Now we go to another salon that has a male there and he is chatty with Nick and always asks about Matt since sometimes he comes too, but we only tried once and it did not take place. I have wanted to start a company like the animal dog care vans I see where they do it inside the vehicle and have this the autism hair cut van. Maybe someday I can make this happen.

My husband worked on it with him --- we used to take Charlie to a kids' haircutting place but a barber (rather gruff and no nonsense) has worked out well. Personally, I dislike getting my own hair cut! Charlie initially did not like getting his hair cut, at all.

Everyone else who happened to be there did to, because I cried inconsolably the entire time. Even now, a substantial haircut is such a painful sensory experience that I'd rather have a whole host of nasty things happen before that, and in one of the few substantial haircuts since (we did trim it, of course), I had to wear a hat everywhere for over half a month. So it's good to hear of an experience so... foreign to that. Cliff I remember the first time I had my haircut.
