I wrote about this when I first started blogging this summer. This is one of my favorite photos of my son, so I thought it would be good to re-post for week 2 of I ? Faces.
••••••••
I just started cutting my kiddo’s hair myself. I must say, I’ve been doing a pretty great job up until today! Okay, here is the front… Looks good huh? He’s so cute, I LOVE this photo of him. This is his natural smile which I hardly ever catch on camera.
Now, here is the back.
Whoops!!! See the strip of baldness? I wasn’t thinking and forgot to put the little shield on the clippers and buzzed a line up his head! I freaked out at first, but after cutting the rest, it turned out okay. I’m sure by next week, it will have grown out. At least he doesn’t seem to care. He likes to feel it, thinks it’s cool. Maybe I should do another strip on the other side and it will look like I meant to do it? ha!

I have a 2 1/2 year old. I’ve given him his last 4 haircuts. I swear it gets harder and harder everytime. It takes me hours to chase him around and snip a little bit whenever I can! This past haircut was certainly not my best work!
Great picture!
Oh this picture is awesome. I used to help “clean up” my husband’s hair after he clipped it and I am so bad at it. I used to clip around his ears and it was always so ugly. I used to tell him that I would pay for his haircuts if he would just go have it done!

That’s cute!
I used to cut Robert’s hair when it was still curly…because it really didn’t matter how I cut it…it would just curl up any old way and no one would even notice how bad the cut was 😉
But now his curls are gone, sniff, sniff..so off to the barber he goes with Dad and big brother!

Oooops! I have done that before too! He has a gorgeous smile. I find it difficult to get a natural one for my son too.

How cute- I use to cut my boys hair with the Flo Be- {cutters with a vacuum attached to it :}
Great pictures- and I’m so enjoying Faces- I don’t know much about taking pictures but it fun to see what others come up with.

it will grow back fast! I’ve cut my girls hair and it’s been a little wonky on more than one occasion! It all grows back ! 😉
Jen R@Sanctuaryarts’s last blog post..Blog roll round up…
I did the same thing to my brother’s head once. He begged me to cut it. I did really good until he asked me to go a little shorter. It ended up looking like he had a landing strip on the top of his head which forced him to have a full baldy buzz. 🙂

hehe. Amy – I think you did a 90% terrific job! 😉
I used to cut all my boys’ hair, too. But I think I had a few too many “oopses” and my husband banned me from doing the cutting. Now, he’s the barber. 😛

That is hilarious and for that reason and that reason alone, I will never cute my husband’s hair.

I’m glad I’m not the only one doing my son’s hair! Yours seems happier about it than mine! Very cute.
Tracy P.’s last blog post..Funny Face
You are so brave! I never, ever cut my kids hair…never. I do let hubby cut it during the summer if they just want a buzz cut, but that’s it. I’m the one forking over $40 everytime I take the kids to the barber shop. Ha!
theArthurClan’s last blog post..And…He’s Baaaa-aaaack!
Oh dear, umm, well get him to walk forward until it grows! Mind you, if he smiles like that … no-one will notice!
