Robert's First Haircut from Robert Kerner on Vimeo.
Robert had his first haircut back in September. We took him to Doodle Doo's, a children's hair salon in lower Manhattan that Bob found one day while on walk-about. There are plenty of places to buy a kid's haircut, but this one caught our attention because it is run by a former teacher and they have plenty of staff to distract nervous kids. They also have a section of the store set aside with books and games. It's not just a haircut, it's an experience!
It turns out Robert didn't care much for the experience. Not that the staff didn't go out of their way to make it nice; he was just intimidated by the scissors and new faces. They did a fine job cutting his hair. It turns out that Sammy had more fun running around the shop, playing with the toys. She'll have to wait for another day for her haircut.
After the experience, we walked around the west village and then over to one of the piers on the Hudson before storm clouds forced us back to the car.
It took so long to get around to editing the video that it's time for a haircut again!
