I finally did it!

When she was two, I said I'd do it when she was three.  Then when she was three I figured I'd just wait until she was four. 

Well, she was about six weeks shy of four when I cut her hair last night.  Her first haircut ever.  Besides the times I have cut and trimmed her bangs.  Oh, and the time last summer when she cut her own bangs.

I had been toying with the idea for a while, but some very tangled and messy hair that morning was just what I needed to make the decision.  Here's hoping those lovely curls aren't gone forever!

Before (with hair nice and wet, straight from the shower)

 After (she really likes it, even though you can't tell from this expression)

I'm excited to figure out some short styles for her since braids and piggies and ponytails are out for a while.
