An excited young lady gives up her hair for Locks of Love - part 2

Hair Raisers is an annual event in Fort Collins to raise hair for Locks of Love. Tuana Hair Design was on site to cut some hair. This young lady was very excited to be having her hair cut off. In this part she sees the results for the first time.

I've uploaded a better version of this video now that I've learned how to use my editing software more correctly. :)

It's well known by now that Locks of Love is a scam.

@PuppyPaws18 Most of the donations get sold, not used in wigs. Further, very few (if any) go to cancer kids. They go to people with a non-fatal disease called alopecia. And even those are not free! They are sold on a sliding-scale basis. Locks of Love receive tens of thousands of hair donations every year but have produced only about 300 wigs on average over the years it's been around. It has a large *cash reserve* (due to selling donations, etc.) that has grown year by year.

@athompson7 Absolutely, it's a sham, but this is a nice cut as short hair goes.
