I usually take big sister K to a kid-friendly place called Snip-Its in Princeton to get her hair cut. She's long overdue for one, so I was planning to take her this Friday, when my half-day Fridays start. Last week, I went onto the Snip-Its website and much to my dismay, I learned that the Princeton location no longer existed. During the car ride home that day, I told big sister K that we couldn't go to Snip-Its anymore because they closed down. Maybe I should've waited to deliver the news to her, but big sister K did not take it well at all. She started crying like there was no tomorrow... you would've thought something devastating had happened (though in her eyes, something probably did). I eventually got her to calm down, but was still shocked by her reaction. She didn't mind canceling the Disney trip (and for that, I am very thankful), but not being able to go to her favorite hair salon, she has a major breakdown. I don't get it.
I tried looking for other haircutting places in the area that cater to young kids, but had no luck. I also asked big sister K's teacher at daycare if she had any recommendations, and she referred me to Supercuts (not exactly what I had in mind). Big sister K refuses to let me cut her bangs anymore, so I'm hoping I can find a new place by Friday to bring her to. Anyone have any suggestions?
