On the right side of the image, Allie sits on the floor of a cozy indoor room, kneeling and holding up a framed photograph with a delighted, open-mouthed smile. She has a round face, large black eyes, light/fair skin, and shoulder-length brown hair. She wears a light purple/lavender short-sleeved dress. Scattered around her on a striped rug are open picture books, alphabet blocks, a small teddy bear, and a yarn ball. A bookshelf stands to the left, and a wooden side table on the far right holds another framed photo and a small potted plant, with a window above letting in warm daylight through green curtains. The framed photo Allie is holding shows a woman with short hair and a big, pretty smile, and another framed photo of the same woman sits on the side table.

Ale encuentra una foto vieja entre un oso de peluche y una pila de libros. —¡Mamá! —grita—. ¡Mira tu pelo en esta foto! ¡Es tan corto y tan bonito! Ale pone la foto junto a su propia cara y compara. Los mismos ojos. La misma sonrisa. Pero el pelo de Ale es largo y despeinado, y el de mamá es corto y perfecto. —Quiero un pelo igualito —susurra Ale. Y ya tiene un plan.

On the left side of the image, Allie is kneeling on a striped mat on the floor. She has a round face, large black eyes, light/fair skin, and shoulder-length brown hair — now being snipped at with a small pair of red craft scissors she holds above her head with both hands. She has a cheerful, determined smile. She wears a light purple/lavender short-sleeved dress. Dark brown hair clippings float and scatter through the air around her. The right side of the image is plain, warm-toned background.

Ale busca sus tijeras de manualidades en la caja de arte. Las rojas, las de mangos ondulados. Ale nunca ha cortado pelo. Ha cortado papel. Ha cortado cuerda. Hasta ha cortado un gusano a la mitad sin querer (perdón, gusano). ¿Qué tan diferente puede ser el pelo? ¡Ris, ris, ris! Los mechones oscuros vuelan por el aire. Ale sonríe de oreja a oreja. Ya es toda una estilista.

On the right side of the image, Allie stands or sits holding up a small round light-blue hand mirror, gazing into it with a calm, anticipatory expression — the moment just before she sees herself. She has a round face, large black eyes, light/fair skin, and her brown hair is now badly cut — chopped into uneven clumps of different lengths with ragged edges. She wears a light purple/lavender short-sleeved dress. She is near a green polka-dotted stool. The scene is set indoors against a warm, soft beige background.

Ale toma su espejito azul y lo levanta bien alto. —Es hora de conocer a la nueva yo —dice, y sacude la cabeza como las señoras de la tele. Mira. Parpadea. Vuelve a mirar.

On the left side of the image, Allie is shown from the shoulders up with a dramatically upset expression — mouth wide open in a wail or cry, eyebrows furrowed in distress. One hand is raised near her chin in a gesture of shock or dismay. She has a round face, large black eyes, light/fair skin, and her brown hair is horridly cut — poking out in clumps of all different lengths with ragged, uneven edges. She wears a light purple/lavender short-sleeved dress. The background is a warm, plain beige/cream tone with the right side left open. The scene has soft, warm indoor lighting.

—¡Aaaaagh! Su pelo se levanta en mechones por todos lados. Mechones grandes. Mechones chiquitos. De un lado, cerca de la oreja, casi no queda pelo. El otro lado le cuelga como una hoja mojada. Ale quiere pegarlo de vuelta con pegamento. Quiere regresar el tiempo. ¡Qué vergüenza tan grande! —Está bien —dice con una voz muy chiquita—. Yo puedo arreglar esto.

On the right side of the image, Allie is kneeling on the floor with a red bowl of noodles upturned on her head, noodles draped over her badly-cut brown hair and scattered on the ground around her. She has a round face, large black eyes, light/fair skin, and wears a light purple/lavender short-sleeved dress. She holds her small round light-blue hand mirror in front of her face, peering into it with a surprised, wide-eyed expression. The scene is set indoors against a soft pink background with a pale floor.

En la cocina, Ale encuentra un tazón con fideos. Fideos largos, blanditos y hermosos. —Los fideos parecen pelo —dice—. Nadie se va a dar cuenta. Voltea el tazón boca abajo sobre la cabeza. Los fideos se le deslizan por las orejas y le escurren agüita por la nariz. Ale agarra el espejo y se asoma. Alguien se va a dar cuenta, segurísimo.

On the left side of the image, Allie stands in the foreground with a dismayed, open-mouthed expression, holding green bean pods on top of her head with both hands raised — the beans drape down like wild, tangled hair over her badly-cut brown hair. She has a round face, large black eyes, light/fair skin, and wears a light purple/lavender short-sleeved dress. In the upper-left corner, Mum, Dad, and Sister are grouped together, all laughing and amused at Allie's bean-hair attempt. Mum has chin-length wavy brown hair, large round black eyes, light/fair skin, and wears a coral-red short-sleeved V-neck top and blue jeans. Dad is stocky with warm medium-brown skin, large round white eyes with black pupils, a wide round nose, a full curly dark-brown beard and matching curly dark-brown hair, wearing a light blue short-sleeved button-up shirt with a front chest pocket and dark navy-blue pants — he holds a book. Sister has golden-blonde hair in two short pigtails with pink hair ties, large dark eyes, light/fair skin, and wears an orange short-sleeve dress over a pink t-shirt — she clutches a pillow, grinning with delight. The scene is set indoors against a plain, light background. The right ~40% of the image is empty white space.

