I reviewed how to cut boys hair on a few websites.
Then I gathered my scissors, a comb, and a jar of water. I set him up in the highchair and turned on on a little Curious George. And I started clipping. He was slightly squirmy, but for the most part it was really going well.
And then oops - one snip too short in the front.
So I did what was only natural and continued to chop away.
Yikes!
I'm not a perfectionist and I'm not a very picky person. Those two qualities came in handy in this situation.
It's just hair.
Good thing he's only two because he doesn't give a darn.
Secretly I think he's really proud of it.
I suspect this because his excitement escalated to a significantly high level.
This is what I call a Don't Do IT Yourself haircut.
SB, that is hysterical. I gave Porter a haircut right before Paul was born and it did not turn out very well either. Every time I see one of his "big brother" pictures it makes me never want to give another homemade haircut again:) I need to check out some of those websites.
ReplyDeleteI'm laughing so hard I'm in tears, SB.
ReplyDeletethat is quite a haircut!
good thing he's so cute. :)
Ha! This is too good!
ReplyDeleteHe's still a charmer... just with much shorter hair! :)
Haha! You are so brave. :) I am SO much of a perfectionist that I don't think I would even attempt it. I should probably start saving money now in case I have a boy someday. I will just have to pay for lots of haircuts!
ReplyDeleteHe is adorable. Somewhere I have a photo of you when you styled your own hair. (As a kid, you were a determined DIY stylist with clothes, hair, and others.) You were precious and so is he!
ReplyDeletejust wait until he tries to give himself a haircut! i had a nice little bob when i was four! that last picture is priceless!
ReplyDeleteoh I love this!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's so cute. Had you not told me, I'd never have guessed it was an "at home" cut. I think just the fact he sat STILL long enough for you to cut is worth being happy over!
ReplyDeletelove it!
ReplyDeleteUm, yeah, I know the feeling. I had to rush everyone to the closest barber (20 minutes away) praying I would make it there before they closed to fix my buzzed mess. I actually thought S.S. looked cute in his pictures!
ReplyDeleteI love reading your blog and this made me laugh hysterically!!
ReplyDeleteHILARIOUS!!!! Buzz it off!
