For a start his father losing his patience with the child and yelling at him will not resolve the problem at all. Has he had his hair cut before and was there a problem at that time could help you find the answer.
Also instead of giving him toys, the family are better off not giving him any until he gets his hair cut. Children have to learn that there are 'rewards' and 'punishments' and to give him a gift just so he will get his hair cut is not acceptable. This is what makes a child spoilt and he will always expect to be 'rewarded' for everything that he does.
Should be fun times when he starts school though. :)
