First Hair Cut!

I gave Paige her first hair cut today! She was such a brave girl! =>

I just had to. Her hair was lop-sided and it was really buggin me. => haha
The left side has always had more hair and now you could really tell. The right side looks like normal baby hair, but the left side was all shaggy and such.
You could even see the difference on the back of her head. (yes her hair does slant more to the left too). Jared didn't want me to cut her hair. He wanted it to "run free and wild", and thought she had to be older to cut it. Once I explained she could be however old to cut her hair he was not so opposed to it anymore. He still wanted it to be wild tho haha.
So I began cutting my 10 week 5 day year olds hair. =>
She was so good! She just sat there and played with her burp cloth! She is such a good little baby!
I only trimmed little bits on the left side. And I am by no means a professional hairdresser, but it will do for babies hair. =>
Just a little trim off the top, still shaggy like Daddy likes it => haha
A little more cleaned up on the side (remember, not a professional)
And cleaned up on the back. I know it looks like Paige has bald spots but she actually has a LOT of hair! Jared and I are suprised about that. All her hair she is growing in now is blonde! Jared calls the hair she was born with "two toned" because the ends are brown but the roots are blonde! Maybe I will have my blonde haired blue eyed California girl after all! => And we are also surpised she has straight hair so far. Both Jared and I have curly/wavey hair. We are betting her curl will come soon tho.

Hair Dying Day

So two days ago the wives and I were bored so we decided to dye our hair! There were two brunettes and I was a blonde. One wanted to go darker brown with blonde highlights, one wanted to have the top half blonde and bottom brown, and I wanted to be a light brown. Things didnt work out quite as we planned =>











These are our before pictures (I know, so cute) =>
This is me bleaching Julie's hair! And no I didnt wear gloves, and yes, it hurt like the dickens!!
After I had my dye put in my hair! Oh so exciting!!!
Doing Danae's highlights! We didnt have hair foil, so we used kitchen tin foil...... big mistake! I would not reccommend it!!!
And this is our semi after picture! My hair turned out to be more red than brown, which I am in the process of fixing, Julies hair took the dye in such a weid way! Her roots were platnum, but the length of the hair was like a red/blond/brown mix, and Danaes hair didnt even take the bleach, it just made likee dark strawberry blonde highlights!
Needless to say, it was a fun adventure but the results did not turn out so hot. => Julie dyed her hair dark brown to cover the mishap, and Danae ended up liking the strazberry streaks, but wanted me to highlight blond in there too, so we did that again tonight (with different bleach & real hair foil), so I am excited to see how it turned out! I am sure I will post pictures of all our new, fixed hair when its ready! But this was a little fun adventure to have. A fun way to occupy our long lonley days! =>

Hair Cut!!

As many of you know and have seen, Jared has not been cutting his hair. His whole goal was to not cut his hair the first year we were married. => He wanted one of those surfer/snowboarder shags! =>He started growing it, and around 4 months of growth I loved it! His hair is so soft and I loved playing with it, not to mention it look very handsome! Then it started getting long to the point of it being noticably long, and he still wouldnt trim it. lol He started getting really annoyed with it, he said he felt like a girl because he always had to do his hair before we went out. So Monday we went over to his old roommates apartments for dinner, but we ended up getting a show! They buzzed Jareds head! It was so funny! Here are some pictures! => The first one at the top of this post was taken one day before the buzzing =>


They are going to do it!!!! =>


In the action of cutting this long luscious hair! =>


A little detour in the process, they left a little curl... awww how cute!! hehehe =>


This was a two man job! Jed cut away the fluff, and Brett blended

The finished product! He is such a rebellious little man, I said smile and at the last minute he did this face, I dont even know what to call it =>
Look at all that hair! And this is even after the vaccuumed half of it up, then we decided to take a picture, so Brett swept the rest into a pile! Dang Jared had a lot of hair!! =>
