I’ve been cutting Stephen’s hair at home for the past two-and-a-half years because he cries like the dickens whenever I take him to the salon. It doesn’t matter if it’s an adult’s or kid’s salon, he just can’t handle it. I know he doesn’t like the electric razor but scissors aren’t exactly safe either if he can’t commit to sitting still. Anyway, I suppose I’m saving some money too by cutting his hair at home. His hair doesn’t look so bad now that I know how to layer it a bit. Even so, a flight attendant once asked if his mommy cut his hair with a bowl. What the @#!

Here’s what every hairdresser wishes they could do to children who won’t behave themselves while getting a haircut. Not far from the truth either. A hairdresser once admitted to me that he did not like to cut children’s hair because none of them could sit still long enough. Of course, this guy charges over $100 USD per haircut so I doubt he’s seeing too many kids anyway!
