Wigs for Kids! Progress!

This website uses cookies. It is Google powered after all so, duh!

Doing all that I can to bring awareness to this wonderful organization and my goal.







My Hair Length Approximately
June 8th
Progress September 4th

So ready to cut my hair off! Still need to grow it three or four more inches. Wigs for Kids wants donations to be at least twelve inches long. They would really prefer fourteen inches long or longer. So I am going to have to maybe grown my hair down to the middle of my back.

My previous blogs on the subject.

Wigs for Kids! My First Blog

I thought my hair was just taking to long to grow. If I compare my progress now the my hair in December. My guess is I will be writing my final blog in September of 2020. Must stay strong! Must hang in there! Must not cut me hair!

Wigs for Kids! Part Two!

It looks like my hair growth has stalled, in February. Need to start taking better care of it. 

Wigs for Kids! Part Three! I am Getting Antsy!

Progress is slow

Just to let you know. I am not interested in any MLM hair growing vitamins. If you slide into my comment with that nonsense. I will delete your comments and block you!

Wigs for Kids! Part Two!

   Part One of this blog!
    

     Every year for my birthday. I like to make a donation to a charitable organization.  Still working on the enormous task of growing my hair out for donation. This organization makes wigs for kids that have lost their own hair. Due to illness or other reasons. The organization is called, Wigs for Kids!  

     It can be difficult. Whenever I see a cute, soft and wavy bob. They are all cute! The temptation to cut and color my hair is strong. It is much harder is to go through your young life without hair. Hair is such an important part of our self esteem. Maybe it shouldn't be, but it is. Persisting in this goal. 


The length of my hair now!

     I knew that my hair wouldn't be long enough by my birthday. So starting a Fundraiser. Seemed like a really good idea. The idea is to raise $1,800. Enough to make one wig. The recipients and their families don't get charged. Erin's Birthday Fundraiser, For Wigs for Kids!

My hair length from December 13, 2018

     Found some great tasting Gummy hair vitamins. As well as attempting to eat healthy food and get plenty of exercise.

Wigs for Kids!

          Recently I received an email about my blog. If I didn't publish something soon. It would be deleted. It has been too long since I wrote anything. Here goes!

          I am not ready to write about my health and fitness journey,  yet. That blog is coming soon. I didn't want 'Ordinary Girl' to disappear forever. Not after all the blood, sweat and tears that has been poured into it. Okay, okay a little to much drama!



This is the length of my hair when I decide to donate
I can't remember the exact month


Let's get to the reason behind these ramblings. Every year around my birthday. I like to do an act of service. 
(Insert, shameless tooting of my own horn)
This year the chosen charity is; Wigs for Kids! Not only growing out my own hair and planning to donate that. Since that will take a little long while. Planning to make a monetary donation. Plus hosting a fundraiser on Facebook. This will happen around my birthday! Which is in March, stay tuned.



My December progress!
       
Well maybe it is a little bit longer brushed out?
I still have a long way to go.


What is the reason behind choosing Wigs for Kids? Remember when you were growing up. If you had a bad hair day? It was just the worst. (It is still pretty bad honestly) When you were on the receiving end of a bad haircut? It had to grow out and it took forever. Even worse? A hideous haircut before a big, much photographed event. I received the ugliest haircut before I took my senior pictures. Not only did it make the pictures hideous. The cut took forever to grow out. 
Hair and how it looks is so important. Imagine having an illness that causes hair loss? That would be utterly devastating.

Choosing Wigs for Kids was a personal decision. While there are other charities that accept hair for donation. Surely they do good work.  It isn't my goal to disparage any other charities. Or their operations. Just wanting to draw deserved attention to this very wonderful charity.

I really need to grow my hair 14 inches Plus. From the back of my neck. Here is some information if anyone else is interested.

Donate a Ponytail. No highlights for me. For a year or more. It is for the kids. It will be okay.



This organization is also on Facebook

And on Twitter


Now I have to go and order some Sugar Bear Hair, vitamins. This isn't sponsored. Hearing good things about that vitamin brand. I am hoping that it will expedite the process.

I decided to stick with my current hair multi vitamin by Eufora

PS. If you leave me a comment in another language. I will delete it
