You know what this means, right? We're creatively trying to save money. The hair cutting kit cost $30 from Walmart, so we're now at the break even point. Any future haircuts will be pure savings.
Not too bad, huh? This was a stretch for me to embrace a new role as family hairdresser. I tried 9 years ago to cut Brian's hair and it was a dismal failure. I remember saying that it was worth every penny to pay a professional. But now there are two heads that need regular attention. We'll see how long this lasts....Are you doing anything out of your comfort zone to save a few bucks?

I love it!! Joshua's hair looks fantastic!! Jackson's is way to thin for me to buz and it look cute!! Im trying to save penny's by doing the DAve Ramsey envelope system.. it is working kind of! The other thing Im doing is trying Criags list for selling a few things.. I got the photos taken now I need to post:)
They look great! (I LOVE the new pic of Gracie too- soo cute!)
It will soon be second nature to do it yourself... well that's what I've found anyway! My hubby used to moan more about going to the barber than going to the dentist! Then he decided to take up cycling again and I wanted to restyle his hair so he wouldn't get 'helmet hair' (plus it was time for a rethink on the centre part!) so I got brave... and I've never looked back since.
Just don't attempt it too early in the morning, before your eyes are properly open... my friend did this and mistook the #1 setting for the #7. She whizzed the clippers down the centre of her husband's head then realised he was going to be pretty much bald for a few weeks!!!
They look really great, I am very proud of you! It does get easier each time you cut. Plus,it makes me feel like I've earned the trip to the professional for my do!
Great job!
As far as saving money, I use coupons for everything. I also stock up on things that we use when they're on sale, to save money in the long run. I often come home from the store with 14 boxes of cereal!
