The Cut

I knew it had to be done....

I really didn't want to as I remembered what happened the first time around with your brother.

I knew it just might never be the same.

But it was time.

Some comments in the store... the constant brushing the hair aside.

I knew it was time to cut Ryder's hair.
Pre-Hair Cut on a Good hair day

But don't worry- it was just a trim

I am keeping those curls around as long as possible.
I would say I did not too shabby of a job for a girl with no training, some scissors and a wiggly toddler.

  1. He looks so handsome. I have to say though, my heart sunk when I saw you take that first big chunk off the top of his head. Wow!

    What a sweet little face. I would have had a hard time cutting those curls at all!

  3. He is such a doll! You really did do a great job. And I seriously can't imagine having kids with curls - my kids all have stick straight hair!

  5. Mimi is right! A total win! And you are very brave. I cut girl bangs, and I don't even do that anymore. They want pros now. Psssh! Whatever.

  13. Ohhhh I remember how this feels!!! Lexie had beautiful curls that we let grow all down her back, but eventually it began to look funny with straight hair on top and curls at the bottom so we cut it. I took about 100 pictures before we did though. :o) I think Ryder still looks just as cute as he did pre-hair cut! And good for you for doing it yourself!!

  21. You did a great job! I love his curls and how you reigned them in! My 3-year-old has needed a haircut for a long time and I've botched it a few times, so his hair is pretty long right now. I need to try again. Thanks for the motivation!
