Locks of Love

Tea has a tender head.

Tea does not like getting her hair combed.

Tea's parents had enough last night.

Tea got a haircut.

She has seen a blurb on PBS Kids Go about a young lady that donated her hair to Locks of Love. She has mentioned in the past that she wanted to do this.

We reminded her about Locks of Love this morning and she agreed to donate her hair.

So, off to Snip Its we went. They do a great job there and they cater to kids. Plus, if you are donating your hair, they do the cut for free - which we totally did not expect.

The hair has to be bundled (in a ponytail or braid) and has to be 10" long from tip to tip. Tea's hair just qualified. If there are pieces that are shorter, Locks of Love sells the short pieces to offset the cost of making wigs.

Her new hairdo is so darn cute and we are proud of her for thinking of others.

We hope you enjoy these pictures as much as we do!

I am glad your child did this. I done it a time or two, and when my younger is ready to doff his corkscrew curls, he will donate his hair as well. Such a good cause!
