Luke's New Look

Hi everybody! Daddy and I have hats on so we don't give away our surprise new look too soon. 

I often get compliments on my hair, but it's been getting difficult to manage recently - sometimes the front won't stop sticking straight up, and sometimes the back looks like a big tangled cloud. 

So on Saturday morning we headed out to the barber's for my first haircut. Daddy got his cut first so I could see what to do. It looked quite easy, so I hopped up in the chair.

First, I got a cape on to keep the hairs off me.

Next, Mummy combed out the tangles while I explained to the barber what I wanted.

Then the barber got Daddy to put a finger on each side of my head, in case I made any sudden moves!

Finally, we were ready to start snipping!

It took quite a while, but luckily they have some good magazines to read. And they don't mind you taking the cape off if it gets too hot.

Finally, I was ready to admire my new do! I thought it was very stylish, but one thing was bothering me.

Getting those wee bits of cut hair up your nose is really tickly!

Then, looking dapper, I headed out to show the world.
