How annoying!
Jan. 27th, 2007 11:07 pmLast time I got my hair drastically chopped off (from mid back to ear length, about a foot’s worth of hair,) I donated the cut off ends to Locks of Love. I figured they’d make a really good wig for somebody in need, given that I’ve never dyed, permed, or even hairsprayed my hair.
Apparently the odds are very good that my hair was not, in fact, made into a wig by Locks of Love.
In fact it seems it’s more likely that the hair was sold to raise money for the “charity.” What exactly they do with this money, given that it seems they aren’t much into giving out free wigs, I have no idea.
I was going to donate again in about two years, when I plan on having another severe haircut. (This one should be from mid-thigh to the ears, thus generating something close to a full yard of hair!) But now I think I’m going to find something else to do with my hair. I wonder how much a yard’s worth of really full, never been treated hair would go for on ebay? *grin*
