Sofia visits the hair salon

This morning we took Sofia for a visit to Cookie Cutters, a salon specializing in haircuts for tots. She's had her haircut before by a friend of the family and by myself, but I wanted to give her some salon treatment. I had been talking it up all week to her and she was excited to set off this morning to "get hair cut by nice lady."

The salon is set up with a number of fun chairs for the children to choose from - Sofia opted against the taxi-cab and chose the red car instead. Each station is equipped with its own small flat screen T.V. and they let the kid choose from a number of shows to watch. Sofia chose Thomas the Train, of course, and settled into the seat for her first professional salon experience.

She wasn't too keen on the lady spraying her head with the water bottle, but after some coaxing allowed her to soak her hair and trim the ends. We got 2.5 inches taken off and her hair looks adorable! Her hair was getting pretty long and while 2.5 inches may sound like a lot, it falls just right around her shoulder now and is still long enough to put back in slips and a ponytail. Brava Sofia mia!!!
