Sloane's first haircut

My plan has always been to let Sloane's hair grow as long as possible and leave it untouched.  Let's face it, I had some pretty bad haircuts as a child.  Some were my choice (the pixie cut), and some were not (the mullet).  My only defense was that it was the 80's.  I wanted to save Sloane this pain and let her have long, beautiful hair.  Sloane does not always agree to having her hair combed and brushed.  It is pretty much a daily battle.  Getting a girl to put on a bow is a huge battle.  I swear that every morning Sloane will go to school with a perfect set of pigtails, but when I pick her up she looks like a cat attacked her while she was napping.  So, it was time for a little trim.  I took Sloane to a local kids' hairdressing studio, and she got to sit in a car and watch a movie while she got her trim.  Sloane was surprisingly a perfect little client.  All in all, she only had about an inch cut off.  We kept a few locks of hair as a keepsake and got a few pictures.
