First Haircut

Caleb's hair. Oh his hair! I absolutely love it that C has his Daddy's curly hair. Before having Caleb, I would always think people were nuts talking about not wanting to cut their baby's hair for the first time. Why the big fuss? It'll grow back if you don't like it. Yeah, right! I see now what the big deal is...and it IS a big deal!

Caleb has a head full of hair, and the curls are really starting to take off except for the front. It's been long in the front for a while now, so we've been sweeping it over to the side to keep it out of his eyes. We just knew the front would start flipping, then we wouldn't have to cut it for a while longer. But...no flippage! So, off to the barber shop we went! I promised Caleb I wouldn't call it a salon. :)

Here are a couple of BEFORE shots. Now do you see why we always sweep it over to the side? The poor boy couldn't see!


Here are a couple of DURING shots. You see he's not a happy camper, BUT Tony said he did great because he was actually very very still. He was able to cut his hair super fast because Caleb didn't move around or put up a fight. Just fussed a tad. :)





Here's an AFTER shot of my son who can see again! Tony did a great job...super pleased with the way it turned out! It makes me sad to see him looking older now, but it had to be done. I guess this mom will have to get over it. I'm going to have to prepare myself to let go of some of the curls by the time his next haircut rolls around, because they'll be too long by that point - and we do not want a mullet! Baby steps, right?!

Our handsome fella.

We still have the curls!

  1. He is so precious! Parker hated having his hair cut so much that it's been 2mos. since we did it and he is really shaggy. But, Parker doesn't have those beautiful curls like Caleb does!
