Natalie's Third Time Donating Hair

Summer is a great time to donate your hair, enjoy a new look for the season and help the Michigan children we serve. It is wonderful to see many of our supporters return every few years, like Natalie who just donated her hair for the third time to Maggie’s Wigs 4 Kids of Michigan! She commemorated the end of the school year with a fresh style, delivered her hair in person at our Wellness Center and picked up a Girl Scout patch to proudly wear on her uniform.

Mom writes, “In recognition of Natalie’s hair donation, we want to give a special thank you to the Tricho Salon staff. One of their clients heard Natalie's inspiration behind cutting her hair so it could be donated locally...and they paid for Natalie's haircut! Staff, Natalie and I were all in shock and shared a round of misty, happy tears! We are so incredibly touched with the generosity of this kind gesture.”

This is one of the many great experiences we hear about from our hair donors. If you’re contemplating a hair donation, you can find all the necessary information on our website here: http://www.wigs4kids.org/donate-hair.html
