Many of you may recall Stratosdadri's daughter Delainey who raised the 1k for this yrs CAST event with a fund raiser ice out tournament/high school project and then got all the kids PFD's from Stearns when she made the Jr. World Championships this year and spoke to the right person down in Arkansas.

well this is something that I think she has done before, not sure, but just did it again recently.  It was the first I had heard of this org and thought I would post about them to try and create a bit of awareness.  If anyone has a wife, daughter, hippie son, who is getting ready to "go short", please show them the link below.

They take the cuttings (10" minmum I believe) and make hairpieces for kids who have lost theirs from medical treatments,etc.

This is Delainey before

During

and after

Just another EASY way to make a huge difference in someones life.  Self esteem is a big deal for kids of all ages and this is a pain free donation that really helps them keep that chin up.  If you know anyone contemplating the big cut,....pass this along.

There are a couple of guys in the Elite Series doing it to.

Timmy Horton is one of them.

My wife done this about 2 yrs. ago when she had her hair cut short.  Good organization.

Sister is doing it in a couple of weeks!

Awesome if you ask me.

My fiance just donated 12" of her hair last month.  The local shop throws in the haircut for free if you donate 10" or more.

Her family and mine both have a history of cancer, so having the ability to give someone back the dignity they truly deserve would be worth it even w/o the free cut.

I am very proud of her for her contribution.

Kelly Jordon is the other.

Wife sent in a long lock a couple of months ago.

I tried to do it, but I ended up looking like Krusty the Clown.

A guy I go to Church with did this about a year ago.  He had long brown hair that was turning grey.  We joked about how there would be a sweet little girl walking around with grey hair ;D  He said that he actually asked about the process, and it takes 4-5 donors to make one wig, and all of the hair is dyed the same color.  Great organization!

Preach4bass, I checked out the website and they said that they can't use grey hair, but that they sell it and use the $'s.  I have been trying to talk myself into getting a flat top for a couple of years and thought this would be a good way to do it - I may look into it more.

I'll have to ask the guy in our Church about that.  I wonder who they sell the grey hair to? :-?
