Dancing Hair

Madelyn told Ryan the other day that she wanted her hair cut. She already has short hair but she wanted it even shorter. Today Ryan took her to get her hair cut. Madelyn decided she wanted bangs. Her beautician, Julie, is also our neighbor, and when Madelyn asked to get her bangs cut and Ryan gave the okay, Julie said, "her mom is going to kill me".
Madelyn wanted me to be completely surprised when I got home from work but Ryan was wise enough to call and give me full warning in advance because he wasn't sure how I would react. The only time Madelyn had bangs was when she was a baby. That is six years, people!!! Other than that her bangs have always been the same length as the rest of her hair. I acted surprised when I first saw her and then quietly whispered to Ryan "I cannot believe she wanted bangs!!" I'm not a fan of bangs at all especially on my little girl. However, I'm slowly adjusting.
In the car this evening, Madelyn reported that she now has "dancing hair." Ryan and I asked what exactly that meant and she said it means that when she is dancing her hair will not get in her face. So for practical reasons I suppose the new do will be just fine....even though Madelyn doesn't do much dancing.

Take a look at her new do. What do you think?
