Before |
I put it off. For a while. Years actually. But I have learned by sad experience those adorable curls that frame my daughter's faces are only a baby phenomenon. Once Ireland had her hair trimmed, I knew the freakishly adorable ringlets would be a thing of the past. So I waited. And waited. And waited. One day I was washing her hair in the bath and realized it was almost down to her bum. Okay, so it was time.
I was sad to miss it, but in the end it's a good thing I wasn't there. Brent's much more easy going and I'm sure he didn't stand in the background cringing with every snip like I would have. He tells me Ireland really enjoyed herself. Now when I style Ireland's hair it doesn't tangle so easily. It's smooth and even and beautiful.When I try to comb her pigtails into ringlets, the hair just slides off my fingers--rebelliously straight. A lot of her blonde was cut off as well. She's starting to look more distinctive and I'm wondering if strangers will stop asking if she and Liesel are identical twins.
