Tonight Alyssa's hair was reduced to shoulder length. She originally was going to donate her hair but it would have needed to be a few more inches longer than it was. It was becoming unbearable and she wanted it shortened. Cynthia took Alyssa to the hairdresser with Bradley, Isabella and their cousin McKenna in tow. I happened to leave work and get to the hair salon the same time they did. It was quite an ordeal for one person. It is the first time any significant length had been removed from her hair. First she was placed in a chair for the initial trim. Even from that trim there was a good 4 inches of hair on the floor. I was shocked. She then had it washed and went back to the original chair for further work. The lady that was cutting her hair, Brooke, is in our Ward. Brooke then continued to trim and style until Alyssa was beaming with glee at the sight of her shorter hair. When it was all said and done she left there as one happy, a little older looking, beautiful young lady.
It was funny to see her grab the back of her hair and run her fingers through the end...only to have no hair in her hand after just a short stroke. She had to run over to McKenzie's house, her friend, and then show granny and grandpa Hatch.
Now she wants Cynthia to use the straightener on her hair. The fun begins.
Bring on the teenage years.

She looks great! Very mature. I saw the new haircut in person today.
She does look older, very pretty young lady!
She looks great with short or long hair, but she does look more mature with short hair!
