This is the Way We Wash Our Hair
This is the way we wash our hair,
wash our hair, wash our hair.
This is the way we wash our hair,
so early in the morning!
...Dry our hair
...Brush our hair
...Braid our hair
(We don't like braids! Let's shake them out!)
...Shake our hair
Gregory Griggs
(Shake head up and down and to the sides as you say the rhyme. Do it a couple times faster and faster until everyone is dizzy and laughing)
Gregory Griggs, Gregory Griggs
Had twenty-seven different wigs
He wore them up, he wore them down
To please the people of the town
He wore them east, he wore them west
But he never could tell which one he loved best!
The Barber's Scissors
Here are the Barber's scissors,
(make cutting motion)
With which he cuts my hair,
I hope he cuts my bangs,
(snip fingers around hair and bangs)
Very nice and square,
A comb, a brush,
(pretend to comb)
Hairspray too,
(spray hair)
The barber has a lot to do!
