Cut my hair
Posted: Sat Dec 01, 2012 4:08 pm
A little over three years ago I decided to grow my hair out and donate it to a worthy cause. The charity I chose was Wigs 4 Kids. This is fairly close to me in Saint Clair Shores Michigan. I liked the idea of doing something for a local charity. So over the last three years I was able to grow my hair to a 12" length. They required a minimum of 10" so a couple of months ago I had the person who normally cut my hair (for the last 30 years) cut it. She made numerous small pony tails all over my head so I had enough to donate and enough not to be bald myself. She had cut hair for donations before and knew just what to do.
I had no idea what I was getting into when I started this. I have had long hair before but not like this. It was a real chore to take care of especially when it wasn't long enough to keep in a pony tail. I somehow managed and learned some techniques.
Maggie Varney, Founder & CEO of Wigs 4 Kids sent me a nice thank you via email and US mail. I had sent in a CD of before, during, and after pictures along with my hair and a note. Maggie told me that she would use the pics to encourage other men to grow their hair for this good cause. You can find my pics a short way down the page of their blog.
