On Wednesday May 11th I participated in the Locks of Love cut-a-thon at Salon 2000. I donated about 11 inches of hair to Locks of Love who will then make prostheses for people who have lost hair due to cancer and other medical conditions. I had a lot of fun at the salon that day getting my hair done. Before I arrived there were at least 20 donations and then while I was there they had 4 or 5 other ladies get their hair chopped off at the same time as I got my haircut. It was fun because it was like watching a makeover TV show in person.
After the haircut there was a lady there from Dermalogica that had a special tool that shows what kind of skin damage you have experienced as you age. It shows where your skin is dry, oily, and damaged from the sun. I have always wanted to see what my skin looked like using this tool so I was excited to give it a shot. To my surprise I didn’t have as much sun damage as I thought I would. For being a sun worshipper in my youth it looks like I did pretty good with the sunscreen on my face. So not only did I get a great new haircut I also received a skin analysis. |

This is the second time I have donated my hair to Locks of Love but it was my first time participating in a cut-a-thon, I think it is a great cause and it made me feel good to help other people.
I love my new haircut!
