Matthew's haircut


Matthew's hair is starting to look like a porcupine, so we decided to bring him to the barber.
His hair is a very good example of defying gravity. It just doesn't lie flat on his head, especially the center part. When it was finally his turn on the barber's chair, he started to wail! As if I was sending him to army at the tender young age. Nothing was able to distract his attention from the barber's clipper. After 5 mins of struggle, we knew it was not going to work, so went back

So, I decided to give it a snip, more than a snip actually. I actually had a bit of phobia from the last cut, because it was quite badly done as it was not even at certain parts (it was my first time afterall). However this time, I learnt from the 'Junior League' in Singapore, where they showed children program in front of the kid, while cutting their hair. I brought my laptop into the toilet and played his favourite DVD while I clip away slowly. It was so much better this time. He was 'entertained' and I was much calmer because he wasn't fussing that much.
The only hairstyle I can do is crew cut. So in the end, he looked like a junior recruit ready for BMT! We also saved $11.50 as a result.
