To go, he had to wear a mask. He's only three, so this was a big uncertainty. But, he did great! He loves haircuts, so was very much willing to wear a mask. Also, I sewed him a super cute Star Wars mask and we gushed about how handsome he was in it, which he loved.
In fact, he wore his mask all the way to the hair cut place (which is only 5 min away).
Little L just loves haircuts (unlike his sister, who was a terror to get haircuts). He happily climbed up on the booster seat and sat like a perfect prince the whole time, no cringing or anything. He didn't even touch his face mask! When he was finished, he high fived the lady and nodded knowingly when she said they didn't have suckers because of the pandemic. He was extremely happy to get a temporary tattoo instead, which he put on immediately when we got home (it was a sudsy shampoo bottle).
His new haircut looks great!
While Little L got his haircut, I talked to the lady cutting his hair. They have had little business since re-opening. Tips are unpredictable because lots of customers are broke. She has no childcare and has had to ask her parents to help out in order to work, which is a big risk to her parents. We commiserated over our hard realities (hers are definitely worse than mine). We commiserated over the uncertain future. I would have hugged her if I could have - but instead, we stayed 6 ft from each other and had to talk through our face masks. It is such a crazy world right now.
But, at least we could get Little L a much needed haircut!

I'm glad he likes his haircut! He looks as bright as a button with his summer haircut! You weren't tempted to have a go yourself?
I am trying! I have a preferred place I go as my hair is really thick and difficult - but this place is booked through July!!
