well I can say that I trimmed just the front of Hot Rod's bangs last year and am so sorry that I did! 

  I know he does not like me fussing with his hair but at the same time he doesn't like his bangs in his eyes either.  I've been trying to grow them out and they seem to be taking foooorevvver! lol 
You can see in my avatar that they are finally long enough for me to put up in a little topknot.  I can't wait until he has his full topknot back as I think he looks so much better with his hair up.  But at the same time I also know that he would be so much happier if I gave him somewhat of a puppy cut so he didn't have to be combed out and fussed over every day.  Oh what to do?  I am still kinda undecided for the summer though.
