~~LOCKS OF LOVE~~

Locks of Love is a public non-profit organization that provides hairpieces to financially disadvantaged children in the United States and Canada under age 18 suffering from long-term medical hair loss from any diagnosis.

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 they provide help to restore their self-esteem and their confidence, enabling them to face the world and their peers.

It's been on my mind and heart to donate my hair for a while now. So, on Tuesday I went for it! I don't have a "before" picture but here are the "after" pictures. I was able to donate 11 inches of my hair! It will grow back, right!? :)

Very cute style! My girls did this a year and a half ago and their hair has already grown back. So yes, it will. :)
