The thing about your baby having a lot of hair is that it gets long really quickly. The little man was getting shaggy. And since both his parents were too chicken to take up the razor to his still rather nice hair, we decided to cart him off to a salon and have them do the deed.
It was not a moment too soon I guess cos that very afternoon when we were out shopping (and before his haircut), an auntie carrying her toddler asked her daughter to say hello to “Mei Mei”. Hmmm.
We opted for Junior League at Suntec and were stunned the $20 price tag. No wash or blow dry and really he doesn’t have THAT much hair. But since we were not keen to do it ourselves we didn’t have a choice! And in the end, I’m glad we got it done by professionals since they were really quick and Noah didn’t end up with butchered hair. And he was a pretty good sport about the whole thing.
Hanging out on Mummy’s shoulder in my pre-cut shaggy mop.
“So, Uncle, I was thinking maybe you could just trim my sideburns, and make it a bit shorter at the back. You know, just slope it a bit…”
“Okay Uncle, I’m sold. Make me cute!”
“Take a last good look at this hair Daddy! I’m getting a new look!”
“Hey, go easy with that razor, won’t ya?”
“Eh. This isn’t as fun as I thought it would be…”
“Gasp! What happened to my hair!”
“Hey guys, this really isn’t fun AT ALL!”
“How about if I say please? Can you stop? Please?”
“There’s more? Sigh. Fine. Make it snappy.”
“Oh, we’re all done? Finally!”
“I’m glad that’s over. I need a nap.”
That’s his first haircut down! I’ve been told that he will shed hair around the 3rd/4th month but I’m hoping the hairfall wouldn’t be too severe. In the meantime, I think he’s looking very much like a boy with his new short hair!

He napped right after the haircut? Gosh! That’s such a good boy.
