My First Haircut/Trim

Last weekend we decided to get Alexandra's hair cut. Its still slowly growing and looks like a mullet. Its not as bad as it used to be, but Im impatiently waiting for the hair on top of her head and sides to get longer. She has natural bangs that were getting a lil long and the back of her hair was growing unevenly. We took her first thing after breakfast last Sunday to Celebrity Cuts for Kids. The morning is her best time, so we wanted to make sure she was in the best mood ever. As we are walking in, we are stopped by a screaming crying boy that is being held down by his parents while getting his hair cut. Great! Perfect! Just what Alex needs to see before she gets her first hair cut. Of course Alex being the nosey one she is, walks up to the little boy, checking him out with a very puzzled look. We were able to distract her away from him to the toys, slide and other car chairs. She was able to pick out her own movie, which of course Disneys "Cars" was chosen as its one of her favorites. She also chose the pink Barbie jeep to sit in. As she watched the movie, the stylist put on a cape with a mermaid. Alex then started whining and lightly crying, reaching for Daddy to get her out. She settled down once the movie started and she had her paci and beary. She did really well, allowing the girl to trim the back of her hair and bangs. At first the stylist wanted to put layers in her hair, but I decided against it as I want her hair all one length. Plus its already thin enough. She also allowed the girl to blow dry her hair. She picked out two hair barretts that were placed in her hair. Over all she was perfect compared to some nightmare stories I have heard (and seen). It was not a long amount of hair cut, just mainly trimmed to get everything even. Now we are hoping this might boost her hair growth (but i have heard that just a myth).
Definitely time for a trimWaiting to leave, eating her "pish" crackers and watching cartoons
While waiting for the screaming kid to be done, she sat in some of the chairs. I thought PaPaw would like to see his granddaughter in a tractor She decided she wanted out, looking at Daddy and saying "Down"


Daddy keeping her entertained.
