My 3 year old worked up the courage for her first haircut and Alicia was awesome! My daughter spent the rest of the day showing off and talking up her beautiful haircut to everyone: employees and shoppers at the grocery store, people on the phone (who could not see it), and is still riding that emotional high while we should be getting ready for bed.
No matter the subject-"But do you like my haircut? It didn't even take that long, and it didn't hurt at all!"
