Okay I have a ton of stuff to blog and this has already been a busy week but I wanted to share the big news… I won’t lie, I got a touch teary before and a bit teary on and off for a few days but Ares decided to get his hair cut… He’d been growing it out for over a year and he had hair that I am not kidding you looked better with snot, dirt and pizza sauce in it then mine does five minutes after leaving the hairdresser.
But probably equal parts tired of being called “little girl” and tired of dealing with it as the summer temps reached the nineties he asked, we gave him a few days to change his mind and then I called my friend Pam who is the most talented artistic hairdresser in the world (she works in Ann Arbor right down town at Salon Vertigo ) and she and Greg came out and did it for us.
I can’t imagine he’ll have any confidence issues, seriously it’s like a rockstar changing looks, his favorite album playing, a stylist coming to the house, being videotaped and photographed lol.
A few pics… (you can see my camera poking in frame in the video)
I kept the first lock and we left the rest for the birds and their nests.  It did take me a few days but I love it now, I still miss the long hair, but wowza it’s nice to be able to see his face all the time :)
Paula BurgoonWOW! What a big change for the handsome guy! LOVED the video.
Ryantoo awesome.
susanoh, i miss his long hair, but i think it’s so rad that he made the decision to cut it all by himself. and he’s still adorable (although i have to admit i’m happy he didn’t request the full shave) :)
KateThat’s a good cut and it suits his face. Your little boy is growing up.
