Curious George Gets A Hair Cut

Curious George gets a hair cut...by his inexperienced wife Liz! This was the third time in my life cutting boys' hair. The first time was when I was 14-years-old and I cut my brother, David's hair. I remember it not looking that great, in fact it was pretty terrible...it looked like I had put a bowl on his head and cut around the edges, haha. Luckily David didn't care, but when we visited our Grandma June I remember her saying something like, "Boys' hair these days..." The second time was actually George's hair right after we got married in 2008...it went much better than my first experience, but I'd forgotten all I'd learned since then.

Before Liz got a hold of the clippers...


I was fairly unsuccessful not laughing at how awful the in-between stage looked. My nervous giggling made George feel very insecure about my hair clipping skills.

See? No need to worry...I thought it turned out really well. Look at that amazing blending job, ow OW! Dang George is GEORGEOUS :)

Good job Liz! It's so scary the first few times. I had to stop the first time because I was on the verge of tears. We had to go up to Steve's parents house for his dad to finish. haha! I'm such a wuss. You did a great job!!

P.S. Was it on purpose the my "word verfication" below is "dumbi?" I'm O-ffended.

Hey great job! I blame my divorce on a botched haircut. Seriously. I was cutting his hair and nicked him bald, about a square inch right in the middle. I didn't know what to do so I just kept on going and told him later! It was awful, and the beginning of the end! Ha ha!

I love the David story, so funny!

nice job Liz. Sometimes you just have to make a few mistakes to figure out how to do it. I think you did a great job
