No matter how much he begs . . .

Never cut your middle schooler's hair by yourself

DS insisted he needed a haircut at 9:00pm last night - so I thought I could do it. You would think I would have learned from my own Mom's bad perms and color jobs.

It's back to the salon today for a re-do.. I think he hates me now.

Sounds like he needs a buzz cut now!

Don't feel too bad. Hair grows back.

I cut my DS13's hair because my friend who is a hair dresser said I was stupid to keep paying for buzz cuts & taught me how.
I swore I would never ever cut my DD's hair, not even her bangs, because I had to hold my head crooked so my bangs would look straight after my Mom cut mine.

LOL! Awww, I'm sure he doesn't hate you.

Heehee! Never cut your ex's hair either! My ex had (notice the word had ) very long hair, down to the middle of his back and he just wanted a trim. He was so mad at me because I kept evening it out. Imagine how mad he was when he looked in the mirror and it was almost to his shoulders! Well, at least one side was anyway.

That was my problem, I kept trying to "even it out". The problem is his hair is black and when you take a gouge out with the clippers - it's hard to "even it out" with out shaving him bald.

I guess it didn't look too bad - he did go to school yesterday. I was afraid he would try to get me to let him stay home until it grew out
