Luke has more hair than any 5 year old should, and lucky for him, it grows forward into a lovely helmet shape, Recently he very reluctantly agreed to a haircut on his terms. The cut could only be performed at our city's finest - Great Clips. He also insisted that the stylist NOT use texturizing scissors. Huh? Who taught him about texturizing scissors? That alone is cause for concern. However, he looks very handsome post-shearing.
Now Dosen. Please look back at photo 1. Granted this picture was taken late evening on a very hot day. Maybe that explains the fuzzy pencil effect? Not sure, but we have so many products to tame his locks. Not a one seems to work. We want to let his hair grow, but up close, he's got some real craziness to deal with. I even joined an African hair support group blog.
I'm thinking it's time we seek professional help. If you have haircare tips to share, we are obviously in need of hearing them!

Oops, deleted my post somehow! Anyway . . . an African hair support blog? Really? That there is an animal out there in cyberspace shouldn't surprise me, I guess. Can't say I'm really surprised that Luke knows what texturizing scissors are either. After all, he knows who his mama is, for sure.
This post has officially made my day & if it wasn't for the African hair support group combined with the texturizing scissors I'm not sure it would have. Thanks you! :)
That is too funny...I was just thinking after your last post of asking you if you had cut Dosen's hair yet! What to do??? Levi's curly Q's are getting bigger and bigger! :)
Merica & Jake!!! Your boys are so precious! So glad I found your blog! Hope you are doing well!!

Last night Dosen's hair seemed extra puffy to me and Luke told me I didn't wash his right. Just giving you a little confirmation.
I honestly loved everything about this story. So classic!
You guys are to funny, love the new haircut.

Merica! So good to see your blog! I hope you're doing well...from reading it seems you are...Dosen and Luke-precious!
People keep telling me to just cut Josiah's four inches off. I just can't do that yet, so I just comb it out every day. I love his little curls and can't bring myself to cut them. I do like the Blended Beauty Satin Detangler. It works well. I also have a leave in conditioner that helps tame his locks.
With Love,
Penelope
