Haircut Mamak Style






Anyone with boys? Do you think that it is one of your most challenging moments to bring your kid to the "Mamak the Barber"...or some fancy hairstylist for some stylo-mom? Or is it just because it is "Mamak the Barber" that causes all the fear and anxiety in your kid? And those stylo-moms do not have that problem at all because the smooth, relaxing, spa-like ambience actually distracts the kid from throwing the haircut-tantrum?

I had experienced it already with Adam, which I must attest, was even more terrible than Amir. Adam would scream his heart out until the haircut is over. While for Amir, it is the actual pre-haircut events that actually terrified him. He actually recognize the road and buildings around the barber shop and will quickly claw my cheek, or his aunt's cheek if ever we passed that road, and his baby dialect he would say "nanak potong ambut...", and also screamed his heart out.

When it comes to the actual moment, Amir would just sit still, but with very sad, guppyfish look, waited until the haircut is over. Not much a challenge afterall!
