Isaac's 1st Haircut

So, on December 25th (“our Christmas Eve”), before Michael got home from the hospital I got the boys all bathed and gave a couple of them haircuts. This was Isaac’s first haircut. I think it turned out pretty well. And Kolby did a decent job of taking pictures for me while I was cutting Isaac’s hair in the bathtub (especially since I kept telling Kolby to stand back from the water with the camera). I still prefer Isaac’s hair parted and combed over to one side. And I was glad that he still has those cute little curls behind his ears when his hair dries. He’s such a cutie!

Curls

For any of you who’s children have curly hair and you don’t know what to do with it, I finally figured it out. I love Camden’s hair, but if I don’t put any products in it, it just gets all fuzzy. So I’ve been putting gel in his hair for a while now, which makes it stay nice and curly, but the thing I didn’t like about the gel is that it made his curls kind of hard and crunchy. My friend, Rachel Roberts, who is a hairdresser, suggested mixing some conditioner with the gel. I tried it a while ago, and it works great. His hair is much softer, but the gel still keeps it from getting fuzzy. Plus, for some reason it seems like the gel-conditioner mixture holds the curls a lot longer than just gel alone. I just had to share this info for any of you who might be wondering what to do with your kid’s curly hair. Thanks, Rachel!
