So, Bailey got bangs a few months ago. I was sick and tired of not seeing her face, only hair, all the time. She wouldn't leave a clip or a headband, or any hair thing in for any length of time. There was only one option left. Bangs. I was hesitant, but went through with it. I thought they ended up pretty cute.
But then they got long.
I have absolutely no hair cutting experience. None. I was afraid to cut her bangs, so I put if off, and put it off, and put it off. I could procrastinate no further. I grabbed a comb, a pair of hair cutting scissors, and a spray bottle. We headed outside.
It was a disaster. Bailey wouldn't hold her head at quite the right angle, I was super nervous, and the hair scissors were terribly dull.
This is the result:

I'd say she did it :) By the way, I think you can get them trimmed for $5 at places like Great Clips.
She's adorable! Cutting bangs is hard and they are so unforgiving. You did good. When I get my act together I have a post to do on trimming your daughter's hair . . . much more forgiving than the bangs! I made my fair share of mistakes cutting my families hair too. I got an email back from Fabuless Frugal. They said they'd get your DVD to you soon! :)
hahaha. Oh my goodness. Well, maybe it helps if you tell her that hair like that is becoming quite fashionable in Europe again with women. I'm sure if you google it you'll find a few examples.
Studio 11 (on route 11 near Target and Walmart) does kids cuts for $6. Hair grows... hopefully quickly. :)
This made me smile. My Father (the kids grandpa) used to cut the boys hair and my daughter you used to gather it up and plant it in the ground because Grandpa said that once hair was cut it would grow again quickly....Kids Huh?
There's a bright side to all this too. With the hair well out of her eyes, she won't be likely to get any eye diseases :-)
Well, at least they aren't in her face anymore. ;) And they'll grow fast. My comment would be to not get them wet when you cut them and maybe do it when she's sleeping...hehehe...
Hahahahaha, that is too funny, I love her comments :P They don't look that bad :P
Hey, at least she didn't take the scissors to them herself :) No matter her haircut, she makes it look cute.
Oh Kari!! You're so funny. Don't you know that's what the oldest is for? To be a guinea pig!! Haha. Bangs are hard, don't worry, they grow back really fast too! Thanks for including Bailey's comments, they made me laugh! Kids seem to grow up so fast don't they?
I actually think they're really cute
I have a hair cutting friend who says you take all the bangs together and twist them together right at the nose and then cut while it is twisted at the top of the nose. That way it gives the bangs a nice curve so they are longer on the sides than the front. I tried it with mine and it worked. Also do them dry. I pull my bangs back everyday however because I don't love them on me. I think she looks really cute with her bangs like that however. They will grow.
