1st Haircut

I have been holding off on getting Nataga's hair cut... mstly becuase I've wanted to twist it a way I had seen in a magazine and because Nataga has the "traditional Ethiopian bald spot". If his hair isn't long enough in that particular spot, there is a very distinct patch where hair does not grow! After tons of searching I realized that we would have to put the twists on hold. A lady from chruch demonstrated how to cut Nati's hair. She has raised several foster children and has haircutting down to an art! She was certain I could handle the job. I however, was not so sure! So today I gave it a go and found myself wishing I had cut his hair a long time ago. He looks SO much better. I'll have to post a better "after" photo later, someone was tired of pictures and was ready for a nap!
