Donate your hair to charity



Locks of Love is a public non-profit organization that provides hairpieces to financially disadvantaged children in the United States and Canada under age 18 suffering from long-term medical hair loss from any diagnosis. We meet a unique need for children by using donated hair to create the highest quality hair prosthetics.. The prostheses we provide help to restore their self-esteem and their confidence, enabling them to face the world and their peers.


The minimum length required for a donation is a 10” pony tail . So if you have LONG hair and are planning to cut it, consider donating it to Locks of Love.

If you only have an 8” pony tail to donate, The Pantene Pro-V Beautiful Lengths campaign collects hair donations from throughout the United States and Canada and turns them into wigs which are distributed free to women suffering from the loss of their hair due to the effects of chemotherapy needed to fight the cancer that is ravaging their bodies.
