$5 Haircut, Never Again

N's hair was getting a bit long. Her bangs were just beginning to poke her eyes (I had cut them a few weeks prior). The back of her hair was by no means even, and had never been cut. It sort of looked like she had a mullet! Anywho, I decided it was time to get it cut, and instead of busting out the 'ol scissors like I should've, I took her to the $5 hair cut place where I get my hair cut. This place has always done a reputable job on my hair. Jaime doesn't like getting his hair cut there because it doesn't come out as well as he'd like it to, and he ends up arguing with the beautician about what size razor to use.. anywho. I took N there. Boy oh boy was that a mistake! I walked into the bustling shop with my giant jogging stroller, which of course got me a lot of strange looks from the stylists and customers and what not. The woman who cut N's hair moved the stroller a few yards behind me next to the ATM. We got N undressed and beginned what would be the process of making my daughter look like who knows what. First off, the lady hardly spoke English. I understand Spanish way better than I speak it, so I was speaking in English, and her in Spanish. There was obviously a misconception somewhere. She began by cutting her bangs. The hair was wet and appeared longer than it was. The woman did a great job on evening out the back of her hair. The bangs are hearbreaking. We have a birthday party to go to tomorrow, and I know everyone will be full of questions about what happened. I was trying to get creative and start making bows again, but I can't find my sewing kit and all I have are a bunch of old headbands. Anywho.. here is miss priss now:


If I come up with any creative solutions to this haircut, I'll be sure and update.

I decided to edit this because there are a few other things going on. I can NOT find my contacts, I am seriously blind without them! So I had to order two more boxes (my eyes are different perscriptions) and get next day by noon delivery which probably won't be here until Monday or Tuesday! Aah! Work is definately no fun, I'm blind as a bat.

Also, I'm also waiting on another package- I ordered a new carseat for N! It's a Maxi-Cosi Priori and I love it, it's brown, orange, and blue. I'll have to post pics when it comes in. I'm like a UPS and FedEx stalker.. I just keep tracking the packages.

I'm probably going to go take a shower now.. I spent nearly $15 on non-organic shampoos (boo me!) so I'd better get to using them up! The Loreal Vive was on sale at Kmart, so I caved and bought it. It's the color revival kind, and I just dyed my hair. Not sure if I like it yet.
