According to my wonderful stylist, I need at least fourteen inches of flowing tresses for a donation to Locks of Love. That means hair past my elbows. As you can see from today's appointment, I've a long way to grow yet. I'm not sure I'll have the patience, but I'm giving it my best. The current length is the longest my hair has been since my undergraduate days. Locks of Love takes clean hair donations of ten inches or more and fabricates hair pieces for children and adults who've lost hair due to a variety of medical conditions. These do not fall off during sports or swimming and can be worn all the time. My
mother lost her hair during chemotherapy, a traumatic experience. Though it was growing in again when she passed away, she shared her disdain for losing it and the fact that it did not feel or look the same when it grew back. I hope this donation will eliminate the trauma of hair loss for someone...
Until Next Time...
