• Hair Peace Charities - be generous!

  If you have seen me in the last few months, you know that my hair is really getting long - and that picture of me over there to the left is dated.  I haven't had my hair cut in over a year. YIKES!  I just had been too busy for a haircut - ridiculous you may think, but it's true.  Well, i then decided to actually GROW it so that i could donate it to Locks of Love.  I  need 10" minimum to donate.  I've decided to continue to grow it until at least the spring.  If i cut it now i would probably have the minimum length, and the longer the better.  So in a few months, when i have a good, long crop (and it's a little warmer outside) i will probably return to the style at the left.  The hair pieces for children are very expensive and it takes 6-10 pony tails to make a prosthesis. 

  IN THE MEAN TIME... i received an email from another great DJ, Bonny Diver.  She has a fabulous organization called Hair Peace Charities.  HERE is the website.  http://www.hairpeace.org/  This organization provides financial assistance for patients needing wigs due to chemotherapy.  Please consider sending a contribution and please BE GENEROUS!  These hair pieces are less expensive, since adults can wear beautiful, ready-made wigs, and every $100 buys a wig for a woman undergoing chemotherapy.

  Just a reminder that Bellissima donates 10% of all print sales to charities.  This month (December) we are donating to the American Cancer Society.  (They will benefit from a lot of Christmas print sales!)  We are hoping that after the New Year people continue to order prints because January will be Hair Peace Charities month. 

  THANKS FOR READING!
