Earlier today, Child Two had an overabundance of hair.
Now it's gone.
She'll be sending her plethora of hair to Eva & Co. Wigs' Hair Donation program, the very place that gave our cousin a free wig just last week.
We can't quite remember how long Child Two's been growing her hair to donate--over a year, we're sure, but less than two. Although it was long enough several inches ago, we had to time the cut so that it didn't interfere with her ballet shows. Now, as the weather is warming up and the next show is months away, and as our cousin is going through chemo, it seemed like the perfect time.
This occasion marked her first real grown-up hair appointment, with a shampoo and a scalp massage and everything. Child Two was relieved that the stylist is as quiet as she is, so she didn't have to make small talk.
She's planning to grow another plethora of hair over the next year or two and then donate it again.

Bravo Susan and Susan's dear daughter!!! She looks great in her new "do"
I am partial to her new hairstyle, a certain little girl I know has the same one.......
Way to go #2!
You are an inspiration to me and cancer survivors all over the world.
You rock! (And so does your Mom!)
I'm envious of that beautiful hair! And that she can grow another arm's length worth in such a short time!
What a lovely purpose. You must be quite proud of her.
What an incredibly thoughtful thing to do! You must be proud to have such a thoughtful and giving daughter.
