If your little one screams mightily at the sight of a hair salon, why not give her a haircut yourself and save money.
Tools you need:
Tools you need:
- Pair of scissors
- Plastic comb
- Soft brush
- Water sprayer
- Powder
- Blow dryer (optional)
- Cape (optional)
Heres how:
1. Wash hair then towel dry, or wet hair using water sprayer. Girls hair is usually fine and smooth, so scissor blades may slide easily as you snip. Avoid this by dampening the hair. Have your child wear a cape so snipped hairs won't fall on her neck and shoulder's, making her itch. Some girls, though, find cape suffocating, so don't force if she resists.
2 .Comb then section hair. Sectioning helps to keep snipping organized. With a comb, part hair in the middle into two sections, but leave hair around the forehead and nape unsectioned. Coil up the left and right sections, then clip in place.
3. Trim smaller sections. Work first with the unsectioned part near the nape. With a comb, gather a small section and hold securely between the index and middle fingers. Guiding the scissors with your fingers, trim hair to desired length. This technique also positions your hand between the scissors and child's head to shield her from the blades should she move. Finish off this part entirely before moving to another section of hair. Once done with the nape, unclip a section of hair on one side of the head. Use the same technique to trim this section. Use length of hair at the nape to guide how long the other sections should be. Comb hair down once in a while to check length against the finished sections.
For an even cut, remember

For an even cut, remember
- Don't cut too much hair at once.
- Dampen hair with water sprayer once it begins to dry.
- Have someone hold the lass's head still to ensure a more accurate cut.
4. Trim bangs last. Comb bangs downward. Little by little, trim across, maintaining an even line. To keep bangs wispy, not too full and thick, fringe to 1/2 inch deep unless you want it longer. As a finish, you can blow dry the hair to add volume.
