I finally had *enough* and asked DD#2 to cut my hair on Friday. She took
off about 12 inches, and now it's just bru****ng my shoulders - barely
long enough to pull back into an elastic (but long enough, or I'd never
survive a Baltimore summer! That's the criterion for length - has to be
long enough to pull back.)
Anyway, I was going to donate the ponytail to Locks of Love, but then
DD#1 clued me into the controversy surrounding its worthiness as a
charity. I did a little poking around online and decided instead to send
my hair to Pantene, who uses donations for wigs for cancer patients.
They seem to have a really good track record.
The only thing is - hair can't be more than 5% gray, and I'd like to
think I'm close to the border on this. Can't figure out what 5% would
look like, and I'm not going to count them and figure it out the math!
