My hair was finally long enough for the big cut! I washed it and separated it into 6 ponytails. (This head holds a lot of hair.) I grabbed the scissors & cut it off! That's right folks. I cut my own hair. I ain't scared! :0) Seriously though, I didn't want the hairstylist to talk me out of it. So, a few hours after I cut my own hair for donation, I went into the
salon for a 'clean up'. I really like my new do. Its short, sassy
& easy. Locks of Love needs at least 10 inches & a few of my ponytails were 12. It felt so good to do something physical for someone else at a time when I feel so helpless.
I have no plans to grow my hair out again. I've always wanted to donate hair & now I've done it. It was a small thing to do for those kiddos who struggle to live. I only hope someone somewhere wears it & loves it. People have been very sweet & given me lots of praise & compliments but really, I only cut my hair. When you visit a cancer treatment center you will understand, it was nothing, it even made my life easier. I only wish I could give more to those who are the real true heroes!
