Barbershop

I DID IT! I finally cut Brandon's hair (along with Cooper's) and I didn't mess it up. I must say, I am mighty proud. I have been "attempting" haircuts for 5 years now to no success. It usually takes me about 1 1/2 hours and it ends up looking...well not so professional. Hence the reason Brandon usually doesn't get a haircut until we visit Utah.
Well, like always, we forgot/ran out of time last time we were visiting and so that left Brandon's unruly locks to me...too shay. (How do you really spell that word? Better yet, what does it really mean?) touche - thanks Kadon.
So, last Saturday I dove in. Both feet. Man am I awesome. I just went with it, no hesitation, no second guessing, no incessant combing. Guess what, the end result: no uneven sideburns, no 80's steps, no bald husband. I am too awesome.
There was one minor set back, however. Don't tell Brandon but I didn't exactly achieve the "look" I was going for. I was hoping to semi-spike the center, leave it a little longer, so he could do is hair in the fro hawk. Seriously! I think the fro hawk is hot. Maybe next time...

For now he will just have to be clean cut, but at least he doesn't look like a dork.

I don't have any after pictures for you, all I have is a pink panty clad little boy running out in prep of his haircut. Enjoy.

  1. It's touche- it's a fencing term meaning you touched the sword to the oppenent.
    Also it's faux-hawk...just thought you would like to know

  2. Sorry I forgot to mention that when that happens (a touche) you get a point so when someone says touche it means "point for you" or in simpler terms "good one"

  3. Way to correct the spelling and inform the gangsta wanna be!!! Also , I am totally suprised that Kadon did not comment on the pink underwear! Come on does JT need to send him some boy underwear?!

  4. I am so proud of you. Way to go. Every time it will be easier and easier and you will find that you can eventually do any haircut you want. Personally, I think Coop is adorable. Great pics.
