Yup, we took Bry to a kids' hair salon for his first "real" trim. I've cut Bry's hair probably 3 or 4 times already. Kid's hair growth is phenomenal. The first time was on his one-month birthday, for the traditional Chinese hair trimming ceremony. I took the cautious approach on that one and just trimmed up his baby mullet a little bit. I got a little bolder with subsequent haircuts, but I'm obviously not trained as a stylist.
For his first "real" haircut, I'd say that Bry did remarkably well. The woman cutting his hair left a lot to be desired, however. Her crankiness made us wonder why she ever signed up to cut kids' hair. Plus, the mother of her previous customers barged in on Bry's haircut because her daughter's bangs had been cut crookedly. Even I could tell they didn't look right.
Figure 2: Baby getting a little more worried that this woman is totally going to ruin his faux hawk.

Sam's first haircut was also at a kid's place, done by someone who shouldn't be around kids! He turned on a pair of clippers right next to Sam's head, without warning Sam (or me) first and totally freaked Sam out. Sam spent the next four years screaming bloody murder through every hair cut! He's just now wanting to get his hair cut, as long as he gets to pick out the style--which has to be "cool, but not too handsome" because he doesn't want girls to "fall in love" with him.
Paul's was done at the same place, luckily by a person who seemed to understand kids much more. Paul loves getting his hair cut, because they give him tootsie rolls while he's getting it cut. (that's his favorite part--who cares about getting to sit in a fire truck and watch tv--we're all about the sugar!)
Sam's already quite the lady killer, huh?
