"A Little Haircut"

Mar 30, 2010 20:10

Moira gave herself 'a llittle haircut' this evening before dinner.

At least it will grow back out, eventually. But it still makes me sad.

Oh dear, did Lily inspire her?

Yes, we believe so. Clearly we did not take the opportunity to have a serious discussion about not cutting your hair. We covered that it was only okay to cut paper and ribbons that we gave her for craft projects, but didn't specify that this means that you should not cut your own hair.

New discussion with no-self-haircutting slant conducted. Repitions of 'we only get our hair cut at the hair salon' ongoing.

When I was about Moira's age, I had hair to the middle of my back. Both my great grandparents died within days of eachother and the whole family was going to be in town. The night before the funeral, I chopped it to my scalp in a number of places. My mom is *still* mad at me for it 35 years later. LOL

My daughter did this two days before my wedding (in which she was the flower girl).

Oh no!

Oh, yes. My little fashionist has short flapper-ish hair.

:(

It will eventually all grow back.

Oh no. At least it's something you can work around.

My twin brother and I cut each other's hair (my bangs took a long time to recover) and my mother still tells the story.

I apparently cut my younger sister's hair three different times...

Whoops.

Oh my goodness. I dread when and if Brenna decides her baby brother needs a haircut. :(

At least it didn't happen before school pictures for Moira. Ours did and my mom had to barret my hair over the spot for pictures. She can laugh now about it, thank goodness.

That seems to be a thing kids do at about that age. It looks like it didn't turn out as badly as it might have. A quick trip to the salon and at least it can be transformed into something that looks intentional, even if it's shorter than you would generally prefer. On the plus side, short hair can be cute and easy to maintain on little girls.
