Locks of Love uses less than one third of the hair they receive. (and I’m pretty sure they aren’t using the hair to buy TV spots.)I should also mention that they actually don’t give people hair. They sell it. What good is a charity that doesn’t give free things to people in need? That’s not a charity. That’s a for-profit business.I recommend Pantene Beautiful Lengths.–Nidoqueen[here’s] a reliable source on Forbes.com Do not give them your precious locks!Wigs for kids is also great. When I donated I went through them because they were the only group that would accept donations of just 8” (and hair that was dyed.) Either way, don’t do locks of love.Spread the word, because people still think Locks of Love is THE hair charity, when in reality, they rather suck.Wigs for kids is who i went with when i donated. I liked them.Thank you people for mentioning Wigs for Kids. Got a foot of hair I’ve been waiting to donate since I found out about LoL, and been trying to find a new charity to donate it to. Now I have one.I’ve heard this before, so I gave mine to a charity done by a local hospital in the city just to the south of me that gives 100% free wigs to kids with alopecia who can’t grow hair at all.Seconding this. Donated 15" to wigs for kids this summer, fuck locks of love.W4K donates to childhood cancer patients as well as burn victims, kids with alopecia, auto-immune disorders or any other condition that caused them to not have hair.I last donated a length of hair to Locks of Love because I couldn’t find an alternative at the time and thought a 20% chance of being helpful was better than nothing. It’s good to know there are alternatives now for when I next make a major hair cut: Wigs for Kids: https://www.wigsforkids.org/donate-your-hair/Pantene Beautiful Lengths: https://pantene.com/en-us/brandexperience/make-the-cut -- source link
