Notice that teddy is wearing a clip and Adde is combing Teddy's hair. With these distractions, she did pretty well with her first haircut. We didn't get much cut off, but enough so that her bangs were not in her face and the back was evened out. I practiced for a week before the haircut using my fingers, taking her to see daddy get his hair cut, and cutting the grass with scissors. Perhaps overkill, but when you know your child does not like new situations, you try just about everything to make the situation go more smoothly. She announced for about a week afterwards that "Sarah cut hair", which is correct as Sarah was the stylist who cut her hair. I rewarded her with new 33 cent bubbles from the dollar store. Overall, a great new experience for us.
