Since we have moved to Shanghai nearly 2.5 years ago, the cost of living here has risen quite dramatically. But some things remain cheap such as the cost of a hairwash. Since some locals do not have access to a private bathroom, it is quite popular to go to the salon to have your hair washed, scalp and shoulder massage, and a blow dry. Usually runs around $5. We decided to take the girls for a haircut today and I was sure they wouldn't go for the full hairwash but to my surprise, they were totally down with it! And afterwards, a little trim and viola! All for $7/kid which is pretty cheap compared to what we used to pay in the US for a kids haircut where the stylist only used a water bottle and no blowdry!

Ahh, this is the life...
The chinese style towel wrap
The girls enjoy all the attention (clearly, they were a little slow that day)
A with bangs! We think she looks so grown up now- even with the silly face she's making in this picture.
