With the exception of two or maybe three times over the past four years, I have always been the one to cut Caelan's hair. I love his hair- I love the longer layer on top. Well, he has a huge swirl in the back/on his crown and two or three major cowlicks in the front. So when I was giving him a trim right before Easter, I was having a difficult time getting parts of it even. It would be fine one way but then when I combed it another way, it was crooked. So Matt said, well why don't you just buzz cut it. I knew before I did it that I was going to regret it. But I did it. I buzzed it. Matt didn't think I was going to actually do it. I CRIED. It look AWFUL! And even though a lot of folks said it was cute, when I look back I still think it is the worst thing in the world. He didn't look like my son... I didn't recognize him. And I didn't like that.
So here I am right afterwards (excuse the pj's/bum look) and I am nearly in tears.
The boys were obviously ok with it?
And you can see in his profile- he also has sections where his hairline is higher up so it just looked.... TERRIBLE!!!
And everyone said, "Oh it will be so easy to take care of!" Well, sorta- to wash and comb? Yes. But as it grew out- it was a mess. It didn't grow out well and has taken a LONG time to start looking "normal" again. So again I say... never, ever, EVER again.
