50 People Before And After Cutting Off Their Long Hair To Donate It (New Pics)

He is a pediatric physical therapist and works with a wide variety of patients. A lot of them have had to shave their hair due to surgeries.

Nikhilesh says, "I've always had a complicated relationship with my hair. Growing up, teachers used to tell me I needed to comb my hair, and the other kids would say it looked like a bird's nest. This created a lot of insecurity about my hair, so I started straightening it in high school to try and fit in with everyone else. One day, I didn't straighten my hair, and a girl told me my hair looked beautiful. Long hair has given me so much confidence and helped me care less about other people's opinions. Although I'm nervous about losing this part of my identity that has grown with my hair, I think I'm ready to experience something new. These locks have empowered me in so many ways, and I'm glad they will continue to make a difference, empowering kids that have lost their hair to help them look like the rockstars they truly are."

Vince was inspired to grow out his hair because our niece had alopecia. The time he grew his hair, her hair started growing again. So we are hoping his donation will help another sweet child in need.

I had my personal "great cut" today. After 4-5 years of growing, I donated my hair. Let's go for another round!

I just donated my hair to "Wigs For Kids". I do it every 4-years cause I was a patient who had a procedure to remove a tumor in my brain when I was very young. I was lucky enough not to go through the chemo treatment,  but it still took a long time to recover.
 
If anyone here reads this, it would be kind to donate something like money, plasma, blood marrow, hair, or even just a little bit of your time to spend with those who don't have the privilege to even step out of the hospital so they know they're not alone. This would be a kind gesture.

I started growing out my hair at the start of the pandemic. I was able to avoid catching COVID for 3-years, only to get it about a month ago. Felt like it was time to get it cut. I work for an organization that hosts 5k each year to support a local family in need. To help raise money for the little boy we are running for, I challenged my employees to donate money to the 5k. For every dollar that they donated, they could vote for a hairstyle. At the end of the voting period, whichever hairstyle had raised the most money would be how I cut my hair. Bald pulled ahead and won by a landslide.
 
I cut off 14 inches of curls yesterday and donated them to "Wigs For Kids". I will miss my curls, but hopefully, I'll be able to help someone else have their own head full of curls.
