My girls all took turns cutting their own at one point or another and it was usually only the bangs thankfully,still not cute, but better than a chunk out of the side of their heads LOL<br /><br />My youngest even cut the cats far and one set of her whiskers. Poor kitty survived a lot with that child.Gingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10418918073683469543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29822720.post-49186780747885249222011-10-14T08:24:09.049-06:002011-10-14T08:24:09.049-06:00I got a good chuckle out of the hair stories.

When my daughters were younger, we had an instance where the younger was angry at the elder, so she cut the elder's left ponytail off just below the rubber band. A couple of years later, the younger one wanted bangs and cut them off at the scalp.MotherThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03166276610825725009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29822720.post-63764538310743412902011-10-13T10:21:21.853-06:002011-10-13T10:21:21.853-06:00Maybe Hayley & Katie will get paid to cut hair...Maybe Hayley & Katie will get paid to cut hair some day. :-) <br /><br />Cute pictures at the park!

It must be some sort of rite of passage to cut your sister's hair. My sister is 6 years older than me, so she knew better. But my best friend was the victim of an older sister's haircut. And to fix it she really did look like a boy. <br /><Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13069417648988456196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29822720.post-64801734443225134352011-10-10T09:16:06.459-06:002011-10-10T09:16:06.459-06:00I think the short hair looks adorable on them.

In the great scheme of things, it is only hair and it does make for great memories ahead.<br />Love that the lake is re-filled.

I had a few of those in my day as a hairdresser and some were cut right to the scalp in the front! Not much you could do with that but let it grow!<br /><br />So glad to see the lake back full again.

Just felt like checking in on you this morning. :o)<br /><br />I don't remember ever cutting my or my sister's hair, but I know every doll that we had didn't keep it very long. I always cut off their hair, took their clothes off and generally mistreated them.
