Aiden was very upset when we told him that his third haircut hadn't gone so well....
I tried to tell him that if we just style it with the side swoop no one would notice and it would be just fine, but I don't think I convinced him.
He may be right. Regardless, he will probably be wearing it to daycare tomorrow so hopefully the other babies don't say mean things.
Here's the thing.....we gave Aiden haircut #2 just before Christmas. All we did was trim the front so that he could see and so that he would actually have eyes in Christmas pictures. It worked out really well so I figured that's what we would do again. However, last time we sat him in the highchair....this time we decided to do the styling in the bathtub...where no one had a good angle and it was hard to keep Aiden sitting still. And so.....(see picture #1).
Better luck next time. And by luck I mean we'll be using the highchair. And by next time I mean tomorrow when we attempt to fix the uneven mess we made.
In other hair-worthy news, Aiden officially uses conditioner at every bath now. I held off for nearly 9 months....not quite sure why....but the back of his hair turns into a bird's nest from where he sleeps on it and mats it down while in the car seat. It's been much less ratty since I started using the conditioner, but I've also added detangler to my shopping list. He's happy that we have lots fewer knots to work out.....if only I could convince him (and myself!) this haircut is going to turn out just fine....
