Haircut

There are only a few noises Brody can't stand and the buzzing of a clippers is one of them. He also HATES being restrained. Brody does not like when you mess with his head. It is almost impossible to actually do his hair and he has never worn a hat since he was about 6 months old. Combining all those elements equals Brody's idea of a living hell - A HAIRCUT.

Haircuts are the absolute worst things in the world for Brody and for the people giving him a haircut. At no point during the haircut does Brody realize he isn't being hurt and it isn't a big deal. So he doesn't calm down at all. And with each haircut, somehow, Brody's phobia of haircuts have gotten progressively worse. On Sunday, Jake's brother, Josh just happened to be over and Becky was also there. They were witnesses to his hysterics (and witnesses to CPS - in case a neighbor called due to the screams - that we were not hurting our son - so far no one has called)!!

It took 1 person to cut the hair and 3 to hold Brody! We buzz his head a couple times a year cause trimming it with scissors just isn't an option. But as you can see from the pictures it was just getting too long. Since he doesn't let me do it his hair ends up looking really crazy most of the time. Here are the after and before pictures (that is just the order at which Blogger put them on).
