Locks of Love!




On Thursday I made the decision to cut my hair, and donate it to locks of love. :) So on Saturday 11/10, Joseph, my bestfriend Tara, and I went to Fantastic Sams and got it done, its a good feeling, although its the shortest my hair has ever been. I'm happy that I decided to do it.

Locks of Love is a public non-profit organization that provides hairpieces to financially disadvantaged children under age 18 suffering from long-term medical hair loss from any diagnosis. We meet a unique need for children by using donated hair to create the highest quality hair prosthetics. Most of the children helped by Locks of Love have lost their hair due to a medical condition called alopecia areata, which has no known cause or cure. The prostheses we provide help to restore their self-esteem and their confidence, enabling them to face the world and their peers.
