Want to Donate your Hair?
Anyone can donate as long as the guidelines listed below are followed.
Guidelines For Acceptable Donations
-
Hair that is colored or permed is acceptable.
-
Hair cut years ago is usable if it has been stored in a ponytail or braid.
-
Hair that has been bleached (usually this refers to highlighted hair) is not usable. If unsure, ask your stylist. We are not able to accept bleached hair due to a chemical reaction that occurs during the manufacturing process. **If the hair was bleached years ago and has completely grown out it is fine to donate.
-
Hair that is swept off of the floor is not usable because it is not bundled in a ponytail or braid.
-
Hair that is shaved off and not in a ponytail or braid is not usable. If shaving your head, first divide hair into multiple ponytails to cut off.
-
We cannot accept dreadlocks. The manufacturer is not able to use them in children’s hairpieces. We also cannot accept wigs, falls, hair extensions or synthetic hair.
-
Layered hair is acceptable if the longest layer is 10 inches.
-
Layered hair may be divided into multiple ponytails.
-
Curly hair may be pulled straight to measure the minimum 10 inches.
-
10 inches measured tip to tip is the minimum length needed for a hairpiece.
