Haircut Week

Last week, all of us had a haircut. Me and didi on Thursday, PaPa on Saturday and XY on Sunday. Didi needed a haircut so I brought him to our regular salon (the one with the toy car). When I told him in the morning that he's going for a haircut, he said "I dowan". I didn't expect that as when I asked him just for fun, he'd say "Ok". I reminded him about the toy car at the salon. And that did the trick. :-)

At the salon, I didn't see the toy car. So I asked the lady if they still have it. She pushed it out from behind and it was very dusty. I guess they've not used it for a long time. While didi's hair was being cut, I sat next to him, getting mine cut too. I just needed a trim, so I knew it wouldn't take too long. And I figured he'd be happy waiting in the toy car if he finished first. Kakak was there to help 'reinforce' the girl's instructions -- don't move, look down, look straight, etc.

I can now conclude that to CE, haircut is NOT equals to lollipop. :-D Although he's been rewarded with a lollipop every time after a haircut, he didn't ask for it when he got home. I think we did mention it during the haircut but he totally forgot about it.

As for jie jie, she was not too happy to get a haircut. She wanted to keep her hair a little longer so that she can tie them up. But I prefer short hair, much easier to manage. So I asked the girl to cut back the same hairstyle (bob cut) and this time, with a straight fringe. XY was happy again when I told her she looks like a China doll. hahaha So easy to pacify a vain pot.
