Ben decided that he needed a haircut this week and he didn't want to go to the barber. Our neighbors have a set of clippers, so we borrowed them and I went to work. I figured it couldn't be that hard. I mean, I worked at a beauty shop in high school and saw the ladies do hundreds of haircuts. I must be a pro, by now. Plus when I was in college, I cut a friend's hair in my dorm room and it didn't turn out so bad (of course, he just wanted it buzzed all over, so there was no way to mess that up!)
Anyway, Benj just wanted it a little shorter on the bottom. He can't stand it when it gets long on his neck and over his ears. I tried to get that gradual change thing that boys have going on. Well, it turns out I'm not as good at this as I had hoped! He turned out looking like a little boy with a bald spot! He says it's not that bad, but really...I think we should have just paid the $10 and had a professional do it. It's so worth it! Here's a picture of the back of Benny's head. He's not totally bald in that spot...it's just a little thinner :-) Good thing his hair grows fast!

Ben's accustomed to haircuts like that! Took care of that before a Scout Camp one year!
I didn't even notice the haircut! I will have to check it out today! Good thing he will be fishing out -- he can just wear a hat.
Oh, it looks stellar! All that beauty shop experience--they should just give you a licence already!
