Day 71/365: Barber shop quartet

[nanila]

Keiki in the barber's chair, reflected in the mirror grinning with glee as the bloke and Humuhumu look on and the barber wraps him in a red checked cloth.

This weekend, Keiki had his first haircut. Well, his first haircut that was not administered by Daddy and/or Mummy. It was by far the best hair-cutting experience he's ever had. There were no tears, there was no screaming and he did everything the barber asked him to. He really enjoyed it, and not just because he was promised a lolly by the barber at the end. I am immensely relieved that I will never again have to wield a pair of sharp scissors next to his ears while he howls his lungs out.


Check out this cool dude and his spiky gelled 'do.

Next step: The first time he tries cutting it himself. =:o}

I'm hoping we're still a few years off that yet!

Awww, too cute :)

[nanila]

It looks very sharp around the back and the ears. For the first time ever. :P

Very cool look there Keiki :)

[nanila]

Thank you! He didn't like the hair gel much once he worked out that it made his hair all hard, and insisted that daddy rub it all out.

Glad it went so well! He looks super cool.

[nanila]

Me too - what a relief! He seems to like his sharp look. :)

Nice one!

[nanila]

Yes! It's one of those small things that will make life much more pleasant for all of us.
