Totally Unrelated but Important

My 2009 Hair Donation to Pantene Beautiful Lengths

Okay sister-friends, who is with me on growing and donating their hair in 2014 and/or 2015? Instead of cutting mine right now, I’m continuing to let it grow—long story (no pun intended)—but in part so that there is more there to start me on round two! But every time I see long hair, I want to to ask, “Would you be willing to donate that even just one time for someone who doesn’t have the option of growing their hair due to chemo or disease?”

So, let me ask: “Would you be willing to ‘sacrifice’ at least one time to donate your hair for someone who doesn’t have the option of growing their hair due to chemo or disease?” For now, let’s not have a discussion on which company is better and what their supposed “rules” are—let’s just commit to give—and yes, there are some who accept gray hair! I’d like to get a “group” together to do this. In 2009, we had almost 75 in the group over the course of two years! I’d love to top that! Serious replies only. Anyone willing to do this in 2014 or 2015?

    I have a special place in my heart for cancer patients. I’ve never thought of donating my hair, although my niece did that one time. It’s certainly worth considering.

      You are a gem, Joan! I would LOVE for you to even consider it! I can’t give much in the way of ginormous contributions, so I figure it’s one little thing I can do for those without the option!

    I love that question, “Would you be willing to donate that even just one time for someone who doesn’t have the option of growing their hair due to chemo or disease?” I have donated my hair in the past, but never quite thought of it that way. So yes, I’ll gladly donate my hair this summer!
