Yay, that sounds so cool Mikaela!

Gremlins turned two on Tues and are still months, if not years, away from needing a haircut.

Maya had her first haircut at a special kids salon in Ponsonby, I can't for the life of me remember what it was called tho. ]]> Thu, 16 Oct 2008 20:46:16 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21612&PID=519400&title=babys-first-haircut#519400 <![CDATA[Baby’s first haircut? : Just to update this, it turns...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21612&PID=519345&title=babys-first-haircut#519345 Author: Mikaela

Just to update this, it turns out that Just Cuts will cut a baby/toddler's hair for the very first time for free! (as in, the baby has never had a haircut before).

We got it done today, and they had a little portable DVD player which sat in front of Alex while he was in the booster chair, and a wiggles cape which he loved too.

Oh, and they gave me a special envelope with a lock of his hair in it.

After the first haircut it's $12, so they told me.]]> Thu, 16 Oct 2008 19:52:21 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21612&PID=519345&title=babys-first-haircut#519345 <![CDATA[Baby’s first haircut? : His mullet is getting quite bad!...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21612&PID=518458&title=babys-first-haircut#518458 Author: myfullhouse

His mullet is getting quite bad! I noticed that it is actually get long at the back and still very short on top. Not sure if I want to take him to the hairdresser just to get the back cut when the time comes! ]]> Wed, 15 Oct 2008 19:47:16 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21612&PID=518458&title=babys-first-haircut#518458 <![CDATA[Baby’s first haircut? : Linzy wrote:Jack still doesn&#039;t...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21612&PID=517804&title=babys-first-haircut#517804 Author: MrsMojo

Ooh thanks Pearls, I would love to know if there are any on the shore, or even in the city would be ok too!]]> Sun, 12 Oct 2008 21:06:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21612&PID=515800&title=babys-first-haircut#515800 <![CDATA[Baby’s first haircut? : Oh I am so glad some of you didn&#039;t...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21612&PID=515755&title=babys-first-haircut#515755 Author: myfullhouse

Yeah I ended up having to chop Isla a 'geek fringe' cos it was all over her face and there was no way she would keen ties or clips in. She will now tho,..and looks cuper cute with pigtails and her little fringe!]]> Sun, 12 Oct 2008 11:07:56 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21612&PID=515425&title=babys-first-haircut#515425 <![CDATA[Baby’s first haircut? : Pearls wrote:We didn&#039;t...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21612&PID=515421&title=babys-first-haircut#515421 Author: Mama2two

I would love to know your secrets for getting clips and ties to stay in. The minute I put anything like this in Sam's hair she pulls it straight out.
I am thinking we are going to have to go the hair cut route here very soon ]]> Sun, 12 Oct 2008 10:54:03 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21612&PID=515421&title=babys-first-haircut#515421 <![CDATA[Baby’s first haircut? : I took James to Just cuts down...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21612&PID=515295&title=babys-first-haircut#515295 Author: Bubbaloo

Do you have a Just Cuts in the area?  I'd got to them... or a salon close by that's trying to match their prices on kids haircuts. 

I've still not taken Michaela to the hairdresser so no idea what they cost but I'd be suprised if you had to pay more than $20.

I always said I'd get Alex's hair cut when it started getting in his eyes, and now it is.

There is not a chance I'm doing it myself, I'd probably cut his ear off or something! So that means I need to find a hairdresser (preferably on or near the north shore) who does a good job on toddlers' hair.

Any tips or recommendations?]]> Sat, 11 Oct 2008 21:49:22 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21612&PID=515216&title=babys-first-haircut#515216
