First ever big boy haircut

It's a time of firsts again for Rian. Last night Rian had his first ever big boy haircut in Supercuts. Mumma was super proud as Rian did not cry at all. He sat through his entire haircut, all alone on the chair, without holding my finger. Rian listened to the hair dresser uncle and did not even flinch at the machines. In fact he smiled when the trimmer started and said Mumma, it's like a bee, buzz buzz :-) Rian loved the animal print cover around him, and commented on how the hair is falling down. Mumma of course reminded him about all things falling down due to gavity ;-) Mumma and Rian got their haircut in the same salon at the same time. Super efficient, we were out of the home and back in within 55 minutes!

Rian had his first hair cut in Little Scissors in Fremont when he was 14.5 months old. We've always gone back to Little Scissors as Rian developed a fancy to the little "cars" he got to sit in. This place was more than a 40 mile roundtrip for me, and always had to be scheduled on Saturday mornings, since week day evening travel to Fremont is beyond me, thanks to the traffic. I also tried Snip-It's in Palo Alto once, but as a parent had a horrible experience: more than an hr of wait, bad station for Rian with no TV, and let's not forget: a huge price tag.

We're so happy now, the whole family can go have haircuts at Supercuts any time!

  1. Yay Congrats Rian on the milestone. Family haircut sounds a good idea.

    Recently R and I tried, and Chucky was behind us with "my turn my turn" May be next time we all could plan a family hair cut :)

  2. Wow Seena that's so cool :-) So good to know Chucky is already enthusiastic about it! Kids grow up so quickly, na?

    Rian's first haircut and subsequent few were complete "meltdowns" when we used to hold him tight for 5 minutes. He has come a long way from there, to now sitting on his own. As a mom there is a bit of sadness in admitting that he doesn't need to "hold my finger" anymore... sob sob.
