If you want to change up your look but you’re hesitating, doing a hair donation knowing that it will bring comfort to somebody else might be the motivation that you need. Here at Bored Panda, we found these great before nad after pictures of people who donated their long hair to charities that make wigs for people (often children and young adults) who have lost their hair due to cancer treatment, alopecia areata, and other medical causes. Getting a wig as a gift can bring some security and normalcy to kids who are struggling with losing their hair, and fortunately, hair is a renewable resource that these people had enough of to share.

Since about the age of 14, I’ve had long hair. It makes my heart so happy that I am giving 16 inches of my hair to a nonprofit that is dedicated to helping children and families affected by life threatening and life-long illnesses. I feel so lucky and grateful to have hair that makes me feel beautiful, and I hope my hair can do the same for someone else. I gave myself the gift of freedom and growth, and in return, I gave a child in need a lovely gift as well. Because if my hair can make someone feel a little bit better, why wouldn’t I do it?

#100 Donated 12 Inches. Feel Like A Whole New Person
After a year-long debate, I finally chopped all my hair off. It feels good to donate, but that wasn't the only reason I did it. I think I needed a new chapter, and realized I was hiding behind my own hair: "Maybe no one will notice that there's nothing else beautiful about me." It was a wild experience, and I feel like a whole new person. Sassy, fun, and beautifully exposed.
