Brave

My sister and brother in law like to dress up in costume to go to movies.  The fact that she has long red curly hair made it a given that they would dress up to go see brave.  

My kids were very excited to join her, so we all did.  

There were great preparations to be made to get us ready.  Daphne sewed her first dress (with my help) and she and I made kilts for the boys to wear.  

Ocean was game to let us fix his hair.

It is so light that we had to apply the dye twice to get the depth that we wanted.

We also had fun sculpting it.

Here he is a red head.

Then he let us set it on rollers and sat under the dryer to get some curl.

I think we did pretty good.

Fun With Hair

One day I had a little extra bleach after a hair appointment, so we had a little fun.

Harvey got a large gold splash in the front.  

He loves it and now wants all his hair gold.

Julius got gold tips.

And likes his hair in a faux hawk.

"I am cutting my hair."

So said Julius this morning.  

I looked at him and asked, "You are cutting your hair?"  

"Yes, with this knife."  He replied holding out the scissors he had picked up.  

And sure enough, there was a lighter spot on the top of his head 

and some hair on the floor.

I guess it has gotten to long for him.

Hair cuts

 Last week, as I was trimming H's hair, J decided he wanted to cut his own hair.  At first I stopped him, but he insisted that he wanted to do it.  Then I got the camera...

After his turn.  D and I took turns cutting it.  Here he is with his new hair cut.  

Good thing he looks so cute bald.

Upon seeing J's new hair, H wanted to be bald too.

When we were done he said, "Now I am not sweaty any more."
