well i was looking at Rhyleys hair today and thought perhaps I need to take him to get a hair cut - Now I love his curls but I am running the risk of him developing a (should I say it) Mullet!
So what I want to know is what age did you take your toddler/child for first 'HAIRDRESSERS' haircut? And what sort of style did you get? I really want to leave the back curls in but the top looks a tad messy.... ------------- Ann

I know Maya's a girl lol, but here's my 2CW anyway  She was about 22 mths when she got her first haircut but it was quite long by that stage, if she'd been a boy I prob would have had it done earlier. We just had it trimmed and thinned out coz her curls are so thick.
The gremlins won't need haircuts till they start school by the way things are going lol, they are follicularly challenged  -------------  Maya Grace (28/02/03)

My SIL is a hairdresser so Ethan knew her but we did go to the salon.
It was a couple of days after his first birthday!!! He had a mop. I didn't want it to be stressful or scray for him so I just got it to trim it. I think that would be a good thing to start with then if hes happy getting it done you could go shorter next time. ------------- ** MUM TO ** Ethan 29/08/2006 Brooke 22/09/2008 |

In the 'naki isn't mullet the fashion *ducks from flying objects*.
No but seriously I can't talk as my daughter had some really bad hair months - firstly she looked like Phil Collins then the sides grew really long while the back and top stayed short (classic girl mullet) and she look like Billy Ray Cyrus, at this point I took action and cut the sides. I haven't taken her to the hair dresser yet. -------------

| I didn't take Jack until it was in his eyes and then only trimmed his fringe, would of been about 18 months I think. I love Jacks hair and hate cutting it but his father wants to shave it so it grows until it gets in hsi eyes and then gets cut. |

I think my son will start High School by the time he needs a haircut the way he is going.

I was thinking that I might buy Jack his first hair cut for his 50th! My boy definately won't need one in the foreseeable future! ------------- Lindsey

Rhyley I think has the same sort of hair style as Josh. I refuse to cut his hair coz i'm scared he'll lose his curls. When we took Andrew in for his first cut the hairdresser she just tidied it up for us, so I would think they know what to do. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |
