories are actually quite fiddly and difficult for a 2 year old to make use of, such as the moulds for moustaches, scissors for cutting the hair, etc. Also, it is a bit tricky to clean after use as you have to use the accessory to push individual bits of play doh out of the hair-holes to properly clean up. That said, it is easier to tidy up than other play doh sets, and it is fun and I'm sure my daughter will enjoy it more as she gets more dexterous with her hands. I would recommend, but for 3 year olds or older.

I bought this for a 3 year old but I wanted this as a kid so had to play with it. This is really hard to use. The handle to wind the playdoh hair out is very hard to turn, on top of this you need to hold the base down. If you want to put the hair styling covers on you will need to develop a third hand to hold it still as it can't fasten on. Great novelty but as the adult you will spend large amounts of time with the tool to pop the bits stuck in the holes out so the kid doesn't have all the colours mixed with in a day!

My four year old granddaughter loves it, especially as, with childish dedication, you can produce tartan hair.
