First Hair Cuts

Both girls decided this week that they wanted their hair cut! We have asked them a few times before but they have never been interested so we didn't push it. One of Lily's friends has cute, short hair and she told Lily you don't have to brush your hair as much and Lily was sold. We took them after preschool the other day to a children's salon. Rosy wanted to go first!

She thought it was so funny to lean her head to the side.  She is still showing us she can do it. 

Darling little flip out.  You could hardly see the hair on the floor it was so fine and wispy.

I thought I might cry when Lily's got cut but I was so excited for her to do such a brave thing!

She put it all in pig tails first and braided one long braid for us to save.  Lily didn't even look up from her toy box when she started cutting. 

She was worried her friends wouldn't recognize her without her long hair but we reassured her they would!

She giggled when she could see the end of her hair so close to her face

And just like that she has short hair!  The next morning I had forgotten and it surprised me to see her!  They both look darling and brand new!

At the salon she said you have to have at least 9 inches to donate the hair. 

Lily has 14 to donate!
