My grand mother passed away 14 years ago from cancer and I want to do this in her honor. I want to donate my hair for the making of wigs for cancer patients.

Sounds like she was bored with how her hair looked. I speak from experience. My husband loves when I have long hair, too. I got it cut above my shoulders once & even though he preferred the long hair, he appreciated the new look. It's only hair. It will grow out! On the flip side, one time my husband shaved all his hair off & it looked awful. His head was white where the hair used to be & he had a tan everywhere else. I cringed looking at it, but after a couple of weeks, it was long enough to hide the white ring. Don't let this haircut get to you so much. Now that you see it has increased her confidence, why don't you use that to your advantage? I really do think she was tired of the old look. Her hair should not determine your feelings. Does she not have other qualities that turn you on? Are you taking this as a slap on the face as if she were disrespecting you? Please don't! This may be the change she needed to feel better about herself & if you start appreciating the positive, you may just end up with more in the bedroom!

I donated my hair for cancer patients and all u hav to do is go to ur salon and say "hi i want to get my hair cut and i want to donate my hair to locks of love." U'r hair will be sent to make wigs 4 patients with cancer. The salon i went to even gave me a free haircut because of it.

Locks of love. I did it myself two years ago and it has meant a lot to me to be able to help someone like that. I still have my card they sent me.
Here is the link below. Some salons give a free hair cut for the denotation. And they have this thing where you can upload a picture of yourself and see what you look like with short hair.

Another one to consider in addition to Locks of Love is an organization called Wigs for Kids.
That's so sweet and thoughtful of you! What a wonderful way to honor your grandmother's memory.

i've done this before. if you're going to a hair sallon tell your stylist that you want to donate your hair to locks of love and she'll tie your hair in a pony tail and cut off the 14 inches and give you an address so that you can mail the hair to locks of love.

Locks of Love is a public non-profit organization that provides hairpieces to financially disadvantaged children under age 18 suffering from long-term medical hair loss from any diagnosis.

Try http://www.locksoflove.org/
I dont know if they work with cancer patirents, since typically if someone survives the therapy with cancer, their hair will grow back.
This is a great organization that helps chiclren who have long term hair loss.
Hope it helps and its great that you are so thoughtful! :D
