Donating Hair

We have a tradition in our house of donating hair.  I know that donating hair doesn't save lives like donating blood does, but it is one way that we are able to give to those that are going through some major hardships in their lives.  Hair is just one of those things that makes a person feel better about themselves and a wig made out of real human hair is so much more natural looking than the synthetic hair.  It takes multiple donations (something like 10?) to make one wig for a person.  I have donated several times and plan on doing so again at my next haircut.  The girls recently donated 8 inches each.  So, if you are thinking about getting a big change in your hairstyle, please consider saving it for someone else to use!  There are many websites dedicated to hair donation, especially those undergoing cancer treatments.  Please look them up!
