I think 16 months is too young to be afraid, as John doesn't understand that scissors cut and that cuts are owies. He was serious and cautious (maybe because there was another toddler boy terrified and screaming bloody murder the whole time), but didn't cry or seem fearful at all. John got to sit in a fire engine chair, which was perfect considering our adventure just last night.
Looking very concerned about his new haircut:
It's really not as short and nerdy as it looks in that picture. There the hair was still wet (and I think there was some hairspray in the water mixture too). Anyway, my hope is that now I can maintain the shape of the professional haircut.
So precious!! What a face!!
ReplyDeleteI am sure you will be able to maintain it just fine.

Handsome boy!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE THE LOOK!!! so very sweet!
ReplyDeletei remember when John Paul was, hmmm, he must've been 15 -16 mo, when he got his first cut [yeah - blonde and curls...i just couldn't do it!!]. I was just beaming, that my *first* son was such an angel. I had no problems taking him to the hair cuttery - it was even enjoyable, considering how calm and cute he was. That is until "hell day". Something "clicked" in his little head and he was crazy screamin' child!!
So, I bought a Flowbee, some clippers and the rest is history!! Now, all three boys are at the hands of "mom's home cuts"!! Hahaha
Again - i love John's furrowed brow!!
