Meet Makari, one of our wonderful hair donors! He lives in Michigan and wanted to help a child in his state by growing his hair out for donation. When he was ready to make the cut, mom captured the moment in pictures - look at how long his hair is! It will certainly make an incredible wig for another child. Makari's hair will now be walking around on a kid's head right here in his community. To learn about how you can donate hair, please visit our website: http://www.wigs4kids.org/donate-hair.html
