New Haircut

Hawksbill said it was time to update the blog, and what could be better than a tale from the kiddos this weekend.

I am home sick today fighting some bug I have had for almost 3 weeks now, and Simon has it, too. Friday I was totally miserable, and my mom-radar did not kick in properly when Simon came downstairs to say, "Gwen and I need some privacy."

"Why?" I asked, too sick to budge from the couch.
"Just 'cause," answered Simon.
"Are you doing anything bad? Are you making a mess?"
"No!" Simon answered, and although I could tell he was lying, I was still too tired and sick to get up from the couch...until Super Model Gwen came down to show off her brand new haircut...

Here are some before and after shots...and some pics of what it looks like after a trip to Borics to see if there was anything they could do to fix it...sigh...

The evidence

What Gwen looked like a week ago

The new haircut, a la Simon (ok--Gwen actually cut her own hair here, but Simon stood watch so I wouldn't catch them in the act)


She's so proud!!

The mullet....



Trying to avoid the camera, but look how long it WAS -- almost down the middle of her back :(

Here is what the outcome was after the trip to get it fixed...Gwen loves it...she said she looks just like Simon now...it's just hair...it will grow back....at least it is easier to brush.`

Well she looks very cute! And it will no doubt be nice and thick when it grows in.

Will she wear clips (like Alligator clips?). You can girly it up with some. Let me know and i'll send some from my Spring line:) Makes it sound so official, but I have made at least 500 clips and if you let me know what colours she likes, I'll pop a few in the mail!

Hi, Jenn!!

Thanks for the offer, but Gwen will not wear anything in her hair (other than the occasional headband for 2 minutes) to save her life!! Are you going to post pictures of the clips you made? If they are already on your blog, please disregard that comment....

I appreciate the offer, though!!

I am getting used to the short hair, but I know how long it takes for my hair to grow, so I will wait and wait and wait...ah, well...
