Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow...

Both of my kids needed hair cuts in a BAD way, Boe more than Gage-being the control freak that I am, I usually take them. It wasn't bad when my sister Ashlee lived here, I never worried, but since she has moved, I have had to trust others to not butcher my kids. So, the last couple of weeks have been crazy and I haven't had time for haircuts. Neal offered to take them in with him. After giving him VERY specific instructions (especially in regards to Gage's hair) I conceded and let them go. Here is Gage a day before the haircut... And here he is AFTER the haircut. Needless to say, he was NOT a happy camper... Neal came home looking apologetic and told me that he had told the girl to trim about an inch off and trim the bangs-that's it. I guess that once she took Gage back, he was chatting up a storm and turning on the charm and she was eating it up. He was saying things like, "preferably, I like my hair long" and "actually, I am going to be six in just a few months" and stuff like that. He also invited her to his birthday party and she told him she'd be there unless she had to work. Hmmm... So, my conclusion is that she was enjoying her little customer too much and didn't want it to end after just one inch so she made it last for five! Oh, well, at least hair grows!
