Elle's Hair with Heart challenge

I'm chopping my hair and donating it.

You all know I have very long hair. I'm making a big change and going to a shaggy pixie cut and it would be a shame to just throw my amazing hair away.

I will be donating my hair to be made into a wig for someone who has lost their hair due to a medical condition.

I'll be chopping it on the 24th of June.

Wigs can cost families up to $6,000, lasting 1-2 years, meaning families can spend tens of thousands of dollars on the purchase of wigs throughout a child’s youth. By making a donation to Variety - the Children's Charity, you can help provide a wig or other vital equipment to a child in need. Thank you for helping kids in need.

My Updates

Chopped!

Sunday 26th Jun
I plaited my hair into 4 plaits, and the kids chopped them off. They're going in the post tomorrow to Heart With Hair.

Chop chop day!

Friday 24th Jun
It's Chop Chop Day!
I've given my hair its final wash before the big chop.
Final time of needing a mountain of conditioner, too! 😂

Loving my donors!

Tuesday 21st Jun
Thank you to everyone who has donated so far!
And, not only have you donated, but you've also covered the processing fees! ❤
You're amazing.

Trinity again.

Tuesday 21st Jun
One time, decades ago, work held a dress up Christmas party.
We decided to go as Trinity and Neo from The Matrix. $20 later, I had my hair cut and that was the total outlay for our costume.

We won Best Dressed.
Our prize was Steak Knives. 😁

My hair will be short like Trinity's again.

Thanks for all the support
