Mya's First Haircut!

As I mentioned in my last post we took Mya to get her first haircut ever today. Wes' cousin, Ashley, works at All About You in Fort Loramie and we had asked if she could do something with Mya's poor hair. It is very thin and looks like it is breaking on top so it sticks up all over the place. The back grew in really funny and was all uneven and scraggly looking. Ash said sure and that she could do something. Our appointment was at 4:00 and we ended up having to wake Mya up from her nap to get up there. This was probably perfect planning because she was still pretty sleepy and out of it. She sat there completely stone-faced the whole time. It was hilarious. We invited YaYa and YoYo to come watch too and so she had a lot of people she knows and loves trying to make her say something or smile but she just sat there so serious. I was okay with that though because I really thought she was going to be scared and cry. Ash ended up cutting about an inch off the back and stacking it into a little bob. She trimmed the sides so that they were even. She couldn't do anything about the already broken pieces but told us about this spray she uses to hold them down. We bought some of it so hopefully that helps. She said they may not necessarily be broken but instead new growth underneath. She also said that cutting her hair will help it grow and be more even. She looks absolutely adorable and older and I LOVE how it turned out! I have an envelope with her little hair clippings to put in her baby book. The last picture I was trying to get Ashley with Mya but she would not look at the camera.....little stinker! Ash gave them each a new comb to take home and a sucker. It was a success and hopefully we will be able to have Ash do all of their cuts in the future
