Locks of Love

We've been talking about this for a LONG time and today was the right day to act. Anika is donating her hair to "Locks of Love". Up until Becky walked in the door, I wasn't sure if Anika was going to go through with it. (She kept asking, "Are you SURE it will grow back?") Now she is bouncing off the walls with delight. She is so happy that she can brush it herself and put it in a ponytail.
A bit nervous:

Measuring and assuring Anika that there is plenty of hair left:-)

The cut!!!!!

Some hair to donate:

Getting her first "real" haircut (not just a trim):

Couldn't be happier:

A low ponytail:

The final look:
Sassy:

She looks beautiful! And as a "long hair person," I can tell you I'm sure you'll both find her new 'do much easier to wash, dry, brush, etc. Yay! So cute!

What an awesome thing to do, Anika! The new do looks great! It's fun to see our favorite stylist "Miss Becky" in your pictures too! :)
