Ella Bella Salon

Ella and her BFF girl friend, Bella, are always together. Mainly because we live 10 feet away from each other. Bella and Ella are three months apart, and Joe and Jake are three months apart. Since Ella and Bella are such good friends, ( and I am sure Joe and Jake will be too)that in turns, leaves the parents to be as well. Melissa and I have either 2 three year olds or none. Depends on which house they are hoping from and to. Every night they ask for a sleep over. Three times we have tried and three times a mom gets a phone call around midnight.

Last night we were over at Bella's house hanging out and celebrating her Aunt Ju-Ju's birthday. Mel and I are rockin on the Guitar Hero and the boys, I actually do not remember what they were doing at this point. Probably dealing with our infant boys.

Ella comes down stairs and Mel asked me "Did Ella cut her hair?"

"No, they just did a really bad job last time we went."

"Heather, I think she cut her hair."

Guitar Hero immediately stops. I see what Melissa is talking about and ask Ella what happened. To which she replied "Bella cut my hair."

About that time, all parental units realize Bella is still upstairs and the last thing she said before she headed up stairs was "I want my hair like Ella's". Which she has apparently been saying for weeks. Bella has gorgeous long blond hair. Parents start running up the stairs and as I was following Melissa and Brian, I see Bella stick her head around the corner and all I can see is scraggly pieces everywhere.

I immediately turn around to talk to Ella, Brian has smoke coming out of his ears and Mel, I am sure is in shock. We have a talking with the girls and we leave. The next thing I know Melissa is texting me to meet me in the front yard. It is about 10pm by now. I am thinking "great, they are breaking up with us and our friendship is over." Melissa comes out the front door laughing. Geoff is rolling, went to bed laughing hysterically. Everything was fine but the girls were scared out of their minds. As well they should be!

So today, Mel and I took the girls to get their hair cuts. Bella lost about 6 inches and Ella's was already short. Now it is like pixie short. Here are the pics:
