Just a Boy with a New Haircut

Gabe has great hair. He always has. From his earliest picture, to his referral photo, to today...his hair is beautiful. It's not quite black, it has lots of brown highlights that really come out in the summer. He has lots of hair, but it also has body, so it always falls just right. He knows it too, and loves to have people touch and fawn over it.
Recently, two of my friends had traumatizing haircuts for their sweet boys. I knew Gabe had a haircut coming up and I was a bit nervous. One of the friends had grown out her son's hair so that he could get a 'K-drama' cut, but sadly it did not end that way. See, most of my Seoul Sisters watch K-dramas, which are kind of like soap operas, but more like a 'light' 90210 as a mini-series. I watched one of them, but didn't get into it enough to really make it part of my life. However, I CAN appreciate the attractiveness of the male K-drama stars and their hair. So after some of my 'sisters' were commenting on much they liked Gabe's long hair, I thought...why not embrace it and try to give G a K-drama look?

We walked into the salon and Gabe gave his hairdresser this photo...


He walked out of the salon very much the toddler k-drama star he was meant to be...

Oh my goodness! I may have screamed like a tween when I saw Gabe's awesome cut. He does have fabulous hair (and an adorable face) but this is just too much. (In a very good way) I love the reference cut of course, and it's perfect for Gabe!

PS - Spencer is due for a cut, but after those other two cuts, I'm gun shy...

You could not have picked a better picture and Gabe looks AWESOME! What a cut, and if anyone can rock it, it's G!

He's so cute! This post made me laugh!

Now he has a hairstyle worthy of his rock star status. We can't get enough of Gabe's Yo Gabba Gabba performance in this house.

Krista said...

Ohh... a star in the making!

Michelle said...

Has he received a contract from a K*drama yet? Sign that boy up!

Christine said...

I LOVE IT! Seriously, Gabe looks adorable. It's the perfect cut for him! And, you couldn't have picked a better k-drama star to copy. :)

I love the Gong Yoo photo you chose! And Gabe DOES have awesome hair. What a great cut! We are off to get haircut #3 tomorrow. Always very dramatic ... wish us luck.

sue said...

oh gabe! you are definitely a kdrama star in the making! and of course i love the photo you chose. sigh.

Janet said...

Wow! Two really handsome Korean boys with great hair. I'm especially fond of the second boy. ;-) I cracked up at Elizabeth's "steamy expression" comment...kind of true. Hmmmm. D has good hair too (at least we think so)...and his last haircut was the best yet...but I'm thinking a little inspirational photo is a great idea too. Nice!

Annie B said...

Hmm, my computer isn't doing the 'do justice, but his lips look very dreamy :) (I'll have to check on my other screen...)

Grace said...

whoa, he *does* have great hair!! and that look! it's very "i know i'm cool" ;) what a handsome little dude you've got on your hands!
c has highlights, too! some are almost blonde and it makes me wonder if he's going to go prematurely grey!

Gabe is definitely rocking that haircut. What a cutie! Andy wants us to grow Daniel's hair longer again. We'll see how it goes. In the summer, he sweats so much that it's better to keep it very short!

Min said...

He is so cute! My husband and I have often remarked on his fabulous locks!

Robin said...

What a super cute haircut. I know that my little guy wishes he could say the same. Tyler's hair just stands straight up ;)

Birdie said...

I totally remember my reaction to Gabe's referral photo in the throne -it was, "That hair! It's awesome!" Was true then and is true now Little G!

Kara said...

Okay...I swooned when I saw my boyfriend's picture first, then screamed when I saw Gabe's. His hair looks amazing! I love it, and he is so adorable!
