One of these boys thinks he loves getting his hair cut, that is, until he is trapped there, stuck in the middle of it. Despite my best efforts, little bits of hair get in his eyes, and up his nose, and poke into his skin around his neck. It isn't long before he is fussing, and it isn't much later that it turns into full blown howling.
Once the result is more or less satisfactory, we vacuum the kid off, and into the tub he goes. A bubble bath can make almost anything better, and in a real hurry too.
What a handsome guy!
The other boy is so excited for his haircut that he rips off his shirt and pants, and laughs as he climbs up into the chair. A ticklish goofy kid plus a vibrating clippers is a bad mix. He giggles through the entire haircut. But his giggles are so wiggly that at some point I ask his Daddy to come and grab his head to hold it still for me. His giggling turns into deep belly laughing, so infectious that soon all of us are wiping tears off our faces.
What a stinker. It's all I can do to get the job done, and get that kid thrown into the tub with his brother.
Once upon a time, we used to take the clippers to one of our indoor cats twice a year, but don't even ask me about that!
