A Quarantine Haircut

We have been thankful for SO many things during this time of Shelter in Place, which is still continuing here in Wisconsin until May 26th.

One of those things we are thankful for is that I have always cut the guys’s hair.

Blake tells me of all the guys at work who are shaggy and in desperate need of a haircut because the hair salons are not allowed to be open right now!

I usually do not cut girl’s hair, but I somehow, with Blake’s encouragement, talked myself into giving Eliza a haircut.

Her hair was so long, AND SO BEAUTIFUL!

Once the spring weather arrived and Eliza was outside more than inside, her hair became a constant battle and almost unmanageable.

After her bath one night when her hair was freshly washed and wet, I cut over five inches off of her silky long hair.

After I cut the length off going straight across, I blended the ends in hopes that it would lay nicely on her back.

We are SO glad I took this risk!

Eliza’s hair is very easy to handle now and we have not had any tears from her about taking care of her hair since that day!

Now if I could just figure out how to cut my own hair, ha, ha!

Quarantine life and its challenges, although the challenges are slight for us here at Twin Oaks, continue on!

I hope everyone is doing well – even if you need a haircut!

Praise the Lord for some warmer weather, sunshine, green grass and budding trees.

It’s easier to stay positive when you can spend hours outside in the sunshine!

Happy quarantine Monday, friends!
