Growing Out Bangs...Making it Match

This little one starts her second year of preschool in a couple of weeks and it's time to start training her hair.  She has started having a VERY big opinion about her hair.  I can't cut it, and she wants "no more bangs" and either VERY straight or "magic wand curlies".  I am a little back and forth on this one.  She has such a big forehead that I feel she just looks better with bangs.  Plus they are so little girly that it makes me feel a little sad.  

Sometimes it's as easy as tiny ponytails in colors that match her outfit.  

No bangs just makes me feel like it's official.  My last baby is growing up.
