Amelia’s First Haircut!

20 Apr

My baby isn’t even 8 months old yet and we’ve already given her her first haircut.  Well, actually second….I cut off her rat-tail at around 4 months.  Why do my children have weird hair-growing patterns?!?!  But we finally got tired of having to deal with her sideburns (aka Amish man/Rabbi curls). I had no problem hiding them under massive bows and headbands, but she is kind of getting to that age where she pulls them off faster than I can put them on.  Which results in a major case of the fly-aways….

Which proves to be a big problem on windy days!!

So we took her in for her first salon haircut.  We see Ms. Kelly in town (and looooooove her!).  She is great with the kids, and Jayna loves going to see her because she can watch her beloved Beauty and the Beast while getting her hair trimmed.  Amelia did awesome…she too watched Disney while Kelly trimmed away.  She held really still and smiled the whole time!

It’s amazing how just trimming the sides made her look so different!  Isn’t she a cutie?!?!

And hopefully this little trim will stimulate her hair growth all over her head….evenly!!!  In the meantime, she still has enough hair for us to continue playing Salon at home too!
