I would delay cutting his hair until you're ready. Dh got quite antsy about our boys having "longer' hair, so we cut it before I was ready and it was so sad watching the little curls drop to the floor!

I have heard that cutting thickens it too (apparently with adults too). I'm not sure how that works, but to me that was even more reason not to cut it. To keep that beautiful soft hair for as long as possible!
