My son's hair is getting long again. We had it cut for the first time on Dec.30th...3 weeks before his first birthday. I like how it looked when we first got it cut, but I also like it long. I really want to let it grow out at least until summer hits, but my husband wants to cut it now. What do you think? How long do you let your child's hair get before cutting it?

I dont have a son but I think boys look so cute with longer hair! Not like down their backs or anything and I wouldnt want people to think he was a girl but I would love to have a boy with a "shaggy" hair do. Its really up to you, he is too young to be teased for it. I think you have the ultimate say in it lol

If you like the long look, just get it trimmed, so its neat and tidy and out of his eyes.

well the length does not matter but i would let it grow until he starts primary school which is at age 5. Its up to u to let them grow if he is still young.

My son had long blonde curly hair when he was a toddler it got quite long way below his shoulders before I could bring myself to cut off those gorgous curls but people started thinking he was a girl so I had to cut it.

When my son was about 1, I thought he looked cute. His hair was growing long, but I didn't notice how long it really was until somebody said what a cute girl I had. I then got his hair cut. Now I look back at his pictures, his hair was alot longer than I remember.
But I still say he was a very cute baby boy. Your son looks adorable.

I wish my daughter had hair to cut - she doesn't have a lot of hair - it's longer on the sides but on top it's still pretty thin.
I guess you should just have it cut when you think it's necessary.
If i thought it was getting too long or starting to look scraggly then i'd cut it.
