Heartfelt story: Scott, the owner of Shear Pointe Hair Restoration Center was contacted by the sister of a wonderful lady whose last wish was to donate her hair. Scott was asked if he knew how this could happen since he operates a hair restoration company. As one of our registered supporting cosmetology locations, he called Maggie's Wigs 4 Kids of Michigan to see if we would accept her hair upon passing. We said of course, since we often receive calls from caring families around the world who wish to make this type of donation and watch their loved one's legacy live on. He went and harvested her hair and delivered it to our Wellness Center. We are always so deeply touched by this very generous gift!
