Liam was as bald as a cue ball for the first year of his life. Because of this he missed the first haircut that most babies have around that 1 year milestone. He missed it at year 2 as well. Our boy had finally grown the most beautiful hair. Most unlike his mother and fathers straight dark hair- Liam sprouted blonde hair w/ spiral ringlets in the back. He was mistaken for a girl more often than not. When unknowing strangers commented on my girls pretty long blonde curly hair I stopped correcting them, and Liam would yell, 'GIRL- JOKE!'. I knew that as soon as he got a haircut the ringlets could disappear forever and I wasn't willing to take that risk. Liams' hair defined him. We were sure his 'rockstar' personality and love of guitars was directly linked to his cool hairdo. But then came the day when my 2 y/o boy cried and cried when I brushed out his hair w/ my 'no more tangles' spray and we thought, it might be time for a 'trim.' So here's the before and after of our boys first haircut.
