Over the weekend, I caught up on a few things that I've been meaning to do for a while, which included giving the boys haircuts. M doesn't really look thrilled, but he's actually doing just fine and is watching Elmo Visits the Firehouse on J's laptop. Haircuts in this neighborhood can get quite costly, so we end up saving a decent amount of money if we do them at home. I realize at some point it'll be easier to take them to a barber, but for now, it's working out well for us. I even cut J's hair too (he's not picky). He doesn't cut mine though, because it's really thick and difficult to layer through. My mom is the real pro, so she usually gives me a quick trim every time I visit my folks (which is not often enough). I've been on the hunt for a good, affordable salon, but haven't found the perfect place yet. I'm also thinking about trying something different, since I pretty much have had the same haircut for my whole adult life. Any suggestions?
