Hair Today, Bangs Tomorrow.

When Amy was born she was bald. Well, she did have some peach fuzz but it was so blond and so short that she might as well have been bald. Tara came to me shortly after Amy was born very concerned because, "if Amy doesn't grow hair before she is in Kindergarten all the kids will make fun of her." I laughed about it at the time, but now I'm starting to wonder if Tara has more foresight than I give her credit for.

I've been afraid to do anything with or to Amy's hair because she doesn't have much and it doesn't grow and as an added plus it breaks very easily. However, I've finally heard enough of, "You have to do something about that hair." And looking at this picture I can understand why.


We are trying bangs. Maybe that will help a little. if not, they'll grow out by the time she turns eight...

Wow she looks so much older! I like the bangs. And her little face in that top pic is so cute and grumpy looking.

Hilarious. I can totally relate. Aubrey gets that birds nest at the back of her head, too, although her hair is not as long as Amy's.

The bangs are really cute!

Took FOREVER for Emma to grow hair!
Her hair brakes off really easy too!
I found the kids shampoo really makes it worse, so I have to use grown up shampoo and conditioner and pray she keeps her eyes shut! It has helped!

So cute! Can't believe our little ones are going to be 3 in a couple weeks. Where has the time gone?

Lori, thanks for the shampoo/conditioner suggestion. I'm gonna try that.

Brooke said...

I love the hair! (both before and after...) I still need to send you the pics of when the girls were over here. sorry!)

Katy said...

That's precious! Too bad she and Jackson can't swap hair....his grows so fast that everytime I turn around I am tempted to start braiding it!

She's so cute! I love the bangs. I used to have fine,wispy blonde hair like that: I was so jealous of your dad's thick hair. Mom just kept cutting it short so it would thicken up. Now look at us! I credit my now thick hair to one of the following: mom cutting it a lot when I was little, having 7 kids (they say pregnancy changes your hair some times), moving to a humid climate, or the last shall be first principle. Come visit us, and see if the climate change helps.
