I gave my hair to Rochelle, a progeria patient

Decision to Cut my Hair

Donating my curly, healthy hair was one of the most fulfilling things I’ve ever done. It reminded me that something as simple as a haircut can bring comfort, hope, and confidence to someone battling illness or hair loss. Every strand carries kindness—and through this act, I realized that giving doesn’t always require grand gestures. If you’ve ever thought about it, take the step—your hair will grow back, but the joy you give can last a lifetime. Almost a year ago, I cut and gave my hair to a young and stunning lady who turned 18. She is Rochelle, a progeria patient.
