And just like that… hair she goes! My firstborn is four!

Iya’s at the age now where her parties are no longer for the grownups! After literally growing from toddler to child and becoming a big sister all while locked up in the pandemic — I wanted her party to totally center on her & her buddies! We haven’t had many opportunities to socialize these past 18 months so the social anxiety we’re feeling as adults, I know is even harder on the kids. Iya’s been struggling hard these past several months so we kept it small as she’s easing back into the world. Her comfort and enjoyment were absolutely paramount.

Iya & her 6 besties (+ baby siblings all born during the pandemic!) enjoyed the day having their hair braided & painting their own masterpieces. Get ready for all the beautiful details below!
