I have been growing out our hair now for a long time and about six months ago I asked my neice if she would like to donate hair with me. She took advantage of the Beatiful Lengths program sponsored by Pantene because they only require 8" of hair. Beatiful Lengths makes wigs for women battling breast cancer. I am sending mine to Locks of Love who makes wigs for children who lose hair for various reasons, my pony tails were 10" long. She was nervous about how short her hair would be when we were done...but she stuck by her promise and I know someone will be blessed to have her hair. Miss Teen assured her that every time she did something nice for someone else....her heart would grow, making room for more love. Her Mom (my sis) did the honor of cutting our hair. I know this is something we will remember doing for a very long time and I am proud of her.

You both look fabulous! Good for her...and you too.
Way to go. Someone is going to look beautiful with your donation.
This is a fabulous, generous, loving gift; and the fact that you two did it together is doubly wonderful!! You both look great, too!
So generous of you two!! 2 of my daughters have donated also.. I am sure the hair will be beautiful wigs for someone who needs them. I know a lady who wears wigs and she buys 100% human.
Good Job you too! If only my hair would grow that long to begin with! What a great memory you two have made and will always remember.
