My hubbie and I donated our hair in April as a tribute to our baby Anna-Sara, who we delivered at 22 weeks and 5 days, she died the day she was born. It was his first time and I have the Alfalfa photos to prove it. It was a wonderful affirming experience for us to share and we are glad we did because it felt right to us. <BR/>I also have a niece who has alopecia from living too near a power plant that spewed toxins into the air while she was outside playing. Her wish for this Christmas is to get a wig that fits. She is four. <BR/><BR/>All that said. It is your head. You are lovely. You could wear your hair anyway, including the 'Sinead O' shaved thing. Put your hand on your upper tummy and think about a different color ... how's your tummy feel? Then think short hair ... now how are you? Think shorter cute style, thing Christina Applegate, whatever. Go with the one that gives you the good tummy feel. Trust your gut.Donna-Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06326676692958489141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7919889744528028610.post-54867459926433801502008-10-20T10:01:00.000-07:002008-10-20T10:01:00.000-07:00I was also dealing with this dilemma recently. My ...I was also dealing with this dilemma recently. My hair is already kinda short, but I wanted to go much shorter. My decision? I'm letting it grow until it's long enough to donate and I'm chopping it all off. Not bald of course, but it'll be short.<BR/><BR/>I say do it. If you don't like it your hair will grow back. You can probably still pull it back at that length, but it'll be a really small ponytail. Andrew calls mine my baby buki because it looks like my buki blush brush when I have it pulled back.Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00127352109864311703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7919889744528028610.post-75786887129886349172008-10-18T08:55:00.000-07:002008-10-18T08:55:00.000-07:00I just cut mine shorter again, based on a photos a...I just cut mine shorter again, based on a photos accompanying an article about graying hair in Cooking Light.
