"Just a little off the top..."

Some things in life are better left up to the professionals. A hair cut is one of those things. What started out as, "Let's buy a set of clippers with all of the guards so we can give Evan a hair cut," ended up like this:

















"Cue ball" was not our intention. No, it's not shaved, but it's pretty darn close! Turns out, the set of clippers we bought wasn't supposed to be for cutting hair, but for trimming. And, turns out that half way through the hair cut, they ran out of a charge. It was near dark outside and past Evan's bed time. So, then we tried to use our hair cutting scissors to trim the top. Jason tried. I tried. It was hot outside. Evan was a sticky, hairy mess. It didn't look great, but it didn't look horrible. Our options were to either wait to take him to the salon the next day or to use Jason's clippers (with a very small guard) and buzz the whole thing. Believe it or not, I was actually the one that said "just go ahead, buzz it." I mean, it's only hair, right? It'll grow back.

Oh please let it grow back soon.

Hair or no hair, he's still a cutie pie. And yes, it will grow back. Luis got a similar haircut this morning - but not quite as short.
