                no I did not keep it. But the salon will handle donating it to Locks For Love which makes wigs for children with cancer. I donate 10 inches twice a year. (or atleast I try to - last time I had it cut to my mid neck so I would have enough this time - now its about at my shoulder) I will take some pics and post them.

                  Thats great news, ur hair must grow very quickly if you are able to donate 10 inches twice a year. Looking 4ward to seeing piccies.

                    ( scissors and CLippers at the ready ) RIght ! who is up for shaving off a few pounds????? Hair can get pretty heavy ( I know because I lugg bags of the stuff out to the garbage at my salon) but I dont think all of that 5 pounds could be hair -- I think the whooshie fairy decided to have a visit along with the hairdresser! well done

                      My hair does grow fast, but sometimes to stretch it I have to cut it shorter than I wanted. I prefer shoulder length well now, but in January I had to have it cut to my mid neck to make 10 inches. All depends, because I had to wait so late in the year to get this haircut I won thave 10 inches by January next year. Anyway the pics -

                      Me before I had children - when I loved my long hair and it looked good on me - my goal is to wear my clothes from this weight again. Only about 32 more pounds, but it seems like so much more

                      Me on September 21, 2007 - working with another storyteller at a school - You can not really see my hair but you can tell long hair on me at a bigger size just wasn't working - this skirt doesnt fit now that I have lost weight so I look bigger, but its on of my favorites to tell stories in.
