Kailee's First Haircut (Aug. 15th 2009)

So Kailee had never had a haircut before, and it's finally starting to grow at a pace a little faster than a snail travels, so I thought I'd take her in for a haircut. She is so great to sit still while she gets her hair done every morning, so I just KNEW she'd do great. I had heard of this cute salon just for kids named "Cookie Cutters" and that sealed the deal! We had this big pep talk about how "Only special haircutting people can cut hair." (I would DIE if she cut her own hair...) Well she wanted them to wash her hair (which they charge extra for because most kids despise that part) She climbs up this fire truck and lays in it with her head in the sink while they use the most scrumptious shampoo and conditioner. (I swear I want some to use on her every day... I'm sure they do that on purpose.) Then with nice clean hair, she climbs into this fantastic pink hot rod and dons a penguin cape to get her hair trimmed. The personal TV in front of her is playing the Barbie movie she chose to watch. Less than 10 minutes later, her trim was complete! Leslie, her stylist, said that Kailee is the most well-behaved 2 yr old client she has ever had! Leslie put some mousse and a flipped pony in her hair and sprayed it to smell "like a cookie". Once she was done, Leslie told Kailee to look in the mirror to see what she thinks. Kailee smiled a big smile of approval and climbed out of her car. *Note: the pink car was strategically placed next to a wall of darling bows and headbands that cost a small fortune, but are very tempting for moms to look at while girlies get their hair cut.* Next stop? The fantastic slide and play area they provide for the kids to play on while you pay. On our way out, Kailee got a balloon with a sucker and cookie cutter attached at the bottom. All in all it was AWESOME! Before we were even out of the parking lot, Kailee told me TWICE that she had so much fun! I love her so much!
