...This was my hair Thursday morning...it's not really curly...I just decided to curl it one last time before I cut it all off...
...and this is my hair now...
This is the eleventh time that I've donated over 10 inches of hair...(my hair grows really fast - it takes about 2 years for me to grow 12 inches of hair)...but all the previous times I've donated to Locks of Love...
...here's my chopped off ponytail...
...and here it is braided and ready to go...
This time at the recommendation of Amanda at Newman Improved I'm donating to Children with Hairloss...Thanks Amanda!
i didn't know it was that long!! i guess you had it up in a ponytail the whole time i was there. looks lovely and cool!
ReplyDeletelove, k
I have been thinking of cutting my hair[now almost to my waist again] and I love the idea of donating for children. I love your cut, so very classic! Have a beautiful weekend.xx
ReplyDeleteLocks of Love has received so much criticism for selling the donated hair instead of giving it. Kind of broke my heart to read that they rarely donate wigs to the children I always assumed were getting them and that LoL is not the generous company I'd always thought. On a more positive note, good for you! Your hair is lovely and regardless who buys that wig, it will be stunning, {While it is true that only 3% of children who have LoL wigs have cancer, a stunning 90% of the children who have LoL wigs have alopecia. Your hair will be beloved for a very long time.} What a big heart you have. Beautiful post!
ReplyDeleteP.S. Forgot to say I like the new charity, too! I'm such an impatient typist, lol! Again, beautiful cut, beautiful reason.
ReplyDeleteAwesome, good for you!
ReplyDeleteWow, your hair does grow fast! It's a great cause you're donating to@
ReplyDeleteAwesome job! I've donated mine three times and I made a goal to donate again at least 3 times because I heard it usually takes 6 ponytails to craft one wig. It's so inspiring to see that you've donated 11 times.
ReplyDeleteWOW. Wow. Why have I never considered this with my super dark, fast-growing hair? I can't even begin to imagine how heavy my hair would be if I let it get that long, but hmm...you have inspired me...
ReplyDeleteWOW! You have beautiful hair! :-) I like your new doo! Thanks for the shout out to my blog! I'm growing my hair out again as well.
ReplyDeleteI'm impressed - that your hair grows so fast, that you've donated it 11 times! and that it looks great both short and long.
ReplyDeleteGold star to you:)
ReplyDeleteCool! :)
ReplyDeletewow - awesome! Your hair looks beautiful and healthy, either way!
ReplyDeleteWow, you have beautiful hair! It will make someone very happy. I love your new hairdo too.
ReplyDeleteYour hair is gorgeous long or short and i think it is wonderful that you donated it!
