I quickly cut Audrey's bangs on Wednesday night after bathtime. When we were finished I lifted her off of my bathroom counter and I headed downstairs to take care of dinner dishes. I recall about halfway down the stairs thinking - "I should put those scissors away." But I was more intent on the kitchen and so I ignored the thought.
Fast forward 45 minutes. I discover long blonde locks littering my bathroom floor. I review in my head. I cut 1/4 inch of bangs. I left the scissors on the counter. I see 4 inch lengths of hair. A lot of them. I shout "AUDREY!!!!"
It wasn't pretty. She cut all of what she could reach on the sides and the back was left long. Like a mullet. On Thursday I took her to a friend's house who is a hairstylist. Much better. Audrey was very sad when she looked in the mirror and all her hair was gone. Maybe she will remember that feeling next time? Maybe I will put the scissors away too? She's better now. And I like her little fairy hair cut.
I remember having to do that to Elena when she was about 4-it was a sad day for both of us. Just this week she wanted me to chop off her long hair up to her chin-another sad day, but it's cute like Audrey's and she's happy-hope your little girl is, too! She's a doll!
ReplyDeleteI think it worked out great jill. Audrey has a cute little face like yours so short hair seems to fit her well. We are excited to see you soon!
ReplyDeleteI like her cute fairy cut. Good job Audrey! Good job Jill's friend! That happens to me so often- I get a prompting- ignore it- then regret it haha
ReplyDeleteJillo, I hate to say this but I love the new "do"! I think that it really suite her teeny frame and features and I would be relieved that I no longer have the matted nest in the back to deal with each morning if I were you. (or Greg) Just tell her to think fairy and rent HOOK and show her Tinkerbell.
