About 6 years ago, I found out that one of my friends was cutting her husband’s hair with clippers. I thought that was a great way to save money. Especially since my husband is in the military and has to keep his hair very short. He has to get his haircut at least every 3 to 4 weeks. That would equate to about $225 a year for one person. So, I invested in some decent clippers and started experimenting. Rick learned very quickly not to ask me to cut his hair when I was mad at him, as he always ended up with a really horrible haircut. I really didn’t do it on purpose. It just turned out that way. Then we had Andrew, and since I was already cutting Rick’s hair I decided to cut Andrew’s hair too. I got lucky since both Rick and Andrew have wavy hair which is perfect to use clippers on.
So, the other night Rick and Andrew were well overdue for a haircut. Andrew loves to throw a fit and hates to get his haircut. I finally convinced him that it was time especially since it was so hot. I explained that he wouldn't feel so hot with his hair shorter. He finally agreed since it has been almost 100 degrees here this week. As I’m cutting his hair, Jenna is watching me. She asks me if I can cut her hair next. I told her I only know how to cut hair with clippers, and if she wanted her hair to look like Andrew’s or Daddy’s hair, I could do her hair too. So, she keeps asking all kinds of questions about how I would cut it and is using hand motions to show me. Then, I get this flash of how she cut her hair right before Christmas and cut a huge chunk out of the front of her hair. I tried my best to explain that I only do one hair style and it only looks good on boys. So, I’m keeping my fingers crossed that she doesn’t decide to cut her own hair again! I think the boys got a pretty good haircut. What do you think?
