Hair cutting 101

Photobucket So SS had her first big haircut last night. Well...let me touch on that first...it was her first official haircut...when she was about 5 months old Scott cut about 10 hairs off her head and thought I would not notice....I have been scarred for life about this and consider that her first haircut that I missed. That's another blog:)
So Scott and I have been in debate for several months about her hair and whether or not it needed a little trim. The original hair that she had when she was born was getting a little long and she had new growth underneath. I felt that it was fine with a bow in her hair but agreed that it looked a little scraggly when she took the bow out...which is often. I really was NOT up for cutting her hair but Scott was growing more and more agitated with it and his little comments finally brought out the scissors.
So last night we decided to cut her hair. I will be honest and tell you that it was not a pleasant experience at first as I was fighting tooth and nail to avoid this. I just for some reason did not feel that it was necessary BUT Scott was reeeaaly wanting it. We bickered over how to cut her hair and I would say "she is going to look like a boy" and Scott would say "she is not just cut it."
....I needed a nerve pill but I am sure that some of this is prego hormones.....
So we sat SS in the sink and cut away...she really did good and to be honest her hair turned out just fine. I can deal bc we can still get a bow in her hair but most of all Scott is no longer nagging about her hair and today I have heard "Sarah Scott your haircut looks so cute" about 15 times. Its done and daddy is a happier man...I guess that is all that matters right?!?!

  1. She looks like she had a good time! :o) Great idea to stick her in the sink...I will have to do that next time for Kellen! Did you save some of her hair? The things we do as parents...sometimes I think we are so silly! :o)

  3. I can only imagine how you felt with this haircut, knowing how much you tweak your own hair!! I can just see you waking up tomorrow and grabbing the scissors and trimming Sarah Scott's hair some more!! She looks gorgeous as always!!! Such a momentous occasion! I wish Wyatt had enough hair to cut!!
