Brianna has been nagging me for a couple of years to let her get her hair cut shorter. We’ve been growing her hair out since she was a toddler, and she is now 10 years old. I was so proud of her long hair, so I kept telling her no. After listening to her cry and yell every time I brushed her hair out, I decided it was time to let her do what she wanted with her hair. She told me she wanted to donate the hair to Locks of Love. We had been looking at the website that showed picture of the kids with no hair wearing their new wigs that were made from donations. She was intrigued, and wanted to help. So I reluctantly made a hair appointment for her. She had no second thoughts at all.
Here, the ponytail is getting cut off.
Holding up her cut off ponytail that will be donated. (before the hair is cut and styled) See how crooked her hair looks? That’s because she tipped her head to the side when Liz cut the ponytail off.
I can’t believe I’m doing this! (as Mom wipes a tear)
I think I’m gonna like this!
Putting on the final touches. She wanted Liz to style her hair with a flip.

Before the haircut - my beautiful girl.
After the haircut - stylin’!!!!
