We'll See When it Dries

Anna's hair had really been bothering me.... I was told that in order to keep the curls at the bottom I needed to trim her hair when it was all on top of her head..... so I did!

And her curls are beautiful when there is some humidity in the air. And it hangs soo beautifully. But whenever I braided it there was always a good 3-4 inches that hung down from the end of the braid and just looked scraggly.... And when there isn't humidity, it's just scraggly at the bottom!!

Well after all the talk of haircuts/hairdos the last few days, Anna told me that she wanted me to cut her hair tonight.... ME???

So after her bath I cut her hair.... ohhhh... I did try to keep an angle and I desparately tried to have a straight line across the back....BUT...

we'll just have to see what it looks like when it dries.....

The BEST thing was that she WANTED her hair cut and although she did not stay as still as I needed her to, she was calm and excited about getting her hair cut. And in the end she said she liked it... so it was a good experince for her...

NOT for her Mommy... I'm so worried it 's not straight and will look BAD... but with some clips and braids it will be cute.....

And it's still pretty long.... I'd say wet it's half way down her back versus almost past her bottom...

I already told her that we'd let it grow for a little while and then maybe have to have someone cut it nicely for her, for Uncle Scott's wedding in Oct (if it doesn't look good)...

we'll see when it dries....
