Hillary Swank Chops Her Locks For Charity
Filed under: campaigns, donations — michael @ 10:34 am
Airing today, Hillary Swank will be a guest on Oprah and do something a little out of the ordinary by cutting off about nine inches of her hair. This is no stunt, however, as Swank has been growing out her locks with the goal of donating them to Pantene Beautiful Lengths; an initiative dedicated to supporting and encouraging women who have lost their hair during cancer treatment. From the article,
“‘It’s taken months to get to this moment,’ Winfrey says. ‘It involves a two-time Academy Award winner, a sharp object, and me.’
‘I’ve been growing it for the last six months to donate my hair,’ Swank says. ‘I’ve been taking a lot of vitamins and taking really good care of it, knowing that it would go to a woman in need.’”

I did Locks of Love for kids doing kimo and stuff, plenty of people do, its just celebs who get all the glory.
It’s wonderful that celebrities like Hillary and Oprah are raising conciousness of this important initiative. Check out what kids, like Kiwi Magazine’s Maylee, are doing. Maylee cut her waist length hair for Locks of Love and invited other kids to do the same.
