PSA: Hair

Herewith let it be known that, if a four and half year old child has an irretrievable rat's nest of hair in the aftermath of the application of too much ice-cream and other sticky stuff, it is somewhat less than advisable to decide to give said child a haircut after one glass of wine, as the results will require remediation.

That is all.

Oh, dear. But perhaps the time was right for a new hairstyle?

Ha! Do we get pictures? Or is this something best not seen?

Yes, advisable.
Ever hear of Infusium leave-in treatment...for next time...you know, after the hair grows out and all...

Yes, two glasses of wine is recommended.

Are you going to blame someone else? I hate having to face the professionals after I've done some hacking.

In fact, I have to take my dog to the groomer next week, and she's going to raise her eyebrows at the "corrections" I made.

Just refer to it as her "summer hair style".

Oh, pictures, please, so we can all enjoy a good laugh with OUR glasses of wine.

At least it's just hair...it will grow...and maybe before the authorities notice!

MadMad said...

Or have two... and then you won't care! Hahaha!

That's exactly why I start with the professionals--I know that's where I'll end up anyway.

Sorry for your troubles. But this shit is funny. :)
And confirms my belief that kids and ice cream is a dangerous combination.

Obviously, one glass of wine was not enough! Do we get to see pictures?

You're right. The kid probably needs at least two glasses of wine to sit still enough not to cause a disaster.

Furrow said...

Oh, wait. You meant after you drank the wine. Got it.
