LOL Oh and everybody's mom gave them the dorky bangs, too. My mom would start out okay, but they'd be a little crooked, so she'd go to correct them, but oops, now they're crooked the other way. We'll just take a little sliver off this side, and...oops, crooked again...and this would go on until my forehead was as big as the Berlin Wall!<BR/><BR/>As a hairdresser, I would like to try your mom's method to keep people still. Do you think my clients would mind a good swift smack with the hairbrush?

You two girls were adorable. I should post my school pics. My kids say, Oh mom, you were adorable but really mean, oh mom, you were such a nerd. OOps, not that you girls were nerds....Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01688789215548531800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18841079.post-62723853174122452382009-02-12T02:21:00.000-08:002009-02-12T02:21:00.000-08:00I think my guess was based on 'let's see who looks...I think my guess was based on 'let's see who looks like one your children' and in some ways there was the match.Dinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08915306323006971277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18841079.post-66331471609726436372009-02-12T02:20:00.000-08:002009-02-12T02:20:00.000-08:00Oh Wow before I read on your post I assumed you we...Oh Wow before I read on your post I assumed you were the one in the red check trousers!!! <BR/><BR/>I must admit your mum's post made me laugh !!Dinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08915306323006971277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18841079.post-15566656165341093862009-02-11T14:48:00.000-08:002009-02-11T14:48:00.000-08:00As one of the 'offending' moms, I really have to a...As one of the 'offending' moms, I really have to agree that there could have been a bit more finesse with the scissors, but that is what most of us did in those days. Who could afford to take their kids for a pro haircut? That style is refferred to as a 'pudding cut', which means that it looks as though a pudding bowl has been placed on the head and used as a guideline for the scissors.<BR/><BR/>Those same scissors were used for trimming chicken, carpets and wallpaper, so just be glad that it looks as good as it did.<BR/><BR/>The haircut was usually accompanied by a few smacks with the hairbrush, which was a quick cure for wriggling, whining and backtalk. Those methods would put parents in jail in this present time. I'm glad I was a mom when a quick smack ended arguments, maybe not too democratic, but usually ended up with a pretty good kid who knew how to toe the line.<BR/><BR/>love momAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18841079.post-87141247810662629662009-02-11T13:57:00.000-08:002009-02-11T13:57:00.000-08:00AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA...AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA<BR/><BR/>I couldn't agree with you more....!<BR/><BR/>I eally liked those shoes... now that I am older, wiser, and greyer...
