A Lesson in Hair-Cuttery


  

~ My Lovely Sister ~











BEFORE >

(By the way, my sister made the scarf she is wearing.  It's one of the products of her new hobby "Knitabits.")









  When cutting hair, there are some definite dos and don'ts.  Although it wasn't my "furst" time cutting my sister's hair (it was my second), I learned some valuable tips from the experience that I thought you might benefit from :)

   Never! 
Make your sister laugh and then expect to cut her hair in a straight line
*
*
*
  Never!
Cut her bangs while she is drinking

*
*
*

Never!

Poke her in the eye with the scissors
*
*
*
Never!
Get too close to her eyelashes
...
or eyebrows
*
*
*


this next is a big one


*
*
*
Never!
say "oops"
*
*
*

AND

*
*
*
Always!
Check to make sure your spray bottle is on the 'mist' setting so that you do not direct-stream water into her ear.


I hope you've found these tips helpful, but the real secret to my success............ is my sister :)  No matter how many tips you get on hair-cuttery, you'll never meet with as much success on your second try as an amateur hair-cutter as I have with my ever-encouraging, ever-gracious sister.  

And by the way, her new haircut is a big hit with the family ;)
