Well It finally happened...

I have been doing Hair for over 18 years now. I have talked with my girls about mommy's salon, mommy's scissors, mommy's hair stuff.
I thought they understood...Until I got home yesterday and found this...
Gracie had cut, CUT!! her bangs off.
Right to the scalp right in the middle of her head.
There is no hiding this.
She gave herself a reverse mohawk, her own cowlick.
And she is happy about it!!! I, on the other hand, was not happy!

Devon was about 4 when she cut her own hair... She cut her bangs & a little bit on the side. She came downstairs SO proud of herself. "Look Mamma, I cut my bangs!" It was hard to not yell at her... She was really beaming! I told her how beautiful she was and warned her of using scissors without Mommie... She did a good job actually on her bangs, the side of her hair you could see scalp...
She had to get a butch cut the next day. It took almost a year & 1/2 before it was normal length again...

Gotta love'em!

Shan,
All of my kids cut their own hair. If you remember, Andrew cut MINE when I was sleeping?!? All you can hope for is that they leave yours alone, and that the other 2 cut theirs during summer break and NOT just before class pictures. But all in all, you have to admit....."That this IS the best stuff!!!"
Love,
Meeka
