I can't believe that I haven't written a blog in almost three weeks! The overload of homework from school and working every weekend means I have had literally no time to even socialise with friends, never mind write a blog. But, I finally have time to which I'm glad.
A few weeks ago I posted a blog about my decision to donate my hair to The Little Princess Trust. It seems forever ago that I wrote that blog and decided to donate my hair.
Beforehand, my hair was super long, and reached my waist. I loved it and had spent four years trying to get it to this length. Then I made the brave decision that I wanted to donate it.
And on the 28th February, I finally did. To be honest, I was so scared and nervous for different reasons.
Would I suit short hair?
What if it was cut too short?
What if my hair wasn't even suitable to donate?
What if I get no donations?
The event went without a hitch, and I couldn't be more happy with the results. I donated a whopping 18 inches of hair to The Little Princess Trust, and have collected a lot of money, around the £600 mark! I am so overwhelmed with the amount of support I was given by friends, family and strangers alike.
I expected my hair to be slightly longer than what it is, but at the end of the day, more hair was donated. It makes me so happy to think that a girl who has no hair will receive a real hair wig and be even more beautiful than they are already.
I would just like to thank everyone who has donated to the charity and supported me, and if you have ever had the thought of donating your hair, do it!
