First Haircut in Shanghai
» No Tags
Its about time, I am tired of hearing people refering my son as 小姐姐 or 小妹妹. Does he really has such girlish features? I am guessing it was because of his hair, they were getting quite long by Chinese standard here. Seems that boys here all spot very short haircut, those durian head that we are familiar with. Whenever I see Asian looking boys with longer hair, they usually turn out to be Japanese, Koreans or oversea Chinese.
Anyway, there is a hair saloon in my estate, and there is this little elevated car to sit children in while they have their haircut. So much fun and interesting then the cold looking chair. 弟弟 probably didn’t want people to mix up his gender anymore too and sat through the 10 minute or so haircut without any fuss.
And oh, by the way, nobody call him 小姐姐 or 小妹妹 anymore after getting the haircut when we hung out at the playground.

That’s such a great idea having the kids sitting in little cars instead of seats.

Kids here are like treasures, they are very very very very well taken of!

I guess I’ll be glad to live there if I was a kid, but as a parent, maybe not. I’ll be too paranoid about spoiling them.

Wow… I’m impressed with didi being able to sit for the haircut. Wei Shyan was screaming her head off just getting her fringe cut.
