Rapunzel, Rapunzel, Let your hair down...!




For those of you who know me IRL, you know that I 'prefer' shorter hair. It's not that I don't like long hair, I just don't hold it in high regard. It may have something to do with my mother. I'm not sure. Just saying. (sorry mom. HAD to put that in!!)






I have never wanted my daughters' hair to be long. (once again, personal preference). In fact, I cut both girls short until they start to ask for longer hair. Then I abide, as long as there is no hair in the eyes. ( oh no! I AM my mother.) I also encourage selecting whatever 'style' of hair is wanted. -which often results in one braid, and one pigtail. Or something of the sort.



My friend Karen, whose 4yr old daughter has GORGEOUS LONG hair!!, had a 'situation'. Kira decided to shorn some locks. Albeit disheartening for Karen (who, I think, has never cut Kiras hair), I have to admit I chuckled at the 'small' (to me) amount of hair that was lost. (sorry Karen--still friends??)

She COULD have pulled a "Hannah"!!








Now THAT'S what I call a haircut!!

Oh my goodness Amy!!!! Hannah did quite a number on her bangs?? I am in stitches, those pictures are hilarious! Are you sure it was scissors she used and not Daddys shaver??

Up until now I had never cut Kira's hair. I was going to wait till we returned to Canada before doing anything. However, my ambitious hairdresser will now be sporting some lovely bangs. I am sooo thankful that she did not tackle the back of the head. Yah, you are right,it is only hair. By the way, you should see how long Calia's has grown.

Now THAT is what I call a haircut!!

I love a little short bob on toddlers and little girls!! -Probably because that is exactly the style our little girl had when she was a little one! :)

Funny post today Amy!!

I think you have something with this "mom" factor. Mine uses clippers to cut her hair. Any chance your mom is a nurse... I find they HATE hair and pass the gene down.
