To cut or not to cut?
I like it short because it’s cute, less tangly, and looks fuller and healthier. But she still has her baby cheeks and I feel like the short hair makes her face look really, really wide.
I like it long because it’s easy to pull back into a pony tail or pig tails. I don’t really know how to do girls hair dos in other ways, though. Also, Sadie hates to have hair ties in her hair – she says it hurts and often times will pull them out.
Why is this such a hard decision?
Johnson Family - Sadie is too cute! I can see why it is a hard choice to keep it long or cut it short. The length of her hair does give her a different look, but either one is adorable. The good thing is hair grows back. It might be nice to have a cute, summer hair cut. I’m actually considering the same thing with my own hair. This heat is making it miserable to have long, thick hair hanging on my neck.
Sharla - I just love short haircuts on little girls. Beyond that though, I keep Natalie’s hair short because she doesn’t like to have it done. I figure it’s one power struggle that is easy to avoid. It sounds like Sadie may be similar in that. She is such a cute girl with her hair at any length. You can’t go wrong.
Ben - I think we should get a “Back-to-School” hair cut, or in this case “going-to-school-for-the-first-time” hair cut. I think it will help her feel special and cute for her friends at school, and ease the transition period. Just my thoughts…
My (Almost) Daily Reminder - Sadie’s cuteness will outshine any haircut you give her. Or not give her. I don’t think her face looks wide at all with the short hair. Although I am partial to long hair, I think the shorter route might be better for Sadie because of her tendency to pull out the hair-ties. And I really like Ben’s idea to have a “going to school for the first time” hair cut.
