Head Shaving

It was time for James to get a haircut, but for some reason every time we mention Auntie Ra cutting his hair he just says "nope" or says yes but after many failed attempts we have realized it is a losing battle at this time and we aren't going to push it.

However...his hair is super thick and looks so shaggy when it it is long and lately it's been driving me crazy so this past week we've been telling him we are going to shave his head and although we knew he would hate it, we decided we were going to do it anyways. We hoped that once he got it shaved he would realize that sitting for a haircut was a much better idea. It still remains to be seen about whether he will in fact think that after today's experience.

I think in the end it was more traumatic for me but holding him while he was screaming and sobbing was certainly no picnic for this emotional and hormonal Mommy. He looks so cute though and within 2 minutes of being done he was totally fine so I know we just need to keep doing it until he gets used to it. At least now we won't let it get that long or shaggy knowing how hard it it is to get it shaved while he kicks and screams!

Overall I think he's absolutely adorable with his short hair and I really hope that in time he gets used to the head shaving or will willingly get Auntie to cut his hair. As I said before, only time will tell!
