Where has all the hair gone?

This is Brianna at the beginning of the day. Isn't she pretty?! Don't you just love her pretty LONG hair? I know I do. I know Daddy does. I know Brianna does too. I have to remind myself at times that she is only three...and although three year olds are smart, sometimes they still do dumb things...heck, I still do dumb things (and I haven't been three for a LONG time)!

As I tried to reassure her father after he told me he was sick to his stomach over HIS loss, it could have been worse! Even now he says he wants to cry when he sees the before picture.

Brianna and I went on a date to get her hair FIXED. I probably could have done it myself but I couldn't bring myself to make the first cut off the length of the hair she still had in the back. We'll see how fast it grows back.

At Cool cuts 4 Kids the hairdresser said just the other day a little girl had come in after cutting her hair too, only this little girl didn't leave anything where she cut. Apparently she was giving herself bangs, cut it all the way to the scalp. I was counting my blessings at that time!

I have been wanting to cut her hair in a cute little A-line bob but really couldn't bring myself to cut that much off...so, she helped me with my dilemma. We just can't do the A-line right now till the spot she cut right over her ear grows out some...

And wouldn't you know it, just a couple of days ago my friend and I were talking about little girls who cut their hair one too many times and what should be done about it. She had mentioned that she heard one mother actually shave her little girl's head after the second cutting incident. A little brash, I thought, and was grateful my little girls wouldn't do such a thing!! You'd think after all my experience I would know better than to say/think such a thing. Tisk tisk tisk!

This is Brianna at the end of today. Isn't she a pretty little three year old girl?? Don't you just love her pretty blue eyes? I know I do.

Oh, how sad!! She looks scared to death in her after self hair cut picture. All three of my kids have cut their own hair. Tyler gave himself a reverse mohawk with the clippers when we lived in Vegas, and the other two have given themselves random haircuts (never that turn out nice). Her long hair was beautiful, but she is still adorable with her new short do.

She is beautiful!

It sounds like you've done a good job keeping the right perspective!

I love the sequence of things. And in the end it all worked out. I love the bob. I think it looks better than her long hair. But then again EVERYONE looks better after they leave the store. It is the next day that is the test. My favoite picture is the pouting one.
