Lyla's First Haircut

 I put off Lyla's first haircut as long as I could. The back is filled with the sweetest blonde curls and since she came from a mom and dad with the straightest hair, I was sure that when I finally had them cut they would be gone forever. The back of her hair grew and grew but the front remained mostly the same length (baby mullet) so I knew it was time to even it out. She constantly sweeps the front out of her eyes so I also thought bangs would be a good idea. 

I walked into the salon holding her hand. She was beaming from ear to ear from the excitement of a "big girl haircut". She was her usual self whenever she is experiencing something for the first time ... quiet, reserved, and uninterested. I barely got this sweet smile as she climbed up in the chair and was covered up by a safari cape. 

Her face went from a shy smile to concerned ...

Then to completely uninterested ... haha!

She held so very still and was so brave. Here is the before and after ... she could not have been more excited for those m&m's and to be able to take one home to brother.

How adorable is she?!! I mean!!! Her first haircut could not have fit her spunky personality more perfectly! She was so proud of it for days after and told everyone she saw that she got a "big girl haircut". 

Trying so hard to act grumpy ... haha!

She is the cutest thing I've ever seen. Oh I love you Lyla girl and your big girl haircut! <3

The best part about it ... she still has her curls!!!
