Yesterday (Thursday, June 28th, 2012) was nerve racking and exciting. I have been growing my hair out to donate since July 2008 (when I first met Ben). When I decided to grow my hair out to donate, I had just cut my hair as short as ever. They shaved the back of my head all the way down. Within the first year it grew like crazy, 5-6 inches, so I figured that I would be able to donate it on my 25th Birthday and still have rather long hair still... I wouldn't wait any longer. Between the extreme heat this week, the prospects of the same next week, and finding out that I only need 8 inches for donation prompted me to get it done now.
