Her Little Cut

Over the weekend Phoebe got her first hair cut.  It was unplanned and very spur of the moment.  I actually had to be talked into it...

We were in Emporia and Sarah had an appointment to get her hair trimmed by our favorite hair lady, Kathy.

Kathy has cut and fixed my mom's hair, my hair, and my sister's hair for many many years.  Even though we don't live in Emporia anymore, I still schedule my appointments with Kathy when we are going to be in Emporia.  Kathy is from Emporia too and actually had my dad as one of her teachers when she was in High School.  She is such a nice lady and a great hair lady!

So, after Sarah got her hair trimmed Kathy really wanted to trim Phoebe's... just the front... where her hair hung down in front to her eyes and came to a little point....

So, after we talked about if for about five minutes and got some more opinions from others that were there in the shop, I sat in Kathy's chair with Phoebe in my lap, because Phoebe wouldn't sit up in the chair by herself, and let Kathy trim Phoebe's hair in the front.  She evened it up and it does look cute now.

Phoebe did not hold very still while sitting in the chair with me and she did not want to look up at Kathy.  She was a little bit of a hair cut challenge, but Kathy was up for it!  She gave Phoebe an orange plastic hair roller to hold and play with and that made Phoebe smile...

And, both girls got lollipops from Kathy before we left the shop.  Thanks Kathy for being a great hair lady!
