a little bit rock chick?
I came down the stairs, and peered over to see what Clare and Stella were up to at the computer. Then I noticed the hair.
The hair on the floor. The scissors on the desk. And the chin length chunks cut from around her face and through all the side pieces.
Stella’s hair had just reached a beautiful length, long, thick, strawberry blonde. Easy to plait or put into pigtails to keep it off her face for childcare. She said that she still wanted it to be long, so rather than cut it all off to the shortest lengths – which would have been about ear length – in consultation with the hairdresser we tried for long layers.
Now we’re trying to decide if it is a little bit rock chick or a little bit bogan.
Either way, she’s happy, and seems to have absorbed the lesson that “next time you want your hair cut, tell Mummy and she will take you to the hairdresser. Do NOT cut it yourself”.
Oh noooooo! Definitely go with the rock chick theme 🙂
Oh dear … my niece did something similar at the same age but slightly more dramatic on just one side. At least it will grow out, in the meantime definitely go with the rock chick vibe!!
Def rock chick. Every kid has done it right?
I think Miss Stella is very Rock ‘n Roll and definitely not bogan. I also think she’s the most adorable little bundle of mischief. She’ll be super-cute, whatever her hair is doing.
ooops!! definitely rock chick though! ♥
At least it wasn’t close to the scalp. I do think the final result is kind of cute, and the layers should be easy enough to grow out.
This will be one that will be remembered for her 21st I think. The new look is still cute, and I hope with you that she learned her lesson
Opps. Surprisingly enough my girls didn’t go for cutting their own hair – but my boy does!!! Luckily clippers work wonderfully on hiding his handiwork…vbg. Love the new look. Very elfish if you know what I mean.
oops! Well done to you to take the time to get a photo of the hair on the floor! Some of us might have been in a little too much of a flap to manage that 🙂 …..but what can you do huh?! She is definitely feeling the rock chick look 🙂
Elfin is what springs to mind for me too – a look that quite suits Miss Stella’s style and personality! She does make me laugh Lara – though I can’t imagine that was your immediate reaction.
What do they all try this? Genetically imprinted to cut their own hair at least once? heehee. where was Claire in all this? Yep, agree, she still looks cute!
You know what, Clare NEVER did this! Stella loves giving me new challenges.

Ooh, rock chick for sure 🙂
Eat your heart out rock chic. what a stunner. Luv her knew stylin’ even if it begun as a homemade cut ( :
I’m going for “Rock Chick!”
I {heart} Stella!!!
My daughter did this at about the same age as well. Wait till she does it to a friend during a sleepover! My daughter has grown up to be a law abiding productive member of society. I am sure Stella will too. Elfin, very definitely.
LOL, I remember the first time my daughter did that. She took the scissors and cut up the front through the bands, no disguising that.
OOPS! Rock chick for sure. I actually think it suits her nicely. 🙂
Hee hee! My 7 year old son has done this twice! Once AFTER he went to the barber and when I asked him why he said he didn’t like the way the barber had cut a fringe in a straight line so he made it “random” – his word! Go the Rock Kids!
Rock Chicks Rule! Miss 5 was caught in the act doing this to a classmate last week! Got a lovely note from the teacher explaining how they had a chat about the inappropriateness of cutting hair! Not happy when I had to speak to the other parent about it to apologise and offer a fix-up haircut!!!!!
