My hair is longer now than it has been since I was 13 or so. I’m happy with the length for now, but I’ve said I will donate it once I decide to go for a big chop.
I was thinking about Locks of Love, mainly because that’s the charity I hear most about but also because I was told they donate to children battling cancer.
“The New York Times” says that’s wrong. This article certainly explains more than I’ve ever been told. And because I have no intention of making a hair donation soon (nor have I ever had enough hair to donate), I’ve never felt the need to investigate the matter further on my own.
I will be looking more into it, though, before the time to chop arrives. I encourage anyone else who has considered donating their hair to, at the very least, read the article.
So if the big chop isn’t soon …. when?
Someday, Mere. Someday.
