Locks of Love

Locks of Love is an organization that provides hairpieces to children who have lost their hair due to some medical condition. We were very fortunate with Isabella in that first of all, she completely did not care when her hair fell out during the chemotherapy.  Secondly, her hair came in so nicely afterwards, and as many of you can attest, has been super curly!

Several months ago, Annalise mentioned that she would like to get her haircut and donate her hair to Locks of Love.  Since they require at least 10 inches of hair, we had to wait a bit to let her hair grow so that it would still be about shoulder length after it was cut.  Well, today was the day she got her hair cut and we captured the entire event. 

Special thanks to Greg and Tony’s salon in Westport, CT who provide the service of cutting and shipping the hair free of charge!
