Little girls all do it at some point right?

Yesterday the girls were down for their "rest/nap" it got a little too quiet. I decided to go check on them. I arrive to find ~S, Nique's daughter, with a pair of school safety scissors in her hand. Now mind you we are in the middle of a move, the boys room is down the hall from theirs. I am assuming the scissors came from the boys room. At ~S feet is hair and no small amount of hair. ~A turns and there is a 6-8 inch butcher job of her locks.




Just about that time Nique comes and realizes that the hair is really too dark to be ~A hair. So not only did ~A get cut but ~S hair got cut. Nique was bawling and pretty much unable to speak for about 3 minutes. Nique starts running her fingers through ~S hair, it's on the right side behind the ear and pretty choppy, a layer cut will fix it. Fortunately the overall length was left intact but still pretty devastating since her hair is just at her shoulders. Now ~A hair on the other hand is a different story. Her hair was past her shoulder blades to the middle of her back. The cut job was really upsetting to me, I know it's only hair. Prior to this ~A had had 2 trims in salons. Last fall she had cut some of her hair but not bad enough that it had to be fixed and she cut her bangs. But the back of her hair really hadn't been CUT yet. So we had to make a very unexpected trip to get this fixed because I couldn't fix this hair cut. When get to the salon she was all sad and didn't want to get in the chair. Once in the chair she sat perfectly still with the saddest look on her face. As the hair is being cut I look at her, tears are welling up in her eyes and two huge tears fall on to the drape. ~A is now sporting a very cute chin length bob. I don't think she will be playing hair salon anytime soon.





After we left the salon we went to get a treat for the two girls that didn't cut their hair.
