I love taking Carson to get his haircut. His hair is still pretty fine and thin and I would still love to see if it would have curls but I can’t let it get that long because it gets fuzzy as it grows out.
So back to haircuts.
I’ve started taking him to the barber downtown Ann Arbor. I don’t let Rick take him when Rick gets his hair cut, because Rick goes to Fantastic Sam’s and Great Clips.
The barber has a fridge in the corner that has beer in it and it’s my goal in life to be offered a beer when we walk in.
Carson has his favorite barber and climbs right up in the chair. But as we wait for that guy, it’s HYSTERICAL to see Carson hang out and read ESPN magazine and point out all the pictures of Denard on the wall (Carson is convinced that Denard gets his dreads cut at this place…another “what are we going to do when Denard’s gone” situation). I love that every time we go in there, they ask if he wants to watch cartoons, and every time we say that he’s good with ESPN (and it helps when it’s a Saturday morning in the fall, like this one was – the morning of game at Nebraska – and it’s ESPN College Game Day on the tv – he is mesmerized).
And I love that they have Washtenaw Dairy donuts on Saturday mornings.
I’m still waiting to be offered a beer but my time will come, I hope. :-)
