The First, Not So Good, Expensive Haircut

Before I get started with the haircut blog I need to apologize to my faithful blog readers. I am sorry that I have been HORRIBLE about blogging. I am not sure I really have an excuse as to why I have not blogged. I would like to pretend that I have some awesome story of how crazy things have been and that is why I have not blogged but, the truth of the matter is that I am lazy. Nothing interesting nothing fantastic I just have not made myself sit down and blog. This is also the reason I have only scrapbooked Noah's first month of life and he is soon to be 18 months.

First Haircut
Okay, so way back in November right before Thanksgiving I finally decided it was time to cut Noah's hair. His bangs were in his eyes and I did not want Thanksgiving pictures with his hair like that.

Here is the before picture:

I called Cool Cuts for Kids and made an appointment. I called them one because it is right by Brian's work and two I thought as the name of the store states it would be cool. It was pretty neat. They had lots of toys for kids to play with and the chair they sat Noah in was a taxi cab. He really did not mind the hair cut at all. He was very excited to be in a car but his did not have a steering wheel and the one next to him did. I was very impressed that there was no crying and only a little bit of moving.

Happy in my car =)

Holding real still for the scissors.

Being very still.

So happy especially since it is all over.

Not So Good Haircut

About an hour after we got home Brian said "Noah's hair looks funny". I didn't really pay any attention to that statement. The next day while Noah was playing I said "I think his bangs are uneven". Upon further inspection by the two of us (and why it took us especially me so long to notice I am not sure) his haircut was not so good. I know it must be hard to cut a one year old's hair but I got it cut to look good in pictures and now it was going to be even worse.

Expensive Haircut

WOW!! Never once did I ask what the haircut would cost because never once did I think it would be over $10.00 dollars. First, let me say that all they did was trim his bangs and trim the back of his hair. I do not even consider this a haircut really. It cost us $20.00 dollars. Yes, you read it correctly we paid $20.00 for Noah to get a trim. The cost of the haircut became even more painful once we realized that is was not so good. I did wait a while before telling Brian the cost of the haircut because, I knew he would not be happy and I was right. So, to appease him I said now I know why Amber cuts every one's hair herself. To which Brian replied, "Can she teach you how?"
