REAL haircut

Today Luke got his first REAL haircut! "Real" because it was finally done by someone other than me!

I searched around for a "kid" hair cutting place, but the closest one I found online was in Franklin. Rather than making the trek over there, we just decided to take Luke to Sports Clips so that he and Andie could get haircuts together.

Just as I thought, Luke was pretty terrified. He sat in my lap and before the woman even picked up her scissors, Luke started screaming "NO NO NOOOOO!!!!". It was definitely a rocky start, but after a good solid 5 minutes of crying and shouting, he f-i-n-a-l-l-y started to cooperate. He calmed down by looking at dad getting his hair cut and seeing how "good" dad was being. haha!

Also, getting a sucker helped sweeten the deal a bit. It gave him something else to concentrate on rather than the strange woman invading his personal space.

In the end, the haircut looked GREAT! She gave him a good trim above his ears and in the back, but kept the top long. He looks sharp!

I don't have a really good pic of the new haircut itself, but this is a funny pic of the little guy enjoying his sucker on the way home.

  2. Awww....mom, how could you let someone put a sharp object that close to my head!?! Hehe....we give Andrew a 'tottipop' (lollipop) every time he gets his hair cut and by the end, there is hair all over the lollipop and sticky slober on his hands and outfit...nice!
