lookin' sharp

June isn't especially fond of barrettes. Without them she looked a bit disheveled (if you need evidence of this, just take a look at the recent Locopops post), so Adrienne and I agreed it was time for her first hair cut. We considered taking her to the toddler salon, or wherever the stylish 19-month-old set get their hair cut, but we decided it was a necessary parental rite of passage for us to give her her first hack job. I tried to contribute by googling "cutting curly toddler hair," but that was of little help because most every website said, "take your child to a professional." We simply weren't having it.

Adrienne was all business and pulled out all the stops to ensure success. She gave June a balloon, some frozen Mango to enjoy, and even a cartoon to watch. After dampening Junie's hair, she began her artistry using a $7.99 pair of Conair hair cutting scissors from Target. And artistry it was. She truly did a bang-up job. June doesn't look demented in the least. Nice work A.

Here are some action shots and the satisfied customer several minutes later...