—Los fideos son demasiado blandos —decide Ale—. Necesito algo más firme. Encuentra ejotes en la nevera y se los coloca sobre la cabeza, uno por uno, como largos cabellos salvajes. En eso entra su familia. Papá resopla. Su hermana señala. Mamá aprieta los labios con todas sus fuerzas, pero es inútil. Los tres estallan de risa. —¡No es gracioso! —grita Ale. Pero un ejote le resbala por la nariz y, la verdad… sí es un poquito gracioso.

On the right side of the image, Allie stands in the foreground holding her small round light-blue hand mirror up to her face, looking dismayed and uncomfortable. She has a round face, large black eyes, light/fair skin, and wears a light purple/lavender short-sleeved dress. Her badly-cut brown hair is covered in droopy spinach leaves arranged like a messy wig on top. In the upper-right corner, Mum and Dad stand together laughing heartily at Allie's spinach hairstyle. Mum has chin-length wavy brown hair, large round black eyes, light/fair skin, and wears a coral-red short-sleeved V-neck top and blue jeans. Dad is stocky with warm medium-brown skin, large round white eyes with black pupils, a wide round nose, a full curly dark-brown beard and matching curly dark-brown hair, wearing a light blue short-sleeved button-up shirt with a front chest pocket and dark navy-blue pants — he holds his belly laughing. Sister is just below them, also laughing with delight and holding a red ball. Sister has golden-blonde hair in two short pigtails with pink hair ties, large dark eyes, light/fair skin, and wears an orange short-sleeve dress over a pink t-shirt. The scene is set indoors against a plain, light background.

—La tercera es la vencida —dice Ale bajito. Agarra una bolsa de espinacas y se apila las hojas en la cabeza como un gran sombrero verde. Las aplana con las manos, se para bien derechita y levanta el espejo. Detrás de ella, papá se ríe tan fuerte que se agarra la panza. Su hermana esconde la risa detrás de una pelota roja. Hasta mamá tiene lágrimas en los ojos. —¡Dejen de reírse! —se queja Ale—. ¡Es moda! Pero las espinacas se marchitan y la cabeza le pica más y más.

On the left side of the image, Allie is crouched and hiding behind a large red couch on the floor of a living room, with only the top of her head and her large black eyes peeking out — her badly-cut brown hair visible above the couch. A pair of red craft scissors lies on the carpet nearby. The scene is set indoors in a cozy living room with a window, green floral curtains, and a small wooden table visible in the upper portion of the image. On the right side, Mum stands across the room calling out to Allie with a concerned expression. Mum has chin-length wavy brown hair, large round black eyes, light/fair skin, and wears a coral-red short-sleeved V-neck top and blue jeans.

Ya no más. No más fideos. No más ejotes. No más espinacas. No más nada. Ale se mete detrás del gran sofá rojo y se hace lo más chiquita posible. Si nadie puede ver su pelo, entonces su pelo no existe. Eso es pura ciencia. —¿Ale? —pregunta mamá con voz suave desde el otro lado de la sala—. Sal de ahí, cariño. —No —responde Ale—. Ahora vivo aquí.

On the right side of the image, the whole family is gathered on and around a red couch in a cozy living room. Mum sits on the couch smiling broadly, holding up a small round light-blue hand mirror toward Allie. Mum has shoulder-length dark brown hair, large round black eyes, light/fair skin, and wears a coral-red short-sleeved top, blue jeans, and dark blue flat shoes. Allie sits beside Mum on the couch, looking delighted with a big grin as she sees herself in the mirror, one hand resting on her cheek. Allie has a round face, large black eyes, light/fair skin, bare feet, and her short brown hair now has a red hairband on it. She wears a light purple/lavender short-sleeved dress with a small diamond pattern. Sister sits on the left end of the couch, turned toward the others and smiling happily. Sister has golden-blonde hair in two short pigtails with pink hair ties, large dark eyes, light/fair skin, and wears an orange short-sleeve top over a pink t-shirt with pink leggings and purple-and-white sneakers. Dad is perched on the arm of the couch behind them, laughing with his eyes closed. Dad is stocky with light/fair skin, large round white eyes with black pupils, a wide round nose, a full curly dark-brown beard and matching curly dark-brown hair, wearing a light blue short-sleeved button-up shirt with a front chest pocket and dark navy-blue pants, with bare feet. On the lower right, a small coffee table with a pink/lavender top holds a framed family photo and a second empty frame, and a round green polka-dot cushion sits on the floor nearby. The left portion of the image is plain light blue background. The hairband is red and has a little bow on it.

Mamá la levanta de todas formas y la lleva hasta el sofá. Papá se sienta en el brazo del sofá. Su hermana se acurruca cerquita. —Lo arruiné —dice Ale bajito—. No me parezco a ti para nada. Mamá saca algo de su bolsillo. Una diadema roja con un moñito. Se la coloca con cuidado en la cabeza a Ale y levanta el espejo. Ale mira. Parpadea. Vuelve a mirar. —Oh —susurra. Porque la niña del espejo se ve… maravillosa.

On the left side of the image, Allie stands facing forward with her eyes closed and a big, delighted smile, cupping both hands under her chin in a pleased, contented pose. She has a round face, large black eyes (closed), light/fair skin, and short badly-cut brown hair with a red headband with a red bow and gold flower accent. She wears a light purple/lavender short-sleeved dress. The background is plain white, leaving the right side completely open for text.

Ale cierra los ojos y sonríe tan fuerte que le duelen las mejillas. Pelo corto. Diadema roja. Moñito bonito. Ya no siente vergüenza. No se parece a la vieja foto de mamá. Se parece a Ale. Y Ale se ve increíble. Pero la próxima vez que quiera un corte de pelo, va a dejar que mamá se encargue de las tijeras. Y los fideos se van a quedar en el tazón, justo donde deben estar.
