Cutting Your Long Hair For A New Look?
Why Not Donate It To Locks Of Love?
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.
Mission Statement
Our mission is to return a sense of self, confidence and normalcy to children suffering from hair loss by utilizing donated ponytails to provide the highest quality hair prosthetics to financially disadvantaged children. The children receive hair prostheses free of charge or on a sliding scale, based on financial need.

Now that's a GREAT DEAL! Ps. They have the Jessica Simpson Hair Do! =) READ!!!! I talk mostly baout wigs but the same goes for extentions. READ!!!! (YOU CAN STILL FIND HUMAN HAIR THAT ISN'T TREATED/MADE IN THIS MANNER) Shaving the head is an age-old Hindu ritual. Babies are shaved for good luck. Adults allow themselves to be shaved to thank the gods. It is a ritual about vanity, but about abandoning it, not encouraging it. Hair represents the difference between male and female, between beautiful and ugly, and hair protects and conceals. Those who sacrifice their hair are giving the gods a piece of themselves. They receive no compensation for their offering. "This is a tradition, not a business," says the temple manager. She doesn't know what will happen to her hair, or that, after 29 days, a depigmentation process and a color bath, it will arrive in a salon somewhere in the world. After the ritual, she will wash herself, put on her fresh, orange sari and pray that her children will receive a good education. The hair is then collected and kept aside for auction. Only affluent people take part in the auction of the hair from the temples as the hair has to be bought in bulk and can literally cost millions of dollars. The hair in these auctions is usually sold by multiple tons. A chain of buying continues from the main buyer to various middle men and wholesaler Distributors. The large quantities of hair to the factories of the suppliers and then sorted, hackled and sorted by length. It is then washed using industrial shampoo and dried under the sun outdoors. After drying, it is drawn and tied into bundles. The hair is now ready for export. it is exported by distributors to salons, beauty stores and individuals all over the world.

Locks of Love
Today I went to get my first haircut in over a year... It was getting very long so I decided that with all that hair I better do something good rather than letting it go in the trash. There are very few places around here that donate to Locks of Love or Wigs for Kids but I found the cutest little place in North Ogden that does. So if you live in Northern Utah and you want to donate the place I went to is in North Ogden and it's a really cute little place called, "Don Moore's Hairstyling" @ 1375 5th Street. It's a little barber shop run out of Don's house and he is super sweet. It's in a residential area so it's kind of hard to find if you don't know the area but it's worth it because he gave me a GREAT haircut. I LOVE IT! I'm not going any where else from now on :) And if there is no place in your area that donates you can request that they put your ponytail in a bag and fill out the donation form yourself to send it in. Here are the donation forms: Locks of Love http://www.locksoflove.org/donate_hair.php#item1 Wigs for Kids http://www.wigsforkids.org/Hair-Donations/Donate-your-Hair-to-Wigs-for-Kids/Hair-Donation-Information/ By The Way, my donation was used by Pantene for an Adult Cancer Patient. I got a letter from them thanking me. I don't buy into this whole thing where it's good to put down charitable organizations or beleive that it's okay to insult someone by letting them know that something they did that was supposed to be kind and good was somehow crap or could have been done better. So far that I know I haven't had any cancer patients come on here to tell me their personal horror stories with Locks of Love and until I know that there is a valid reason why people put them down I won't remove the link. See, I donated my hair to them not money. If they needed the $1,000+ to make a wig for some kid by selling my hair to Pantene then who the hell cares? I don't see to many stores about people donating money to that organization but hair so really people please take your insults elsewhere and don't point out that other organizations do just fine without selling their hair because personally until I know the background for other organizations I am not going to insult them or any other non-profit organization unless it opposses my moral beleifs. Period. I don't care.
