11 Photos of Kids' Self-Isolation Haircuts That Went About as Well as You'd Expect Them To
We get it: the urge to cut your child's overgrown hair during this time of self-isolation is tempting. Even though barbers and hair salons are closed, our kids' hair just keeps on growing (does it feel like it's growing faster somehow?!). However, no matter how badly you want to take a pair of clippers to your child's head, you may want to reconsider. Cutting hair is hard enough as it is — add a wiggly kid into the mix, and, well, you're in for a wild ride.
Keep scrolling for a few photos of kids who got DIY haircuts from their parents that all prove we should maybe take a slow step back from the scissors. And if it's too late for your kids, hey, it'll grow back!
