How Haircuts Are Going

This Friday, we flash forward and see how haircuts go for Mikey these days. He is independent and even requests haircuts when he feels like his hair is getting too long. He doesn’t like it to get in his face or over his ears.

This time, he hadn’t been in a while and there was so much hair on the floor, I snapped a picture. He was patient and haircuts around Halloween always offer the chance of some leftover candy treats…he chose a mini Hershey bar.

I hope these Flash Forward Friday posts help you see that all the work you’re doing will pay dividends over time. Keep at it, parents!
