Today I took Will to get his first haircut. He's only 11 months old and doesn't have a lot of hair, but for some reason he sprouted a mullet. A thin, wispy baby mullet. I decided it was time to chop off the party in the back.
So, we went to get his haircut. I took him to my salon. My hairstylist, Erica, cuts most of her clients' kids' hair and she does a pretty good job at it. And, she only charges $10 - can't get much cheaper than that at Super Cuts.
Will did really well - he didn't cry and he sat still for most of the cut. This primarily was because there was a random guy sitting in the chair next to Will getting his hair highlighted. Yes, I said highlighted - with foils and all. Will stared at him the entire cut. It was the perfect distraction.
The result? A perfect baby haircut. Erica didn't cut Will's hair too short nor did she shave it up too much in the back. She wanted to keep it "natural" looking, and I think the mission was accomplished.
All in all, it was a fun milestone (note highlight guy in picture below).
