The Evolution of Ryder’s Hair

In the beginning, it was dark & wavy

In just a few days, he had his very first Faux-Hawk

Then, it all began to be slicked over to the right

The sides started growing, so everything just went forward

All Forward

Pretty soon there was hair everywhere and we were able to spike it (this was definitely a fan favorite!)

That didn’t last long though, because he started balding

And getting a receding hairline

Then the cowlick’s started forming

The sides were bald and the top was long, so came the forward Mohawk

And the comb over, which we liked to call the Trump look

Soon after, it started looking like we just placed a toupee on his head

His hair got lighter and lighter in color and just had a mind of its own, some days it would get really fuzzy

Fuzzy

And other days, the best thing to do was just one big spike(another fan favorite!)

He even developed one little curl in the back

And each month, it just gets thicker,

Fuller,

Longer,

and crazier!

and even longer                      

 even Longer

and even crazier!!                 

 even Crazier

When you put a hat on it, he doesn’t even look like the same kid

The solution to the madness….leave in conditioner (yes, our 8 month old needs product in his hair!)

Did you think the solution was going to be a hair cut??!!  No way!  Not yet.  There’s a lot more evolving left to be done.
