The young lad is dressed in Tzitzit and Kipah and everyone, men and women, takes a turn at cutting his hair while leaving peyot. The honor of cutting the first lock of hair is given to a holy person or rabbi. Others have the custom of honoring a Kohen and then a Levite with the first and second snips. Grandparents and parents are next in line, followed by all the invited guests.
Obviously, a Jewish function is not complete unless someone is honored to speak some words of Torah.
