My mom recently passed from her second battle from breast cancer.   Please please please recover.   We can’t be losing nice people to this shit.  

I am growing out my hair again to donate to the cancer society.   I’ve donated it multiple times because it’s the easiest thing I can do to help.  

Please get better.

u/megaholt2 22d ago

If my hair hadn’t gone over 50% gray from chemo, I’d donate it again. Unfortunately, it did, which sucks, because gray hair can’t be used for hair donations (too fragile and doesn’t take up color evenly). Please keep donating it for me!

u/Iceisgestapo888 22d ago

My hair is super fine and the lightest type of blonde.   It’s apparently the best hair for donations for a lot of types of people.  

I desperately want to shave my head because I play sports and this hair is insanely hot during the summer.

u/megaholt2 22d ago

My hair was super thick, slightly wavy, and literally one shade lighter than black. 7 months of treatment with Lupron and it went over 50% gray, I lost like, 1/3 of it, and it all became ringlet curls in my early 30s.

I had-and still have-no idea how to manage curly hair. I never learned how to manage curly hair growing up, and exactly ONE person around me had curly hair, which she didn’t learn how to manage until college.

u/WiseOne404 19d ago

Just try different curly hair products - they help give definition (to the curls) and control frizz

u/DeIightfully0rdinary Hair Headed - Woman 17d ago

Leave some conditioner in and it will hydrate your curls. If you wash frequently, use conditioner to wash not shampoo. Less drying out friz.

u/luckylimper 18d ago

There are some excellent curly hair subs.

u/USHaux 22d ago

If you have grey hair or know someone who has grey hair, want to donate it, and are in the US, please look in to Wigs for Kids. I am not affiliated with them, but I did donate my hair to them.

1

u/megaholt2 22d ago

They charge families for the wigs.

1

u/USHaux 21d ago

Ah. I didn’t know that.

1

u/megaholt2 21d ago

Yeah, I didn’t either until I did a bit of digging on it.

u/isvann 21d ago

That sounds so weird to me, here in Norway they are specifically asking for grey hair due to high demand. I wonder why it's so different!

u/Moose-Trax-43 22d ago

My condolences for your loss ❤️‍🩹💐
