Hairy Oil Spill
I’ve donated hair to Locks of Love twice–almost 3 feet of hair total. Until today, I thought that was the highest purpose for my hair trimmings, but it turns out you can also rescue baby seals with your lovelocks. I’m definitely making sure my salon sends their hairballs to this nonprofit, Matter of Trust.
I had no idea the protein mass spewing out of my skull had so many uses once it’s detached from me. Next they’ll tell me that hair can replace cotton… and can openers… and plastic bags. I’m waiting.
Edit:
I got a haircut and found out that my hair stylist (who also owns the salon) was way ahead of me, and does indeed send hair trimmings to Matter of Trust. Bravo, Bravo!
