My Hair Looks Pretty?

It happened. I've had this talk with Kaycee a hundred times dreading the day that she would be curious about cutting her own hair. First of all, it is my stupidity that caused the curiosity. I decided the other night to try the whole bangs thing again. I haven't had bangs for over 10 years, well, maybe a little less. So, thinking that all was good, I left the scissors in my makeup bag sitting on the bathroom sink. Every time I went in there I had a thought to put them higher. Then, I would get distracted and realize after I was busy with something else that I didn't put them away but thought it was all good because Kaycee knows better. I fixed her hair in a ponytail this morning and got busy on the computer before going outside to play. She comes in asking if her hair looked pretty. I thought she had just tried combing it with it in a ponytail and said, yep, did you try to comb it? THEN, I walked into the bathroom and there it was, HAIR, scissors, spray bottle, and a comb. I stayed calm, afterall there was just a little and I couldn't tell that she cut it. As I pulled her ponytail out to fix it gobs of hair came off in my hands. She had cut the top and it was still in the ponytail. She has 80s bangs, high on top of the head and short. The best part of it all, I call her little act "the Alexis" because we have family pictures next week. Her cousin did the same thing to her parents, I think at the same age. BUT, she was smart enough to have a friend cut it and she hacked it good. Thank goodness we will see my mom on Monday and she can try to fix the mess that Kaycee created. Oh joy. I guess she is going back to short hair. I would like to add that I handled this little episode very calmly. I was very proud of myself!



I'll have to get a picture of her hack job and post it as well.
