Guidelines for acceptable donations:

If you have non-bleached hair that is 10 inches or over and you would like to donate it to Lock Of Love we will complementary cut and send your hair for you!

Hair that is colored or permed is acceptable. Hair cut years ago is usable if it has been stored in a ponytail or braid. Layered hair is acceptable if the longest layer is 10 inches, and may be divided into multiple ponytails. Curly hair may be pulled straight to measure the minimum 10 inches. 10 inches measured tip to tip is the minimum length needed for a hairpiece. Hair that has been bleached (usually this refers to highlighted hair) is not usable. If unsure, ask your stylist. We are not able to accept bleached hair due to a chemical reaction that occurs during the manufacturing process. Hair that is swept off of the floor is not usable because it has not been cut while bundled in a ponytail or braid. Hair that is shaved off and not in a ponytail or braid is not usable. You may divide your hair into multiple ponytails, and cut each one off before continuing to shave. We cannot accept dreadlocks, wigs, falls, hair extensions or synthetic hair. Our manufacturer is not able to use them in our children’s hairpieces.
