HORRIBLE CUTTING SKILLS!

So a couple weeks ago Dax's hair was getting a little long to do anything with so I decided I would just take the buzzer to it to make it a little shorter. After I was done I got looking at it and decided that it didn't look so good but I left it alone. It will grow back right?

Well last Sunday I was doing Dax's hair again and in the back by his neck his hair was just a little long it kind of did the flip out thing even with gel. So I decided I would get some scissors and just cut it off in a straight line. Not that hard. That didn't work very well either. In fact it looked so awful that when I got to church Scott's first words were "What did you do to his hair?"

That night I asked his mom if she would help me fix his hair, just buzz it to even it all out. With two giant holes later in the back of his head I decided I'd had enough and took him to my hair lady. She so kindly showed me how to use the clippers and then take a comb and some fine scissors to get the stray long ones. But I am not to do this without the help of my husband to help distract him. Dax has officially enrolled into the military. We are such proud parents!

That is hilarious! Chris cut Jakes hair for awhile because I was too scared. And my sister Rachel cut Case's hair for awhile until I got brave enough to do his too.

This sounds like my experience once trying to learn how to cut Dustin's hair. I almost shaved off a lot more than hair. I gave up on being his hair stylist then and there.
