Aiden has been growing his hair out. I don’t mind because I love his strawberry blonde hair. I love it with a little length. I love how thick it is. I think it’s absolutely wonderful and unique and so very Aiden.
Several weeks ago I made an appointment with our favorite hairstylist, Jenna, to cut Ches and the boys’ hair. Aiden refused the cut. I said, “That’s fine. You can either just trim it, or let it go as long as you want.” He opted to let it go.
A couple of weeks later Aiden admitted to me that he was growing his hair out because he wanted to see how long it would take before I freaked out. I laughed and said, “It’s just hair. I don’t care. You can grow it to your ankles and I’m not going to care. You can do whatever you want with your hair.”
He looked a little troubled for a minute, then quietly asked, “Then can I get a haircut?”
That is SOOOO stinkin funny!!!!!!
My Dad was loony with hair. me and my 3 sisters were NOT allowed to cut our hair or do anything to it–Just let it grow. Period. We weren’t even allowed to get it trimmed! So, when I was 16 I got it permed and chopped short just to make him mad. I loved it! I vowed that my kids can do WHATEVER they want to their hair. Like you said, it’s just hair!
Not that any of my kids care one whit about their hair. I guess Jenacy cares a little, but not much. The boys don’t care even a little bit.
PS–where’s a picture of Aiden’s shaggy head???
Three of my sisters were hair dressers… if we came home with blue or pink hair, my dad would just shake his head and say “experimenting again were we?” hehe
Awww that’s so cute!
lol! That is so funny
I love it – but I’m with Timber – where’s the picture?? 
I want to see a picture too. But I’m kind of opposite. I want my kids to look clean cut and well kept. So, I cut the boys hair fairly often and do what I can with the girl’s hair.
