Starting clean
Thai children usually have their head shaved within the first months of life...Ake is convinced he's got good hair because of it and insisted we go through the same ritual with our lot...No probs with me! There are some things I'll fight against - shaving is not it...When we did that to Andrei, my in laws were very reassuring...."Don't worry, dear..It grows back in a month." Poor Andrei was browless for months and barely managed to grow a decent mane in about 6 months.

Thankfully, Sofia has inherited Ake's hair and so I was more relaxed about getting into the whole shaving . Plus Ake did it this time. His dad was sooo nervous when shaving Andrei that he basically shaved only patches of it - he he. Poor kid looked ridiculously funny until Ake got home and finished the job. Anyhow, back to Sofia..Bless, she's growing it so fast...eyebrows are back already...

Before...




A week after...:)


Hang in there, girl!:)

Babies are always cute, no matter the hair cut. hehe She has a "what has happened here?" look though - was she quiet when Ake shaved?
