Full course haircut

The boys had a haircut today. Now Oliver tells me he needs a haircut. He tried the three course haircut this time.

Cut:






















Shampoo - this was something new!









And blow dry:





Big smile with a new haircut :)



Luca was very good too. He didn't need to sit on my lap. He sat there by himself like a big boy!

BYO DVD

After a playdate in the indoor playground I took Oliver to a DVD shop (he has been asking for it for such a long time!) to get him the Cars 2 movie. He was so so happy and was willing to have his hair cut at his hairdresser (also in the Mall).

It's starting! Very serious business to him:









His hair was so thick he needed a clip to hold some excess hair. Of course he didn't mind at all, he was enjoying his own DVD!

Humm a little bit short...

As you know my boys have had loads of hair since they were born and it grows so fast. It has been 7 months since Luca was born. His fringe got too long and started to poke his eyes. So I decided it was time for a little trim (I really didn't want to, it was just so soft and nice). I got scissors out and took a bit? off... I thought but when I took my hands off from his fringe it turned out I chopped it a little too much.

Before:


After:




Well at least it is not annoying his eyes anymore.

Family excursion to...

Today we tried something new. The three of us visited a hair salon together. One of our friends recommended this place so we thought why not try it. We booked a room just for us.

Oliver went first in this cool jeep chair!  He just woke up from his nap so he wasn't too sure what was happening but with a DVD playing Tom & Jerry in front of him, he was pretty content sitting and getting his hair done.





You can see how much hair he had... this time we decided to go for quite short.



I love the short hair on him - now he looks more like Matthew I think.

Matthew had his done very quickly and it was my turn! I hadn't had a haircut since I was in Japan in early March so was looking forward to it. The best part was getting my hair washed! The lady was so good, combining the wash and the massage.

I love this sitting in the chair and getting my hair washed (instead of lieing down during the wash, more comfortable, especially with my big big belly).



I am very pleased with the outcome : )



Matthew and me-looking good ha?

High-tech haircut

It was time for Oliver to have a haircut again (well...he needed it a long time ago).
This is how you give your child a haircut these days.
In a hair salon, with an Ipad playing Mickey Mouse Clubhouse!!



He stayed still for so long, it is amazing what technology can do to the kids!

And this is how much he got rid of - he sure is my child he's got lots of hair...



Here is Oliver after the haircut - I think he looks more Western now (Looks more like Matthew?)



The side is nice and clean too : )

Oops

This afternoon when I was busy vacuuming (I quite enjoy housework when I am on holiday as we don't get to / need to do it in Brunei, it is kind of my holiday activity!) I heard Runa screaming from downstairs. I almost got a heart attack when I heard her calling me. She was supposed to look after Oliver for me...

When I came downstairs I saw my son soaked in cold water (with his clothes on). Runa said she thought he was just in the hallway but actually he went into the bathroom and turned the shower tap on and just stood under it as he was so shocked...

I quickly dried him and put new clothes on. By the time he got warmer it was time for his nap. When he woke up he looked a bit different - his mohawk was back!







Matthew thinks he looks like Hamish, what do you think??

You look younger

You often get a comment from friends when you have a hair cut - "You look much younger". Oliver too got that comment today. "He looks younger with his hair cut" Even he is only 18months old - still looks younger!

Strange animal in the kitchen

I found this strange animal in our kitchen the other day.

Rhinoceros





Triceratops





He looked strange but very very cute!

Yes, time for a haircut

Oliver before the haircut, yes I know, he really needed one.

We decided before his First Birthday, Oliver should have a hair cut. Some people told me he has such  nice hair and long hair suits him but I know it will grow back very quickly. I just wanted him to look nice and boyish on his birthday. So off we went!

Luckily we managed to get a slot at the very busy Jacky's hair studio yesterday.

Oliver loved sitting on the proper chair and really enjoyed (or didn't notice) his haircut. Last time he had a trim, he sat on the waiting sofa and cried a bit. This time - no tears, no scream : )
You can see how relaxed he was from these photos!



Jacky cutting Oliver's hair



This is so much fun!!

Unfortunately I forgot to take fresh-after-a-hair-cut shot (yes Boel, I am listening to you...) but you can see his new hair style on his birthday post.

Time for a hair cut??

Oliver has had a crazy amount of hair since he was born.
Maybe time for a hair cut?! Or should we leave it wild and let it grow even more? What do you think?

Crazy hair dude

My gorgeous boy...

Can you see the difference?

Oliver two days ago



Oliver today

( Oops he has the same clothes on. We don't have many long sleeve tops for him)

Oliver's first haircut

This afternoon Oliver and I had an appointment at Jacky's hair salon.
Oliver definitely needed a hair cut!












Today was my hash night and when I came home it was already his bed time so I will take his after hair cut photo tomorrow and post it to you.
