Story

My hair grows easily, and I don't think I appreciate it as much as I should, always scraped back in a ponytail.  It's time again to give it to someone who needs it.  Little Princess Trust gives real-hair wigs to children suffering from cancer or alopecia. Help me to also defray the cost to the charity for one of the wigs, 350.00.  Bought privately, it could cost a family 2000.00 to get one for their child.

I get my hair trimmed once a year, whether it needs it or not.  Hair grows about 6 inches a year and currently mine is 22 inches long.  I'm trying to be really brave and cut it rather short.  The more you donate, the shorter I'll go (not shaved - I've got a scalp to confuse a phrenolgist).  I've got some style ideas up on Pinterest. To me, it's only hair.  It grows back.  For a number of children, it doesn't.  Help them to fit in at school, and to forget the pain of their disease for a while.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
