First Haircut

We finally did it! On Friday, we were playing at Kate's house and I looked at Grace and thought about how crazy her hair has become. It grew in naturally with a layered look. Some pieces much, much longer than others. The top was a lot shorter than the bottom, giving her a mullet look. The fact that much of the hair was baby-fine meant that it became frizzy easily and stuck out all over the place.

So, Saturday, Jeff and I took her to get it trimmed up. We wanted it to look the same, just more even and more controlled.

This is her before - notice how the bangs are all different lengths.



She did well during the cut. She didn't want us to sit in the chair, so I had to stand while the stylist trimmed her hair. She clung to me for dear life through the entire time. She didn't cry or make any sort of protest, but you could tell she wasn't too confident that this was a good idea.

Looking unsure of what was going on:


Clinging to mommy:


The view from the back - you can see how uneven it is. She cut about an inch to an inch and half off.



And here is what she looks like now:
