when people get cancer they usually loose their hair from the radiation treatments. this can be especially hard on kids, remember what it was like when we were growing up?the least little thing was an excuse for some one to break our stones about somthing or vice versa.
now,try to imagine,for a second, a young boy or girl with big dreams of being a superhero or a princess,having to go to school and be constantly hammered on for having no hair,not only do they have to deal with a horrible disease,but now they have to deal with the stares,comments and ridicule too.
www.stbaldricks.org is a charity that shows kids that,its ok to be bald.
normal everyday people will attend these events and get their head shaved,people from women to top company people to biker/trucker/father/whatever else you can think about me all the way to kids themselves.
i consider you guys and girls as an extention of my family,thats why i shared this with you. i'm not hitting anyone up for donations,if you want to thats cool,if not thats cool too. all i'm asking is that the next time your out and you see a child with a shiney head,don't stare,don't make them feel uncomfortable, just go about your buissness but remember how brave they are.
like i said,i'm not hitting anyone up for donations,if you want too,heres my thing http://www.stbaldricks.org/participa...ey=2009-64910# or my team name is hairs away

thanks, Danny.

Awesome thing to do !
When my brother was doing his second round of chemo, he dicided that he was gonna have a mohawk. S , he had it dont - bad thing was that when the chemo hit, he lost the center section of his hair first - it was kind of cool , he had a reverse mowhawk for about a week, then the rest fell out - Most people dont even think about how important your hair is to how yo ufeel about your self and how oeple view you- He saw several people every time he went out looking at him like he was a freak or something.

Id join you , but, Im about 3 inches away from doing this - http://www.locksoflove.org/

I got my last hair cut 12-7-08 , its about to drive me bonkers, but, Im so close- Im hoping that I can donate by June -

locks of love is really cool, my wife has donated 2 times,the first time was a few years back and the last was a few months ago.

i'm keeping this post bumped up,so it does'nt get lost in the mix.

GREAT!

I know there's a Lebowski fan out there thats gonna be very happy

I've been told that another long hair on this site recently donated to Locks of Love.
Can't wait for the picture!

i'm still waiting to find out who it is.
my big day is tomorrow,was kinda thinkin it might've been better if they held this event in slightly warmer weather,my head is gonna freeze without my hair,oh well,it's for a good cause so i can deal with it. phew,i'm gettin nervous,never had my head shaved before.

Cool thread, good job all!

its cool man, if you got a boy, do it together, me and my boy did it, we had fun with it. but its a bitch to maintain.

yep i did it last week,it was a really cool event, an i'm looking forward to doing it again next year. i'm somwhat half considering lettin it grow till next year and doing the locks of love thing.(i don't know how fast i'd grow and if i could stand it).i managed to raise some cash and that was cool, soto next year and thanks to all who helped.
