Hayden’s First Haircut
Saturday I gave Hayden’s first haircut. It’s a good thing he’s too young to be embarrassed by its quality!
Before
During
After
Don’t worry, I saw that one long piece of bangs on his right and went back and got it—all too well, I’m afraid!
(Just to be perfectly clear: in July, I trimmed the hair above his ears and his bangs. I call this his first “trim,” and Saturday his first “haircut.” I saved some hair from both. I’m crazy like that.)

He looks adorable (and you did a great job with the haircut).

September 26th, 2007 at 8:53 amThe Boy had his first haircut at 5 months! It was hanging in his eyes already!
P.S. I’d save hair from both times too.
September 26th, 2007 at 9:00 amHe´s a real cutie and looks like you did a good job to me. I am glad you hit the 200 mark! I hit the 200 mark this week too. I really enjoy your posts even though I don´t always take the time to comment.

Aww, he’s too cute! And I think you did a great job! Becca is 20 months now and nowhere near ready for a haircut yet… One of these days!
September 26th, 2007 at 9:50 amAwww, he’s adorable, and so is his haircut. Kudos to you, I’d never dare try that myself.
September 26th, 2007 at 10:12 amThe best part of these pics is the marking pen on his forehead.
love it!
September 26th, 2007 at 10:27 amHe looks great! Mine had a mowhawk at 6 weeks. It stuck straight up from the back of his head. I had to cut it off. It was driving me crazy.
September 26th, 2007 at 11:05 amIt looks good! I just pull out the buzzer for my boys because I know nothing about using scissors to cut hair.
September 26th, 2007 at 11:25 amoh my goodness….aww that makes me want to cry!
September 26th, 2007 at 4:53 pmAwww! He’s so cute!
September 26th, 2007 at 5:23 pmWAY too cute
September 26th, 2007 at 8:32 pmYou did a great job!!! I’m glad I don’t have to tackle boy haircuts. Cutting a straight line is hard enough for me.
September 27th, 2007 at 8:01 amSo grown up! You did a very nice job - they are wiggly little critters at that age. And looks like you have a young budding Ar-teest : ) (LOVE the scribble on the forehead!)
P.S. I have something for you in my morning post today…

September 28th, 2007 at 5:40 pmIf only my 21 month-old needed a haircut! I envy Haden his longish locks!
