Katherine had been looking a bit shaggy for a while. Her hair reached her eyes and she was sorely in need of a trim. Given that she’ll be attending two birthday parties this weekend, we decided to take her to her first hair cut. Steve and I met Patty and Katherine tonight at the local Brat Pack hair salon at Redmond Town Plaza. This is a pretty neat children’s store that combines hair cutting, toys and clothes all in one.
Once everyone arrived, we popped Katherine onto a painted hobby horse chair (how fun!), strapped her in and draped a cute leopard cape around her shoulders. She was a champ! She didn’t cry at all during the haircut and only got upset after the hair dresser turned on a hair drier. One of the funniest moments was when the hairdresser put a big plastic clamp in her hair; the clamp was enormous. At the end of the cut, she put a rubber band in her hair, and Katherine had a pony tail sticking out the side of her hair.
Anyway, Katherine has a nice bob cut now with feathered bangs in the middle of her forehead. We were so proud of her tonight.
