Chu Chu had got a new hair cut!!! Phew... It's a REAL challenging task to bring Chu Chu for hair cut. This time, the credit goes to my papa and the barber.
Firstly, my papa brought Chu Chu to sit outside the barber shop for awhile, allowing him to get use to the environment. At least, this time he did not cry before he entered the barber shop. Great! The first challenge is overcome.
Next, the barber was informed that Chu Chu is fearful of hair cut, hence, he carefully put the cape for him, in order not to scare him with the big piece of cloth. However, Chu Chu refused to put the cape on. The understanding barber then tried to put the towel instead. But still, Chu Chu refused to put the towel on. The barber knew that the priority was to get Chu Chu hair cut, he then suggested not to put anything on.
Upon an agreement with my papa over the cape and towel, the patience barber, who claimed that he has 8 grand-children and hence knows very well how to handle hair cutting for toddlers, started to dance and cut Chu Chu's hair at the same time!!! Yes, he danced. Not only did he danced, he also danced childishly with funny hand gesture. By doing so, he managed to bring laughter to Chu Chu. Brilliant!!! Chu Chu was not crying, but, laugh when he got his hair cut!!! Isn't it wonderful?! Salute to the barber!!! For $5, the barber got to dance and cut the hair from this challenging head of Chu Chu. Fantastic service!!! And the hairstyle is pretty 'IN', not 'GONG' on Chu Chu's head, and it makes Chu Chu look more like a boy. See for yourself:

I told myself, Chu Chu will not go anywhere else for haircut, except to this barber shop. :-)
"Hair is vitally personal to children. They weep vigorously when it is cut for the first time; no matter how it grows, bushy, straight or curly, they feel they are being shorn of a part of their personality." -- Charles Chaplin
