FIRST HAIRCUT!!!

So it was finally time for Tyson to get his first haircut after 19 months of letting it grow. Good thing its curly because it's hard to tell how long his hair really is. Trust me it was long. And not only that it was just becoming hard to manage. It would get really tangled and he HATED when I would have to comb it out which was practically every day. We already had to compromise his night time baths and change them to daytime ones because I had to do his hair every morning and it had to be wet.

Well this new place had opened up in the mall called FIRST CUT and we figured it was perfect for our little guy to get his first hair cut. It was definitely a place for the younger hip crowd. They had these cool airplane chairs and each seat had flat screen TV's that played cartoons so the little ones could be pre-occupied while they got their hair cut which worked magic with Tyson. And we had Daddy ready with our new video camera to get everything on tape.

Seeing his first curls get cut was sooo sad yet exciting all at once. I cant wait to make the scrapbook page with his first cut curls.

Before his harcut his hair was halfway down his back.

He had a good time. We just had to stay close to his seat otherwise he would get scared but cartoon helped a lot. We also had a huge crowd watching which I'm sure made him a little more nervous.

Thank goodness the lady didnt chop off too much because we love his little curls. The average person wouldnt be able to tell he even got a haircut probably but when you look at his wild mane in the before and after you can tell. His next one will probably take 6 more months :) The hairdresser then packed up the first few cuts of hair in a little envelope and gave Tyson a certificate for his first haircut. Then he got a sucker for being such a good boy. THANKS GRANDPA NEAL for paying for this special time.
