Recently my daughter, sister, and I had a girls day out. We had decided that since we all had rather long hair, and wanted a change, we would wait til it grew long enough to donate. There is a company called Locks of Love. What they do is take your hair donation ( of at least 10 inches) and make it into wigs for children. I beleive they then donate these wigs to under prividged children who have lost thier hair due to sickness. I made sure to take pics so we could share with all of you. Enjoy and think of locks of love next time!
