First Hair Cut

My baby is growing up so fast! Saturday Zack got his first hair cut. I've been meaning to get it done for awhile now but it's so hard because most kids don't need to get their hair cut until they are much older. But Zack and his cousin Evan both had to get hair cuts at about 6 months.

We were going to have my brothers' girlfriend Arielle cut Zack's hair on Christmas but things got so hectic with the snowstorm and visiting family that it just never happened.

Bob finally made an appointment with his Aunt Ione and we went in on Saturday. Zack did so good. He pretty much takes to everyone easily. She sprayed his hair a couple times and started clipping. He didn't really seem to mind at all. Ione gave me a few of the first pieces that were clipped. We thought we were cutting about 1 1/2 inches off but when I measured it it's about 3 inches. But his hair turned out exactly the way we wanted it to. If I really try hard I can probalby lay it down flat but we wanted it so we could spike and faux hawk it again! It's so cute, but he looks so grown up now!

We actually think his hair cut is shorter then when he was born!

Well I guess that's just life, my little guy is growing up!

Just another milestone!

The measurement!!

  1. What an adorable little man! The first haircut is always so special. If he ever starts getting fussy at haircuts, take him to Cookie Cutters. They specialize in haircuts for kids and have all sorts of techniques to distract them.
