Some good news

In my previous post, I wrote about my thought of chopping the longest ponytail into two because I thought I could never get something that long. I was wrong.

Last Saturday, 3 donors donated their hair. One of the donors, Karan, donated her 23 inches of hair, making it the second longest hair donated so far. Karan’s daughter also donated her 17 inches lock.

Dawn’s had her 16 inches cut in January, hoping that it could be used for a good cause. Dawn is also the first person from the public who approached me. So far, all the donors were either friends of mine or being approached by me. Really appreciate Jolene for the help in creating the awareness.

We will be making our next wig(s) hopefully soon. I am still waiting for an organisation to get back to me in order to proceed. As usual, donors will be informed once their hair is being used.


Untangled and ready to be used

Finally, I have managed to untangled the hair and had it tied into multiple ponytails. Next will be combining all into one ponytail for easy keeping. It will be an easier job… but not as easy as you might think.

I have updated the donors’ page with donors’ name, photo (if granted permission to use) and the length of hair donated. All the recent ponytails donated are about 16 inches long, which means that I can finally able to use it with Jillia’s 16 inches hair which she donated last year. =)

There is one long ponytail which I think it’s very hard to come by; Ivy’s 25 inches hair. I don’t think I will be able to get another similar to go with this length, so probably have to chop into two in order to use it. Or shall I wait?

I will be updating this site

There will be some minor design and layout changes in this blog. I will also be doing some updating on the contents starting today. It will take some time to complete, so stay tuned.

I would also like to thank Jolene for mentioning my cause in her blog post titled The 2 Brave Botaks about week ago. Thanks Jolene for helping to spread the words. Greatly appreciated!

Win-Win Solution

My friend texted me on Thursday night saying that she has finally got a new look.

She cut her almost waist length hair into a short bob and donating her hair for my cause. Thanks Peixian!
