Goodbye Curls

As much as we loved Ben's little blond curls, we decided it was time for a haircut. His hair looked great fresh out of the bath and combed, but after a nap or later in the day, it was just a crazy mess and was getting close to a mullet. Not quite the look we were hoping for! So when we were in Orange County last weekend, we tried a new place, Cool Cuts for Kids, and the woman did an AWESOME job. She was so patient with Ben and continued to cut his hair through the crying, toy throwing and wiggling. We were so proud of Ben for sitting by himself for the first time - this was his 3rd haircut, but the first time he sat on his own. He refused to wear the apron, hence the shirtless pictures afterwards - there was hair all over his shirt!!! Hahaha. We think he looks quite handsome with his new do.

BEFORE

Look at those blond curls in the back!

Crazy mess!

Time to cut the long hair

Playing with the Legos before his turn

He loved the little play area for little kids

Highly recommend Cool Cuts for Kids

Ben's turn - he sat in the car all by himself

Jim distracting Ben with videos of himself

He seems OK so far

Oh no, he's not a happy camper

And AFTER

Of course she had to do the faux mohawk

What do you think?

He looks like a handsome BOY again!

Another successful haircut
