No More Tangles

Jordyn has had the most beautiful long, curly, dark red hair ever since she was little. It's been sort of a signature trait of hers.

But what most people don't realize is the intense maintenance of this THICK, LONG hair. Every morning and night for the past few years has resulted in tears and tangles. Plus, it is HOT to have a blanket of hair on your head - she's got a ton!

So we made a decision. We cut it short! I was nervous, but also ready for SOME relief from the crying every time we washed, fixed or brushed her hair! Plus, it will be so much better for swimming this summer. She was really excited and had not an ounce of hesitation to do it!

We just went in the bathroom and I chopped off her ponytail, which left it an a-line cut. I felt so wierd at first doing it, but I really like it on her now. She looks older and it's "fun" with her spunky personality. The only sad part is how much less curl her hair has now.

It was cute, Lexi kept saying "Jo, you look beautiful.....but I don't want my hair cut!". She insists on having long hair. Which is fine since hers has WAY less snarls.
