Hair Cuts

Rowan has always had what we affec­tion­ately called “Old Man Hair” — Really fine, wispy and eas­ily messed up. Recently it has got­ten too long for me to be eas­ily amused by spik­ing it up, so it was time for a hair­cut. Since it was to be his first hair­cut we were going to go to one of those salons for kids, but we arived to find that they had per­me­nantly closed their doors. Makes sense in this econ­omy, I guess. Declan was sad, he had talked about get­ting a hair­cut all morning.

So, we just fig­ured we’d do what we always do: Buzz ‘Em!

After! So handsome!

Rowan was quite unsure about the whole experience…

Before:

He did really well.

I’m sure the buzzing feel­ing on his head felt funny at first. About halfway through we had to stop to let him nurse so that he’d hold still for the rest of the “styling”.

Dur­ing:

After! Yay!

Look at all that beau­ti­ful hair! Declan and I had a con­ver­sa­tion about what to do with it. He wanted to wad it all up and put it in his lit­tle tin lunch­box, but I won out by telling him that the birds needed it. He thought it was really cool that the birds could use his hair to make nests out of. Hope­fully I can find a nest full of hair so he can see how his gen­eros­ity is being put to good use.
