If you're anything like me, cutting your hair often comes with conflicting emotions. At first, you look at the mirror and admire the courage it took you to make such bold changes but then you glance down, see all the locks of hair laying around the chair, and can't help but think if it was a mistake.

However, finding yourself in such a situation is a privilege in and of itself—some people have lost all their hair because of cancer treatments, alopecia areata, and other reasons.

Luckily, as we at Bored Panda have already shown in one of our previous lists, more and more folks are donating their hair to create more wigs and restore confidence in those who already have it tough. After all, the last thing they need is more rude stares on the street.

The good thing is that since we released the piece, we've seen many more of these unsung heroes. Below are some more of them.

    Today I Proudly Watched My 19 Year Old Son Cut Off His Hair For Those Who Have Lost Theirs From Cancer

    Person with long hair before and shorter hair after donating to cancer patients, both wearing face masks in a salon.

    It took 2.5 years to grow the 32cm plaits. He is very unassuming, didn’t tell anyone why he was waiting so long to do it... His quiet way of making a difference. Proud mummy moment.

    Today was the day to cut them all off, send them in, and start over again. Hopefully, I can make as many kids as possible happy with a new set of hair.
