I need you all to remind me of this statement. I am NOT a hairdresser! I have this really bad habit of getting sick of Hunters hair when it gets too long and impulsively cutting it myself. Usually, i use kitchen scissors and do a half-way decent job…. I think. Although my friend Christina who is a hairdresser and probably reading this is shaking her head saying, “You suck!” Well, I think my days of butchering cutting his hair are over.
The other day, I had this ‘great’ idea that I was going to use my boyfriends buzzers and give my son a cool haircut. HAHA!! Yeah! That was my intention. Now, boyfriends buzzers do not have any settings on them or anything but me and my bright idea thought that I could just ‘eyeball’ it. I was going to give him a fade going up and then trim the top. Okay, thats not so easy when there is no settings on the clippers. My sons poor head ended up looking like a checker-board! I’m not even exaggerating. So, I admit that I completely butchered his hair.
We had to take him to Supercuts to fix it, and I had done such a job on his hair, the only thing she could do was give him a whiffle. Yup, she just had to buzz the rest of his head. He does look pretty cute, but he’s so blonde that he almost looks bald. Unfortunately, I don’t have any pictures either, I think at the time I was just kicking myself over what I had done that all I could think of was getting it fixed. So, this is it. I am no longer going to attempt to cut his hair. At all.

Oh no!!! LOL!!! At least it was fixable.
At least you did it early in the year. My dad did that one summer and had to shave it. Then his head got burnt and the hair he had left ended up peeling with the burn. Boys can get away with it.
I have done that so many times to my boys
I know the feeling. Only I say that when I try to be a kitchen beautician and do my own hair!
I’m sure you’re little man looks adorable!
oh boy poor Hunter. Was he mad?
I AM a hairdresser and I have done this to my son! He is a redhead and it nmade him look like a cancer patient!
It’s so easy to go wrong when cutting hair! I’m sure he is cute with a buzz cut!
Oh, no!
I’ve trimmed my girls’ bangs a little too much before…
Oops.
Oh my goodness!
Well, you aren’t alone. I’ve done some bang trims that didn’t turn out so well. (And there was no way I was going to take pictures to prove that!)
ya…not cool!!! just a phone call away!!! i might have been busy moving but he is my little man and all…whatever!!!!
oh man, where is the picture?
