Donating Your Hair to Make a Human Hair Wig

Recently, more people have become aware about donating their hair to make human hair wigs. Donating your hair is such a wonderful cause that helps cancer patients and other people who have lost their hair. However, before you decide to cut off all those luscious locks, there are a few steps you need to take.

-First, choose a specific foundation you would like to donate to. There are hundreds of different organizations. Locks of Love is one of the most popular.

-Next, you must follow all the requirements of your specific organization. You hair cannot be damaged, dyed, bleached, or chemically treated in any way. Vegetable dyes and semi-permanent dyes are usually okay. Most require your hair to be 8-12 inches long. If you have wavy or curly hair, you must straighten it first and then measure it.

-When you are ready to cut your hair, find out if your organization must cut your hair for you or if you are allowed to go to a salon. If you go to a salon, tell them you are donating your hair. Your hair should be freshly washed, dried completely, and contain no hair styling products. Your hair must be in a ponytail when it is cut and cannot touch the floor.

Donating your hair to make a human hair wig is a great cause so start letting your hair grow today!
