locks of love. we did it.

Here she is… hair washed and brushed, ready to be measured and cut.



Sectioned and waiting for scissors… It has to be at least 10″ tip to tip. No colored hair or layered hair.

One down…

Pause for tears.
Done.

Swallow hard. another tear.
The new style, she seems pretty pleased with her hair!

Whew… that was harder than I imagined. I just hope it helps someone, somewhere.

wow! You are so brave doing that;)
she still looks like she has lots of hair!
So cute! Great job!
Oh boy, that must have been hard. For both of you. She has GORGEOUS hair, but then again she’s a gorgeous girl. I’m sure someone will really appreciate what she did. Give her a hug from me.

Annie—I am so SORRY it has taken me SO LONG to get here! Wow! I have read all the way down the page!!! I love the fact that she willingly gave her lovely locks for the benefit of others! My cousin had a double mastectomy and before she started her treatment, she had all of her hair cut off (she had long hair) and donated it to locks of love.
I am so glad you had a great birthday! (LOVE the toenails!)
I will be back–your blog is soooo neat! I have been BOGGED down at work and then at home…very little time to wander from bloggy house to bloggy house! But I have got to come back here—there is more I want to READ!!!

She has such a lot of hair for a little girl her age. I bet it won’t be long before it is that long again!

WOW! I didn’t know her hair was THAT long. It is very commendable for you to be able to do this so that others might benefit from that beautiful hair, which looks to be natural curly. So pretty! I understand the tears you shed. Her hair will grow back, Mom.
