Hair Cut For Zander

Our busy day began with a much needed haircut for Zander. He HATES people touching him. I've always buzzed him. He has been informing me that the doesn't want me to buzz him because the razor will eat his head. We've tried to go to a salon but there you have it...he freaks out when "strangers" touch him..... and it takes a while to get a cut done because he has those (can we all say it together?) Sensory Integration Issues. ::snort::

I told him yesterday I HAD to cut his hair. We began. It took us about 35 minutes, and I'll have to find minutes through the rest of this week to finish it up - but we succeeded. I think it's "ok" and certainly better. Can't really see - but here's a photo.

De'Etta, Zander's haircut looks great! Matthew despises getting his hair cut too. He can't stand the feeling of the hair on his skin. When he was younger it was much worse but now we've found a much less traumatizing way to do it. We cut Matthew's hair while he's taking a bath.

Wow, I can buzz my guys and it is still a tough one somedays!

Our middle son was the same way at Zander's age. Say the word "haircut" and he'd go into a frenzied tantrum. He's better now.

Our 5 y/o dd decided to cut her beautiful blonde hair w/out help for the second time this year. Life goes on.

You did great! I can only do two lengths, buzzed or no cut at all. LOL The younger boys go to the barber when they want a more middle length. Of course Trevor is always stuck with me since he still can't do barbers.

I really should try to do a mid length cut so the guys can have more variety!

Anyway, very handsome you have many talents VBG.

He's such a cutie! None of my kids, except Evie(LOL), like getting their hair cut. My Mom is a hair stylist and it just drives her crazy.LOL Of course, it drives her crazy that Evie keeps cutting her hair...lol
