Which part of “do not cut too much off” did she not comprehend?

And to think I paid for this?

That’s the last time I let an acrylic nail wearing, scantily clad, frosted-haired whore near my sons. Mark my words.

{It’ll grow back, right? RIGHT??}

no worries momma, it will grow back and then some. He is so cute, a bad hair cut still doesn’t – de-cute-ify him. he is adorable.

Oh dear!! It will definitely grow back but if it’s any consolation, they’re both wayyyy too adorable to have hair even factor into their cuteness.

oh dear! Take a picture from each horrible angle. Remind your son to scowl in picture. Then make a compilation/composite and print 8 x 10. Have it laminated and bring with you to the salon next time.
Now hide the camera so this haircut can no longer be documented!!

the only difference between a good hair cut and a bad haircut is two weeks…

I am sorry that I am laughing so hard. We’ve had so many bad haircuts. The worst part is when the salon says, “Would you like to come in and have her do it over?” Seriously? Let her touch my people again? Are they nuts?

Hahaha – my mom used to cut my hair horribly, but she wasn’t a hairstylist! At least you won’t have to get their haircut for a long time. And it’s really not bad at all!

Thankfully, with boys, the damage isn’t as long lasting. My advice, stay away from stylists/barbers with #1 and #2 buzz razors.

So funny. My wife is always worried that whenever I go to the hair stylist’s that she’ll end up chopping off all of my son’s curls. She never does, but my wife worries just the same.

This from the woman who literally changes her hairstyle every time she goes to the stylist’s!

Anyway, thanks for sharing and don’t worry, it will grow back!

OH sweetie.. it will grow back, BUT their haircuts look great! You just think it is too short because you are their mother! I am the same way, OH, my GOD. But? Our hairdresser listens to us. Because I’m there standing over him saying ‘not too short, not too short, oh yeah, did you hear me, not too short!!!” YOU KNOW WHO CUTS MY CHILDREN’S HAIR? MY MOTHER!!!!!!!!!!! I’ll get home from work, and see my baby running to me, missing his bangs! OH THE HORROR! I know how you feel…

See, this is why I am dreading the first haircut! They look perfectly adorable, but you’re the Mommy and it’s not what you wanted. And I would have called her an acrylic nail wearing, scantily clad, frosted-hair whore to her face, so you are a stronger Mommy than me.

Boys haircuts are going to send me to an early grave. If it’s not a bad haircut, then it’s 30 minutes of wrestling with a squirmy kid who doesn’t want clippers near his head. Either way, it’s a pain. And it never turns out they way I’d like. Lat time I gave my youngest a haircut, he peed on me. Gotts love it.

You know, the eyes, the eyes are the windows to the soul, and the eyebrows are, well, I guess they’re the valances, so the hair, really, when you think about it, is just crown molding. So, ultimately, it’s all about the eyes. Is all I’m sayin’. :)

Yep, it’ll grow. :) Both of my guys (son and Hubs) always go to SuperCuts and they usually come out great. Hubs’ came out really crooked once, though, and they were really nice about it when he went back to get it fixed (free of charge).

Is it just me, or do men almost always get WAY better customer service?
