My son is 11 months old and his hair is getting pretty long. Myself I think he looks adorable. I guess my situation is this... My husband keeps telling me that he is going to buzz our sons hair unless I get him a haircut! I know he wouldn't really do it but it bothers him and I'm stuck on what I should do.... any suggestions??

What can I do next?

Hi C.,

I have two sons who are now 6 & 8. I first took my oldest son to C&C Unisex Hair Design in the Danbury Fair Mall. I took my youngest to get his first haircut to Rocco's which is located on Route 37 near 1st & Last Cafe'. Both places were very good. But both of my boys now insist that they will only get their haircuts by Joe at C&C Unisex Hair Design in the Danbury Fair Mall. Joe is a true barber, and has always done a fabulous job on both my sons. Normally I do not make an appointment their number is ###-###-####. And if you ask Joe for the first lock of hair that he snips off, he'll give it to you, and you will have a great keepsake (don't forget to bring your camera). Remember, this is just one of many stepping stones in you and your childs life, and their all good. K. :o)

C.....I just went through the same thing...sort of....my son was born with a head of hair and by the time he was 5 months old he needed a trim...he looked like Donald Trump...he needed another hair cut at 9 months....with the summer heat he was sweating and his hair was getting in his eyes and it was a mess all the time. One of my friends came along with me when he got his second cut to help me out with my son...I held him while he kept my sons attention...it definitely helped. My son just turned 10 months and needs a little trim....LOL...he has more hair than most guys my age....LOL....just think if your little guy would be more comfortable with a little less hair...and please dont let your husband buzz it....my brother does that w/my nephew and it just is NEVER right....Good Luck...R.

At that age they really can't sit still long enough for a cut, and once you buzz them the hair never looks the same, plus the noise would freak him out. Enjoy the cute look for awhile, and tell the hubby it may be dangerous to put sizzors that close.

Get his hair cut! There's a really cute kid place in Park Ridge called Kool Cuts. It's totally kid friendly. My son HATES getting his hair cut, but this place will put on your child's favorite video to watch while getting the hair cut--my son got to watch Thomas and Friends!
Good luck.

Hi
not sure where you live, but KIDZKUTS in Woodbridge is where I took my little girl for her first trim...........kids love it.
He should just get a trim if the hair is nice and compliments his face and personality.
The buzz can come later when he is out getting dirt y and sweaty.
Also, Great Clips in Metuchen (Tara) is great with kids......we now go to her as a closer trim place.

hope this helps

I think you should go to enio the barber - right across from the train station- he also has a little guy and is quite good with him and I don't think he would cut it too short...

Good luck
