A Heavy and Hot, mop of hair.

That's what Levi calls it anyway. He is very precise in how he likes his hair, and it always depends on the seasons. In winter he likes it long (and so will start growing it out as soon as school is in session) and in summer he wants it short. He claims that it is just too hot to keep it in the summer (good thing he is not a girl), and he wants it cut as soon as school is out, but not a moment before.

Levi, with his luscious locks:

We only run into one issue. How much hair he has, and how fine it is. It gives our clippers a coronary. He is by far, the hardest of the boys, to cut hair for. It is so silky soft and so thick that is slips out of the blades, or jams them.

So, after a few attempts at the clippers, I decided that I needed to just chop most of it off with scissors, and then attempt to cut it with the clippers. UGH!! What a pain. He kept telling me that he wanted his "summer" hair to be like Micheal's (a close cousin/friend), a little daunting for me, since I hadn't cut it like that before. I started to try, but was feeling a little nervous about it. Fortunately, Micheal's dad was over, and since he knows how to do the "Micheal" do, I persuaded him to have at it.

Apparently Micheal and Levi have very different hair, so even the professional "micheal do" stylist had to modify the cut to fit Levi's difficult hair. He did a great job! Thanks, Allen!

Here is Levi's newly shorn look:
Okay, Summer can start now!
