I HAD to do it

About 2 weeks ago, like every other time in the past, I went to cut Kevin's hair. For some reason he went absolutely ape shit. Weeping and wailing, arms flying, head whipping. It was brutal. I was like, "WTF?!". I don't know why this is suddenly freaking him out, but DAMN. Anyway, I had already made some cuts and could not stop at that point. I was using scissors and was worried about hurting him, so I snipped fast and got out quick. In hindsight, it turned out so bad because of his flailing about that it really wouldn't have made that much of a difference in the outcome if I had stopped earlier. It turned out that bad. I let some time go by and cringed at how bad it was every time I had to take him out in public...which is often since he goes everywhere with me.
Today I took a clipper to it. At least I didn't have to worry about poking his damn eye out. He threw a fit again, but I really didn't care at this point. I love how short his hair is now....the top has that fuzzy feeling, but I don't like the way the front looks. His hairline grows around his face...KWIM? Because of this, the front looks all rounded and like a bowl cut. Not sure what to do about this....thinking of putting mousse or gel in it and trying it spiked up...
He's saying "cheese"....

I think it's adorable and Katie has a complete fear of scissors and she's never been cut nails and etc. so can't figure out where it comes from?

He'd so be a handsome little man even with NO hair!

Aww! He looks exactly like my cousin Andy used to when he was that age (and he looked pretty damn cute). But yeah, scissors + squirming kid = scary. :)

Maybe try buzzing it even shorter? That might help and it will be cool for the summer! Either way- he's a cutie!!

Very cute! John was great getting his hair cut until he turned two, then he started having fits. I have had my stylist do it the whole time because I'm paranoid that I'll cut him. Lately, I've had to hold him on my lap to make it happen - that and continuously feed him a stream of hershey kisses that they stylist always has sitting there.
