Hairy Donation

Bronwyn is not much for hair cuts.  It is always a crap shoot when we go to the hair dresser to see if she will actually consent to have it cut.

She had been telling us for a while that she wanted her hair cut short.  Riiiiiggghhhhttt.

So off we went one Saturday morning for. a hair cut.  I honestly expected that if in fact she did get a haircut, it would likely be a quick trim.

Ian sat with her while the hairdresser was wetting down her hair and getting sectioning it out.  The hairdresser asked her how much she wanted off the bottom.

All these locks soon to be gone.

Hair dresser, indicating about an inch, "How about this much?"

Bronwyn shakes her head no.  Uh oh I thought.

The hairdresser, indicating about two inches. "How about this much?"

Bronwyn shakes her head no.  Crap.  It is going to be one of those days.

Ian, sensing there might be a problem, steps in with his best daddy voice and says, ''You want it really short right?"  Bronwyn shakes her head yes.  Okay, I think.  Lets get through this.

In the end, Bronwyn had nine inches cut from her hair.  That much un treated hair is perfect for making wigs for cancer patients.  Now I doubt that Bronwyn understands what that means, but we certainly made a huge deal about how pretty she looks with her short hair, and how proud we are of her that she gave her hair to people who could really use it. 

Bronwyn is so proud of her hair.

A quick trip to the hairdresser made my entire month. Here is the link to where you can donate your hair.  Seek out Pantene Beautiful Lengths.
