Have your kids cut their own hair? Mine have…. A RECORD number of times. The Reader cut a HUGE chunk of her hair in the bang area (no she didn’t have bangs before that) down to the scalp when she was 6. Yup 6… The first time we had a hair cutter. I was so mad and totally overreacted and vowed to not get that upset over something so trivial again! So the NEXT time it happened, Computer Boy cut off huge chunks of Lego Boy’s hair, I stayed calm. Since then the boys have each “trimmed” parts of their own hair. Then The Destroying Angel came along… She’s cut her own hair more times than I can count, seriously, lost track, over 5 times for SURE.
So the other day I was looking at Computer boy and realized that his hair looked ODD. Can you see it? No? Let’s take a closer look
Yup a HUGE chunk missing. But how??? The scissors are all locked up (The Destroying angel still finds a way) and he knows better at this point. So I asked him…
He SHAVED his head. He took my razor from the shower and shaved parts of his legs, arms and then decided to try it on his head! You can see he shortened a portion of the “bangs” on the left, but really dug in just shy of the center. UBER short. So in getting ready for back to school I took the clippers to his head, it was going to happen anyway. BUT we went MUCH shorter this time around, down to a #2. We’ve NEVER gone that short before. Hopefully he learned his lesson and now I need to find a new location for my razor!
