First "Real" Hair Cut

Friday, 3-26-10

Today, Amy got her first professional hair cut. I have to say her first “real” or professional hair cut due to Kurt cutting her bangs last Halloween. Needless to say, I was not thrilled that he did this and we have since talked that he is NEVER allowed to do this again…even if he was just trying to get Amy’s hair out of her eyes. I can laugh about it now, but at the time I must admit that I was not too pleased. Of course, one of the things that I was upset about was that I wasn't able to get a good picture. When I realized that he was serious about cutting her hair (despite my objections, I might add!), I grabbed my camera and did my best to get a picture. As you can see, the picture isn't that good but I think you also can see what kind of job Kurt did on cutting Amy's bangs. However, Amy’s hair grew and now you can’t even tell it happened (thank goodness!!).


So, today we went to a hair salon for little ones. I was a little apprehensive about the hair cut because I didn’t really want them to cut much of her hair. Amy has never really had a lot of hair and I didn’t want them to cut it short or give her bangs. I spoke with the lady who was going to cut Amy’s hair and explained my concerns. We agreed that she would even up the back by just trimming it a little and leave the rest of it alone. We talked about various things to do with her bangs, though I have tried most of them with little success, though I’m going to try again. Amy had a good time at the salon, especially going down the slide before and after she got her hair cut. Amy had her choice of chairs to sit in for her hair cut as we were the only ones there at the time. I was surprised when she choose to sit in the tractor chair rather than the duck or horse. At one point during the hair cut, Amy became upset when her hair was sprayed with water - I think she was caught by surprise. But, we were able to work through it and she recovered very nicely. Of course, the actual hair cut took less than five minutes. I’m not even sure I can tell that her hair was cut, but we survived the first real hair cut.
