Hair Drama

Aside from her standard bang-trim, I’ve allowed Elayna’s hair to grow into an unruly mass of brunette shag.  It doesn’t curl, she hates brushing it, and there’s a finite 5-minute window everyday if I hope to style it (right after she wakes up).  Today, I threw up my hands in surrender:  we’re getting it cut!

I’ve always been curious about ‘Cool Cuts 4 Kids’ and took a chance that Elayna might even enjoy her haircut.  They have TV’s!  They sit in cute little cars!  Her stylist even has a 2-year old of her own!  But Elayna was not tricked by the ploy to allow someone to touch her hair.  She wavered between unwilling compliance (after bribed with gummy snacks) and sheer terror for the long 15-minute haircut.  Luckily, Ms. Jane was SUPER fast and great at cutting a resistant, squirmy child.  I love the  new look!
